A Bonus- "Our" Own Soaking Pool- August 21, 2007

People who know Susan know she loved her nightly jacuzzi bath in our Colchester home...so a hottub was on our list of desired features when we looked at homes in Portland. Unfortunately, we did not get one with our new home... or so we thought. Take a look at our new soaking pool...

Just three blocks from our home, this private bath is available for FREE to all residents of our neighborhood. It is part of McMenamin's Kennedy School, a combination restaurant/ hotel/ bar/ movie theatre and yes...soaking pool that is a pretty remarkable place. McMenamins has a chain of similar venues throughout the Portland area where they have renovated old buildings- schools, chapels, nursing homes- and converted them into hotels et al.

We are now regular "soakers" in our new pool! Another reason to visit!!!
