I will NOT let my wife see that :).

She has plans for a ~$50K kitchen renovation...not sure what good a nice kitchen is if we can't afford to buy food :(.

How much did it cost you? I think it's awesome but I couldn't do it in my back yard.

If I remember correctly:

Grill, sideburner; cabinets, 2nd cabinet doors: $1700
Refrigerator: $300
Sink and hot water heater: $250
Transformer and lights: $100
Brick and mortar: $600
Tile (most not shown in pics): $500
4" cement pad (roughly 3 Cubic yards): $150 delivered and poured
Copper, PVC and Steel pipes, Electrical wires and boxes, fireboard, Misc: $250

About $4000 total.

My wife and I will be putting in a new patio next fall and are considering doing something along these lines.

Right now Sams Club has a really nice grilling "station" for around $500-$600. My Dad is a mason by trade and will help with all of the stone setting and brickwork.

Ideally ours will be some combination of 1st & 2nd slides.

Leave it to a CPA to remember line items and costs :). Nice work on the project.

What happens over night when moisture settles and everything is dirty in the morning? And when it rains? Also do your neighbors really want to listen to the movie your watching? The theater one would probably be much better for an acreage I guess.
