Pool Build So. Illinois

I've been lurking on this site for quite some time, first when building our house, and then now when building our pool. We have gained such valuable information. Thought I would share our pool build.
Work got started in November, got everything poured and then had a few months off dealing with this winter. They are back at it now, starting to install the equipment.
I don't have all my exact details on me now, but roughly the pool is:
free form lagoon
all gunite
rock cave/grotto with waterfall
slide
travertine coping and decking
hot tub bunker, with drop in buy out tub
Pentair lighting
heat-pump heater
Pavilion structure w/outdoor kitchen
here are a bunch of pictures:
