The feeding dock is done. Now the Nutria and ducks have a feeding station. Stainless steel post and cable still needs to be installed along the boardwalk.

Your pool is beautiful but ......ewwwww! You want to feed those rodents?? Hope I'm not offending you........ but I am just not a critter kinda gal. Ben knows. I'm even having a hard time looking at your pics! It's giving me the heeby jeebies. If they were near my pool...... I wouldn't be!!

BEN---- Why didn't you warn me not to look??? You're slacking!!!!

I am not offended at all. They are isolated from the back yard and the pool. There will also be a gate that will be the last barrier. They are part of the wildlife vista that we have. Actually their are coats made from Nutria hair. See how they hold the tortillas in their little paws.

And don't forget, I have the girls

We are now in the 11th and final month of our transformation. I say final month because here is what we have left to do: Final landscaping has started with some of the Cuban palm trees already planted. They have 50% of the plantings on site, with the remainder of the plantings and the grass yet to come. The kitchen and granite counter tops need to be finished, landscape lighting (99 light fixtures), Sunbrite TV, 12 outdoor speakers and 1 buried sub-woofer, outdoor fans, closing up both openings in the stucco block wall and the stone on the columns, travertine skimmer covers, 4 Mahogany gates are being built (2 eight feet wide and 2 three feet) wide and some other stone that will be put on the house.

This is the very first picture I took before we started the project



And now

Once you get it all done, you definitely need to get some more drone shots!

Wow... this is truly inspiring! Hope you're enjoying your incredible creation.

Also, I'm not a big fan of tile designs in pool but yours looks great.
