Progress continues.

The remaining palms were moved and planted.














Glass tile now surrounds the gas fire pit.

The pool shed comes to rest.

It was amazing to watch the shed being gyrated around on steel pipes, cinder blocks, 2x4's and a hydraulic jack.














It took a lot of twisting, turning, pushing and pulling.















It came to it's final position perfectly. It got a little tweaked and the door won't close but we can handle that.














It needs a new tile roof and some paint to match the house. Now the old laundry shed is the new pool room.

The pool is full of water!

Friday afternoon around 3PM.














Saturday late morning.














Saturday late afternoon.














Sunday 3PM. Almost full.

3 Year Anniversary October 22nd

The remembrance flag is out for the 3rd anniversary of the Witchcreek Fire. We had a gathering with other fire survivors to make sure we stay in touch and continue to support each other.

Pool interior complete.

A whole team of guys showed up to Pebble Tech the pool surface. It started raining again just when they finished. It's cold outside!

25TH ANNIVERSARY - OCT. 19TH 2010

Twenty-five years of wedded bliss, and never a dull moment. It was pouring rain all day just like our wedding day.

Congratulations Nick!!! Passed CNA Certification.

This is not Nick, but it certainly could be. He has been hold up in his room for weeks doing school work. Today he passed his CNA certification now he can get a real job!



















The last of the palm trees were brought up yesterday. The landscape is slowly taking shape. So much goes into the infrastructure you just can't see the progress.














The multi-purpose shed made it's way back up to the house. Dave and Tracy are amazing how they move anything you want.















It will be my potting shed. I have a page torn out of Martha Stewart's magazine with the perfect set up. At the present time it remains a shed to protect building material.

Still more concrete!

The north patio and deck supports were poured today.




























John and Nick get power to the spa.

More concrete and more stone.

Quartzite flagstone is being placed between the concrete.













The footings for the deck were poured and the patio was finished today. I love seeing everyone here!

Beautiful Trees!

Jeff and I searched the local nurseries for these Mesquite trees. They are even more beautiful standing alone. It's difficult to choose when they are all stuck side by side.















Several are planted in front of the house. So nice to see green again.

The Jacuzzi is back!

Lot's of activity today, moving and planting trees. I just get to sit at the table with my arm propped up on pillows. This is not for me, the days seem to be 48 hrs. long.














The spa made it's way up to it's new pad.















Beautiful double rainbow from our hilltop.

Celebrating Birthdays

Beautiful sunrise, makes you stop and be thankful.














We did get to celebrate John's birthday.















We all made it to Grandpa's 90th birthday!
