    Hey John, I moved to Vegas last May.

    That's from Architectural Digest - you'll have to search their site but it is in NorCal. Here are the other pics; I think it's beautiful and love the concept, but I don't think the photos show 1) pond bugs (can you imagine the mosquitos?) and 2) Pond smell (muck). It would be more appealing next to a stream running over rocks.

    Not sure why anyone would tell you it couldn't be done. Simple cantilever. Looks good.

    Not to mention mowing your roof! ;)

    More like this one? It doesn't blend quite as well with the landscape though.....
