Our backyard is almost done

The project had been going on for more than two months now: new stones around the pool, travertine tiles throughout most of the yard, outdoor kitchen, no more old deck floor but an open space, tree trimming (we were a bit upset with our contractor as he cut off the tops of our two young maple trees without our permission), new deck roof, new beam (the old one had termites), window leak fixed, new lawn, irrigation, new planting around the pool, lighting...a long list. It looks nice, and we have had Holly/James over for dinner two weeks ago.
