Take A Dip

This weekend the fiance and I are having some guests in from Florida, usually people seek northern states for cooler weather, unfortunately, that is not the case this weekend here in Chicago. This heat wave is taking it's toll on many people, but we won't let it get the best of us! As we are walking around the city with our guests, maybe we should just have visions of these stunning pools, if I can't find a pool I might just take a dip into Lake Michigan...

I am usually not a fan of black bottom pools, they just don't seem as refreshing as others to me, but I do love this one and and the contrast it creates with the beautiful white house:

This seems like a hidden oasis...

I love this inviting and casual pool house...
