CANNON BALL!!

Our pool has officially been started! It's so exciting to watch the whole process unfold before my eyes, I probably sound like a dork, but I could sit and watch them work all day! It's amazing to me how an outline spray painted on the ground can turn into a huge, yet still the same shape, hole. How do they do it?!? Anyway, I thought I'd share my experiences with a few pic's, and of course when it's all done you better believe we'll be having a big pool party and everyone can run and do cannon balls into the deep end! Yipppeee!



This first picture is the outline, the shallow end is front and center and the deep end is back and to the right.












This is a little better perspective of the whole thing. Where the guy is standing is where a large rock waterfall will be, back and to the right is the deep end - 8 feet, and right up front is going to be an 18 inch Carribean shelf which then transitions to 3 ft and on.




This last picture was taken from our upstairs bathroom window, so there's a glare. It shows how big and how deep this thing is!
