More grass.......holly crap

We are finished with the landscaping, some irrigation systems and gardening still needs to get done, but all the concrete has been poured, all the walls are up, as well as a bunch of random posts.

As for the exterior lighting, we have gone with a lot of small garden lights from homedepot, and Kichler. The Kichler ones of course being more expensive. Kichler is one that we bought the 300W transformer from through a local irrigation and landscaping store.

Before I go anyfurther her is a photo of what the landscape was going to look like,,,, it is very similar to what turned out. Just replace the new extension in the back yard with grass.
Many many years ago, we ran teck wire from the panel to behind the hot tub as well as a couple other locations. It wasn't necessary for us to use tech wire, we could of simply run lumex wire shielded within a pvc pipe. But what is done is done. Since we have fed wire to behind the hot tub, I have installed a receptacle and switch ( for a post light) to power some garden lights in that area that can be switched on from inside. This is separate from the rest of the lighting that is being fed from the main 300 W transformer in the front which will be on a timer.

July 5th update!

I'll start by saying that bathroom progress has come to a standstill. Right now it's painted, and my dad started to do the tile work around the tub and shower unit. But that was a couple weeks ago. But I guess on a positive note, my brothers have gotten used to not having a shower in the house.
A lot of progress has been made outside in the last couple weeks. The rockwall is basically complete, with all the concrete caps finished. They still need to pour the platform around the hot tub, and pour dirt in certain areas and such. They where waiting on the irrigation system to be installed, which thanks to Marco, I believe is on its way. The West side ( as seen above ) of the house was once again ..... i believe for the 3rd time...... was dug up and the foundation was patched and sealed. This TIME PRoperly !!!!

Rockwall almost done.

Well well well , it looks as though we are finally going to finish something. The rock wall is just about done. I got news today that they have also pored the front walkway; but of course, with a few complications. I sounds as though it took 3 cement trucks to get the job done since the first one didn't have enough, and the second one, they messed up the mix.


We will finally be able to use that hot tub.

Rockwall started

Finally after 1 year of planning, the rockwall is finally getting built. The rock wallers arrived some time last week to drop off all the rocks, concrete, and sand. Today they started the front. The wall is made of a mix of rocks, but I think it's mostly granite.

Some holes filled.

Well now we have a couple holes filled .... i don't know what the story is ... Tristan ... fill me in.
By the look of these pictures, it would seem that my dad hired you.
