Living the life Mon!
Don't think I'd ever want my own pool, not much of a swimmer myself.

In all seriousness a very nice pool. Do you miss the warm weather or nah? When I was growing up we had a nice three tier stone waterfall in our pool. My mom couldn’t help herself

Mind you this wasn’t some elaborate mansion so the waterfall was a bit over the top. Wish I had a picture handy.
