in this heat the pool is the best part of the yard.

Hey MT930 - that wouldn't happen to be South 19th area in Bozeman would it?

I envy you guys. You should have some tables and chairs under those trees, have some BBQ, and get all of us there to mess the place up for you :D

Potomac River on the right. House is on the left.

Backyards and BBQ's, that's what it's all about around my house. Horseshoe pits go in this weekend by the gazebo.....I hope!!!

I feel so suburban in this crowd...

Here's our backyard. Nothing fancy. It's about an acre of woods.

And often infested with children.

milt - what is the roof?

is it that poly stuff that is clear & has ridges on it?

6 x 10 jack rafters, 8 x 10 hip on a 30 degree angle which makes for 2 different roof pitches and different rafter spacing on opposites. If was a good exercise in carpentry.

The rafters are covered in both directions with 2 x 3 rough fir. On top of those are smoke Lexan panels. To the left of the fan and against the house wall, the whole roof articulates like a 20 foot long opening skylight to let summer heat out.

The rolled shades deploy during the summer to block out direct sunlight.

I built the room for the cat. ;)
