Well, we had a very heavy rain last night and the pool, gunite that is, is about 10% full of green water. On the bright side, they should be doing our tile and coping on Tuesday.

Hopefully we can get a few dry days so the decking can go in soon. The pb says they have to have three perfectly dry days before they can put on the top layer of the Sundek. I'll be meeting with him tomorrow or Tuesday to do the final layout on our deck. The more people we talk to, the more the wife and I are convinced we need more decking. I've made a sketch of what I'd like, but I'm afraid to find out the actual square footage.

One of the things I'm considering is adding a two foot path around the backside of the pool that will encompass the landscaping that will be going in - three palm trees, two sego palms and other shrubs. I'm trying to decide between doing that or maybe making a flagstone path myself for a more natural look (doesn't hurt that it would be cheaper too )

eljefe, any pictures of your build to share? I haven't seen a thread yet.
