Wow! The pool guys made great progress today. The pool is actually in the ground. The boys thought it was pretty fun to watch the big crane lift the pool off the flatbed truck and put it in the hole. Tomorrow the crew comes back to finish hooking it up to the pump, filling in the hole around the pool, and do the electrical work. It might even be ready to for us to take a dip by the end of the day. Next week the concrete guys will be out to pour the walkway around it. We're thinking about asking them to pour a little extra deck space out beside it to put some chairs and maybe a table. Also tomorrow, we've got two fence companies coming out to give us estimates. The plan is to chose one of them before the weekend is up and get the fence built ASAP. I can't wait until the whole yard is done.
The view from our deck. The small part on the back is the tanning ledge that will run down into the main pool.
This is the deep end of the pool - all the way to 6 feet. You can see the seats built in along the end. There is also a little ledge around most of the pool that you can stand on.
The shallow end of the pool starts at 3 feet. That's still a little deep for our guys but I'm sure they'll be swimming in no time! There's steps built in at this end along with another seat. You can see the saltwater pump in the background.
