rhyno Report post Posted April 15, 2016 Pool mechanical room had its foundation walls poured and now its framed up. We made changes from the original drawings so this was done separate from the house pour. We had to dig pretty deep to hit solid ground for this pillar to hold up the covered patio. The covered patio is really big as I wanted lots of shade in summer as it gets really hot here. The pool will be going on this side and I will have a retaining wall so the pool is on the main floor. I wanted it on the main floor so everything I use is on one level!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

07pearl Report post Posted April 15, 2016 Love it! I'm amazed at how fast everything is progressing! Whats "really hot" there? Lol , we should make a count and see how many times that gets posted over the course of the thread. He is just uploading pics of the progress slowly and is much farther ahead then he has currently posted . It just makes me laugh cause I feel every time I open this thread to check if there are more pictures , again someone posts how amazingly fast the house is being built lol. Ktown can be 30 to 40 degrees even sometimes in the summer . It's a beautiful summer lake town for sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyno Report post Posted April 15, 2016 The Tennis court had a little shed that was falling apart so I decided to keep the foundation and build a new shed to match the house. You can kinda see the original shed in the first picture. The cool thing is, even the shed has a lake view lol One last picture of my R8 in the driveway....
