By the pool

Happy Thursday morning everyone !

My mind is racing with the possibilities this summer -
( and I can't wait to go on sabbatical with indoor renovations to be honest with you )

Here's what we'll be starting with - and the goal would be to make it look like a lush resort type of setting - where we can escape these miserable indoor reno's every day for a little bit ..............
I can see there's perennials along the borders ( I haven't seen any of this yet since we moved in the last week of November ) it'll be exciting to see them pop up - but I know from this photo that I'm going to need some height as well - potted trees perhaps?


Ok - lets move on - this post is not about the pool - per se - rather it's about something I'd LOVE to have to accompany it - a pool house !

The perfect place to have a nap?

At this stage of the game I'd like my HOUSE to look as nice as these LOL

Have a great day everyone !

I WANNA live there Wednesday # 76 - YORKSHIRE, ENGLAND

WELCOME TO I WANNA LIVE THERE WEDNESDAY -
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A SERIES ON REAL ESTATE FOR SALE - MOSTLY IN MY HOME TOWN OF MONTREAL - WITH LOTS OF VISITS HERE AND THERE TO SEE WHAT ELSE IS OUT THERE - SOMETIMES IN N.Y. OR NEW ORLEANS - OR PARIS - OR............ANYWHERE ACTUALLY!
I CONCENTRATE ( FOR THE MOST PART ) ON HERITAGE HOMES - HISTORICAL BUILDINGS WITH DETAILED ARCHITECTURE.
SINCE THIS IS A SERIES ON THE HOUSE ITSELF - AND NOT THE WAY PEOPLE FURNISH THEM - KINDLY KEEP THAT IN MIND WHEN LEAVING COMMENTS -I WOULD NOT WANT A HOME OWNER TO COME ACROSS THEIR HOME ON MY BLOG AND READ UNKIND THINGS ABOUT IT ( I WAS ONCE CONTACTED WITH THANKS FOR SHOWCASING SOMEONE'S HOME - SO IT'S POSSIBLE )  IF YOU'RE INTO HOMES WITH A HISTORY THIS IS A SERIES YOU JUST MAY ENJOY - THANKS SO MUCH FOR VISITING THEM WITH ME
