Looks like the same crane that delivered my spa.  Its impressive watching your spa being lifted over your house.  When are you starting her up?

The electrician said that he would do the work at the beginning of next week. I can't wait to get it going. I opted for the crane ($250 extra) rather than having to buy loam to patch up my lawn for the regular delivery. It was pretty cool having it lifted over the house and gently touching down on the concrete.

Awesome set-up. 8-)
I like how you painted the door red, it's a nice contrast. With the size of that patio you could also have a roller hockey rink. :o

How long did it take to stack all those rocks?

Thanks for sharing

I just got a call from the electrician who said he will be here this Tuesday. He is the recommended electrician at NE spas and he also fills the tub and does the initial chemical treatment. He said that we could use it Wednesday or possibly even at around 10:00 or 11:00 PM Tuesday night.

I want to thank everyone for the knowledge I've gained through this forum.

Why Not:
Years ago there was a farm next to where my house is now. When they cleared all the rocks from the farm they deposited most of them on my land (they buried most of them). As a result I have all the rocks I need and I have built low walls all over my property. I find it very relaxing. It probably took me a couple days to build the wall in back of the hot tub. There is actually a planting garden enclosed within the wall and I am trying to decide what to plant there, maybe 3 or 4 dwarf blue spruce with annual flowers in between.

Sweet delivery and great backyard.

I know the folks at NE Spas.  Good people; care about their customers.

Which store did you buy from?  Where do you live?  My aunt and uncle live in Weston...unless it is Wellsley.

Hope it stops raining by then ;).  Congratulations!
