How to build a pool Las Vegas Style







1. Move to Las Vegas in the dead of the summer and come to the conclusion that they weren't kidding when they said it gets hot here
2. Talk to some friends who have pools and find out some reputable companies
3. Get some bids from those companies
4. Recover from passing out from the 'great deal' they have to offer you
5. Watch them dig a big hole and start swearing when they hit "caliche" (hard substance found in the dirt that you pay extra for to have excavated)
6. Put in lots of plumbing, and rebar, watch your yard go to a all new level of a mess
7. Watch them construct the waterfall rocks and spa flagstone rocks
8. Enjoy more Mexican music

more to come....that's as far as we've gotten so far!

I'm so happy to see some pictures! I'm jealous Chris got to see it in person. Thanks for taking care of him yesterday. I can't wait to see the updated pool pictures.
