Got all the pumps and filters working. Getting the waterfalls and slide programmed tomorrow. Its a Hayward system that for some reason is needlessly over-complicated.
Then i'm going to get back to the landscaping and other projects.

If you invite O-din over, make sure he signs the waiver.
Don’t forget to have your neighbors over with their water hose as a good gesture
75,000 gallons, but then again I’m a bad judge of volume like this without being there
How deep is the deep end? Can you jump from the bridge without breaking something? Either way your pool looks fantastic!
Beautiful! Just had a pool done. Not quite as cool as yours but it is quite a large and disruptive process. Good luck!
My house had a large ugly above ground pool when I bought it. I had it removed by the seller that left me with a hole and potential for something new. 55934_3678717647116_425463905_o (resized).jpg
The yard was mostly dirt, dandelions and weeds.
A late fall morning the time had come to finally fill the hole.

Once filled, the initial pin locations were placed to give some perspective.

It is now my golf course. Welcome to Everest Corner.

Your welcome, and Thanks!

It most certainly is a large and disruptive process. About 10 months so far for me.
Quoted from jamieflowers:How deep is the deep end? Can you jump from the bridge without breaking something? Either way your pool looks fantastic!
Its about 9 feet deep. So plenty deep enough. Thanks!
Quoted from Pinless:80,000 gallons? That’s a lot of water to have delivered $$
Wrong again
Looks really nice.

Holy moly! Nope not that much.
It will have an auto fill installed.
Me too. Should have light automation sorted out in a day or two.
Quoted from MustangPaul:I'd say 95,000 gallons. How do you plan for evaporation? Can't wait to see this lit up at night.
We just finished our pool. Pirate ship and all! 30k gallons. Plus we added a custom fogger system around the pool/patio!

Wow. Mine was 8 months and glad it is over, good luck!
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Ghetto style. About 200 gallons? [quoted image]
It's 32° here today. Just turned the hose on, put a few beers in the freezer and in a half hr I've got a pool and cold beers
You have very nice grass.
So what's the cost to fill this up? I'm in portland Oregon area and we almost bought a house with pool that wasn'ttoo big and it was something like 1000 to fill it up I think realtor estimated but idk exacts
About $1800.
Which is a bargain compared to buying gallon jugs at Walmart for $1 each.

Quoted from LTG:Amazing. I could sit and watch that all day.

You seriously need to add a POTC to your current line up.
Hahaha Great idea!
Quoted from Coindork:You should occasionally reenact the bridge scene from Temple Of Doom at parties.
