How do you get a giant hot tub off your deck?

With a giant crane of course. 

I think we removed the world's largest hot tub today…and had an equally large crane here to do the job.  The tub was here when we moved in and built into the deck much the same way a bank vault is built into a bank building – first and with no intention of ever being moved again.  We used it a handful of times but not enough to keep.

Thanks to some skillful work by Brian and Chris leveraging the best of Egyptian pyramid engineering, they got it lifted up and moved over so Al from Image Crane here in Kirkland could get to it.  Then, just like that, it was gone!

We are looking forward to the huge amount of new space on the deck.  Here's a few pics of the action:
