Saturday at the Sybaris

This is MY pool, i say mine because I think they built it just for me. Its the right depth, the right length, and the perfect temperature. This room was about 90 degrees. Its attached to your bedroom. It has a waterfall over the pool, a hot tub to the left which I think you can see, and a steamroom to the right of the pool. There is a stereo system that plays thruout the room and pool area, they have it set to Jazz which is perfect for us. I cannot tell you how MUCH I love this pool. I hope they know its mine and that I will be back!
Its funny this picture of Baldyman, when we went last year, I took a picture of him and it was exactly like this--in the massage chair. He thinks this is his..kinda like i do about the pool. This man sat in this chair so long--he literally had teeny teeny sores on his back that ended up bleeding..I kid you not! Of course he wasnt wearing his coat when he sat in it for 25 hours, he was only wearing a towel.
And this is MOI holding the roses that came with the room. My son bought this for a Christmas gift for me and Baldyman, we have 2 nights coming to us...one more left. It also included robes, slippers, and these gorgeous roses. They are now sitting on my dresser and they have opened up to a beautiful blooming very fragrant Rose.

We had a great time at the Sybaris. I came home so relaxed and so did Baldyman, this place literally forces you to slow down. We just went from the pool to the hot tub,to the steam room., etc. We plan on using our last nights stay in the Fall. I hope everyone else had a great weekend,,we finally got Spring in Wisconsin. I started putting out my yard decorations and even some of the lawn furniture. I also saw my first Robin today in our yard. Its a very exciting time for us, who will still have snow!

Hi Dawnie, I found a great deal on the sheets on Ebay. They were 38.00 instead of 59.99 at Target. It was about 10.00 for the shipping, so I still saved alittle. They were brand new and still in the package. There is always several on there, but hardly ever the queen size which is always hard to find at Target also. I put them on last night and oh my, I love how they feel. So old fashioned and cool and crisp. I am loving them.
Your room there looks fabulous, lucky your, what a nice way to unwind.

What a wonderful get away! I couldn't find the spot that said freebies to click on. That looks very interesting.
