Pool progress

We've certainly been enjoying the house and land.... but what we're REALLY waiting for eagerly is the pool. It's looking really awesome!

We put city boy to work!

My dear brother Mike was visiting for a couple of days. He's a city boy at heart, but was really helpful and dealt well with the chaos that is our house right now. Here's Luka walking up the "driveway". I tell you.... gravel is nice, but walking up this every time we leave the house? Getting old!
Here's Mike on the way up. Despite the heat we put him in pants because of the mosquitos. They love him.
We needed to put the auger on the tractor so we could dig a hole for the telephone pole. Yup.... telephone saga not over yet.
It's not hard work, but dirty and requires a couple of people. I was happy not to be one of those!

Done!

progress

Just because we moved in doesn't mean everything is done!
We had wanted to wait until it was ALL done. But the house was complete.... and the thought of it sitting there, empty was just TOO much!
Plus.... school would start soon (in the beginning of Aug) and mainland visitors were coming. SO we moved and have been living with construction around us.

Here's the fish tank getting filled up (with Luka in the background)

And pool tile!
