Look what my Cousin Mike did for me....
« on: August 09, 2007, 01:26:51 PM »
He & his lovely wife ( Joyce ) found this rock alongside the road for me. They brought it over to my house & Mike drilled a hole in it to make a nice "spitter" for me......I saw one at Bonnie's ( in IN ) & fell in love with it . He hooked it & this tub too to my pump . 3500 gallon per hour Cal pump .
I'm going to build a 3 sided box from landscapeing timber's to go around the tub .
He is a Great Guy to do this for me !

Some people were just born into great families!

Lilies are looking good!

Nice work!  I tried to drill a hole in my huge fibergass rock, no luck at all. Very hard stuff.  Mike must have been well tooled to achieve that stuff!

Very nice spitter. I have one too that my husband drilled in a piece of granite. I love it.
