Appointment Three - Diablo Disney

April 18, 2007

So at this point we are still pretty high on Premier, low on Aqua and waiting on our other various appointments. We know it is going to be expensive, but we are not sure how expensive.

now the pool is the primary part of the project, but the project is so much more.

for one we also want a spa

and the auto cover

and some waterfalls

we need cement on both sides of the house - right now both sides are just dirt and it is an awful mess in the winter and basically unusable. Our garage is overflowing with all of the kids bikes and the 4 garbage cans. So the project also involves both sides having broom finish concrete and paths to the sidewalk. The east narrow side is going to be for the garbage cans and the west wide side is going to be where all the bikes, scooters, sports equipment, not to mention all the pool equipment.

we also need to rebuild the fence gates, rip out and replace the poorly done backyard patio, add in a patio cover a lot of landscaping and trees and Karen's new addition - the sitting wall.

It is a big project - basically a complete and total remodel of the back and side yards.

So, our third appointment is with Jeremy from Diablo Disney - now the name of his company is Diablo Oasis - but there company letterhead is all in the Disney font - it looks like the Disneyland Pool Building company.

Back to our blink test - Jeremy is doing very well. He is extremely down to earth, funny, salt of the earth kind of guy. We head outside - he makes some good suggestions, we have a nice conversation and when he leaves we are impressed. at this point it could be either Premier or Diablo Disney - it all depends upon the bids.
