That turned out great man!!!!!!
All your hard work has paid off. Not many people have a set-up that nice right outside their door. Call me slightly jealous.
Here's to the good times to be had

Thx dude!
Our last house/yard was way better. Had privacy, trees for shade, elevation change etc.
But w/aging parents 2 hrs away....., you do what you have to do.
As to it being right outside...., it’s partially a social experiment for me too.
I don’t relax very well.
I only seem to be able to, either on our boat on Lake Erie, or at my bro-inlaws pool.
So we figured, if we build one, will it pacify me??
Save us a ton of $$$ if it works.
If it doesn’t, it’ll add to resale
I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

Tell me about it. I live in a SNAFU world. I was working so much, before I was forced out of my job, that I didn't want to do anything on my day off, when I got a day off.
You should see the truck I ended up with trying to turn a dime on. I put less than 250 miles on it and the engine cratered. 8K later I have a Jasper rebuild in it. The crane stopped working on it... Now what?
Oh, don't buy a truck with a crane. The insurance is unreal!!!
Working on getting a shop built. Just when I started to get going this 'rona $hit hit the fan!
Oh, did I tell ya I bought another Youngblood? All I need now is a TX 19 and I'll have full set!!!
At least the old Porsche runs and drives!

Gary,
Just read through all of this - WOW - very impressed with your skills sir, that is absolutely beautiful. Wondering why they didn't go a little bigger on the pool size, but that's just the Monday morning Quarterback in me - Very nicely done.God, Country, and Fast Boats
