Our Mountain Retreat

[Phillbo]

I have 4 Bose 151's hidden in shrubs in my back yard. The yard sounds fantastic while floating or grilling.

I've put my research on how to connect speakers "on the shelf" for the moment. Got a headache thinking about it. Decided to enjoy the day and look at the progress that's been made through the previous week. Retaining Wall and waterfall have been started, but we're redesigning the waterfall. Not real happy with the "diving board" look so the landscapers are revamping and removing the rocks that jut out over the pool. Too much of a temptation to climb on and jump. We didn't think it was a good idea with only a 6' deep end.

Looks great!!!! See what you mean about the diving board and I agree. Think they wanted a big splash!

Yep. Too much of a liability though...and it looked like a big tongue sticking out at you too. I'll be happy with a smaller ledge with a trickle down effect. Actually, the landscapers agreed with us once we explained our point of view. They're going to tear down most of it, relocate the unused rocks around the yard, and start over. They're a "mom and pop" shop and are super easy to work with.

Looking good!

Thanks Jim. Should look a little different tomorrow.

BTW, the "critters" are fine. Saw them sunbathing yesterday. Hoping they move on before the end of the week as the landscapers are going to be covering that area with flagstone.
