Here's an update on my project. It has taken me 2 months to get someone who knows how to do pool tile to come over and install it. We are scheduled to complete ALL tilework today. This spa should be up and running within a week...more pics will follow. The waterfall is 70% complete...that should be done in 3 more days...hopefully! Man, it's been a S L O W process but I think the end result will be well worth the wait. The Tiki Bar is operational and I will finish the little details when the weather cools off this fall and winter...

Here's two more pics...one is a night shot as requested and the other is one of me and my wahine enjoying our spa for the first time today...! I will post more pics as we near completion...right now we need to add lotsa foliage around the spa and some finish work--we discovered a couple of areas where grout is needed and some other minor things...I guess with a project this large there's bound to be a few odds-n-ends that need to be addressed before a project can be truly "finished". We're almost there!

One last pic for the time being...I planted 4 Queen palms and 2 bamboo bushes yesterday. It's getting too hot to do any more planting so this will be probably the last pic until winter when the weather finally gets nice. Hope you like!
