(I know, estate and Topeka are not two words that are usually joined together). His georgian house has been moved, the horse farm sold and no one remembers whose it was in the beginning and all that remains is part of the poolside pergola. The rest is a shopping center. We fear the more we learn this relative may have been a bit of Bernie Madoff and certainly a great deal of Jay Gatsby, but did he style, big dreams and for a while deep pockets!home before darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272062955786414729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-77145841219781113202011-01-23T03:29:47.492-05:002011-01-23T03:29:47.492-05:00I want one!

But my fascination started with the pools built in the 50's, 60's in Palm Springs. Many of the famously designed homes had just that. To me, that would be the closest thing to heaven. It would be a salt water pool so no chlorine. A girl can dream can't she? That's sometimes all we've got! <br /><br />Hope you have a decent day. No crappy customers!

I want one too.. oh hang on.. i want a house first and then I want one of these.. hehe<br /><br />You know you can use a special salt formula to condition the water instead of chlorine.. and salt is cleansing both energetically and physically.. would truly be fantastic for the home!!!<br /><br />I must remember to show you my favourite 'indoor' pool one day...<br /><br />Ok...

My girlfriend ...I always dreamed of an in-out pool. My girlfriend had one in her chateau near Paris. When i would go and visit in the winter, my favorite treat was to jump in the pool. Her husband kept the pool at 80 all year around! My closest friend in Greenwich owns a house with an indoor pool but I seldom swam in it ...as he is too tight to keep the pool well heated in the winter, also the smell of chlorine is quite a deterrent. When on a ski trip I always pick a hotel with an outdoor pool. There is something just so soothing to swim after a long day of skiing, under the cool starry night or under snowfall.<br />As for my own little pool, it is salt water, which I really enjoy, but my husband is far too "Bostonian and rather tight with the purse" to keep it heated in the winter!Francine Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02042631088215474109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-7325372430430150262011-01-22T07:48:27.775-05:002011-01-22T07:48:27.775-05:00maya
