Well i started on this idea in Dec., did the ARC stuff took 3 weeks, then building dept 2 more weeks.

Waited for the actual pool.....finally came last Thursday.
The crane guy didn't show up:cus:

can't let that stop me! A few strong guys is all it takes,

I had a dig plan but it needed some tweaking, in the meantime I installed the Spa in ground built the forms for the concrete base to build an enclosed pergola rather than a bird cage.

Ran all the electrical and got my first building dept approval Monday.

Today did all the plumbing on the pool itself should be ready to drop it in the ground tomorrow or Thursday.

Oh fun, I did tweak my knee 2 weeks ago that slowed me down a bit, but it's almost better.

In between all this did most of the landscaping.

It makes me think there must be some definite energy benefits associated with the vegan/vegetarian lifestyle!

There is truth to that

Jimbo~~

Thank YOU for posting the photos... In your 'spare' time (LOL!), we would love to keep living vicariously through additional photos.

Congrats to you, for your new pool and spa! You have a wonderful summer ahead of you!!

TV now allows pergolas and gazebos? Interesting.

jimbo2012 05-01-2013 10:38 AM

U can see pergolas in the older sections so not a new deal

EdV 05-01-2013 11:25 AM

But you can see lawn flamingos and seven dwarf statues over there too.

and they are perfect for the area! :) the gnomes are pretty neat, too! there is nothing sterile and/or cookie-cutter about those properties! and their lots are larger with mature landscaping. and there is little or no traffic to interfere with, walking, biking and enjoying the peaceful nature of the area...but watch out on yard sale days! ;)

You’re over reacting again. My post was not judgmental, just factual. It’s a well known fact that the restrictions in the historical section of TV are more permissive than the newer sections. So it does not necessarily follow that pergolas allowed over there would necessarily be allowed in Jim’s district.

In either case if the pergola was included in his approved ARC plans, there should not be an issue.

I live south of 466 and I'm starting to see a lot of things, like pergolas and short fences around concrete slabs, etc. that I thought were not authorized. Hope it doesn't get to 6 ft privacy fences.

Bogie Shooter 05-01-2013 01:41 PM

No fences.

jimbo2012 05-01-2013 03:59 PM

Just because U see it doesn't mean it was approved
