  1. If you have a Tri-Supply nearby go check with them. Look into a fiberglass door and you can use gel stain. Also would recommend looking into Endura frame savers.

    Had a few friends in town from across the pond. Opened a few bottles from Oregon on a Thursday evening. This weekend is going to be epic.....Leroy tasting on Saturday night!
  3. I'm still trying to figure out how to take care of my pool...my pool company has been less than helpful! Need to figure out how my chiller works as my pool is 91 degrees! A pool beer solves all the problems!
  4. They poured the decking without the collar in place.
  5. So my pool builder is coming for pool school in a few days. It has taken them three weeks! I have some finish concerns mainly related to plaster overspray on the glass tile. Is this to be expected or should I have them scrub it clean? They also conveniently forgot to install the lid for the auto fill when they poured the pool deck. Do they make a lid that will retrofit into concrete?

    Solid lineup! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. We built the house to entertain. So far it has far exceeded our expectations! It feels like you are at a high end resort and never have to leave!
  8. I was just talking about this the other day. We moved in three weeks ago and have only gone out to dinner once. Backyard and pool get the evening shade. After work we tend to have a drink or three in the pool and basically eat leftovers from the weekend!
  9. I'm in Central Texas. The kitchen is all stone. There is no wood framing.
  10. I ended up going with a Blaze grill from BBQguys. Bought all of the door/drawer accessories from them as well. So far so good as we just moved in two weeks ago. They were helpful in laying out a design for the outdoor kitchen. I highly recommend.

    Rose all weekend long!
  12. Only been in the house for a few days and it's the first thing I notice when I walk outside. Hopefully my OCD will settle down on of these days.
  13. The day has finally come to shoot plaster!

    First night on the island....
  16. Both the fence and exterior door alarms are complete.
  17. Forgot to mention the fence has been installed.
  18. Have a quick question....we are building a new house and will be finished in the next 3 weeks. We just have the plaster and startup left on the pool. The pool builder is saying we need our certificate of occupancy before they will schedule plaster. I cannot find anything anywhere that says you need to have the certificate of occupancy to plaster and fill a pool. Has anyone had experience with a new construction home and pool being built at the same time?
  19. I'm in Centex and the market has cooled off a little. We listed the house pretty high for the neighborhood but thought that it was a reasonable asking price. Put my house on the market on a Friday and had 5 showings over the weekend. We called for offers on Monday by 5pm and received two offers, both cash. I thought we would have had twice the showings and offers but I think interest rates have people looking in lesser expensive homes at this point.

    Both of these bottles have been resting in friends cellars for years! Current market prices have me thinking about selling my collection. I'm perfectly content drinking QPR wines everyday! The Leroy was mind boggling. Best wine of the year so far. And Roulot holds a special place in my heart! White burg is so darn good but the cost has gotten insane!
