I would like to start a little running account of the progress on my lanai conversion.

This is a picture of the east side. I have already ripped out the plants in this area as the new lanai will be expanded out to the edge of the house. The pool pump and filters are being moved around the corner of the house and the pool heater (big box to the left of the pump) will be disconnected and trashed. They will pour a concrete slab here and cover it with the same brick pavers as the rest of the new lanai.

This is a straight on view from the back showing the star jasmine hedge that I will have to trim back from the screen to give them room to work.

And this is the west side. Note the big pony-tail palm. There will be a 24 inch gable exhaust fan mounted near the top of this wall to cool things off in the summer.
