Chas, let's see some pics of the new tub

OK, it's not brand new but it's new to you. Let's see what a professional install looks like.  :)

So which do you want to see - my spa or a professional install?

Actually my backyard is very plain. The spa just sits there on a flat slab next to my patio. I'll upload some shots - have to do it from home though.

So, the boss might catch you uploading at work?   ;D
Heck, I thought she only caught you at home.... ::)

LOL - actually that's where the spa is...

;)

OK - Remember it's not fancy.

I uploaded a large pic. It's not the exact spa I have right now, but it's almost exact. It's all the same colors and siding etc. The thing in the foreground is an outdoor pool table - I had a cover made for it so it looks like another spa sitting there.

This was shot as we filled it up.

Very nice Chas. I knew everyone living in Ventura was rich. ;D

What's the median house price in Ventura nowadays?

$650,000. More if it has running water.

Hey Chas! - question from your pic - do you ever use those tiki torches next to your tub? I was thinking of different lighting options for around our tub and wondered if anyone had used them (tikis) before.

Thanks!

I've got 2  copper tiki's. I really like them.    The only issue is they can be dangerous if knocked over, or if  say, someone, had maybe a couple of beers and leaned into one to light a cigar.with em.   ::) .     Common sense is very important.  

This place on the net has some nice copper ones

Yes, we do use them. We used to buy the bamboo type, but they were only goot for one year if we left them out all the time, which we do.

My nephew got us these as a present several years ago, and they keep on working just fine. They have long prongs on the bottom (three) which keep them from toppling over, and there is a hidden bonus: the gardener has to move them everytime he comes to mow, so very slowly we are getting our lawn aerated.
