Another Money/Space Question

Marp — Mon, 16 Nov 2020 20:10:45 GMT

If money and space (room) were no object what indulgent item would you purchase?

I'd love to be able to afford, and have the room for, a circa 1940s/1950s wooden carousel horse and a circa 1950s/1960s full size pinball machine.

Alas, both items will remain in my dreams.

I'd like to have a work out room, and central air for the entire house.

Oh, hands down, it would be this for the bathroom.

Just look at all of the features that it has.

You would never get me out of the bathroom!😄

A putting green for my backyard. I never even golfed very well, but still.

Years ago back in the 70s when I was living in SF - the playland out at the beach closed and they sold the carousel horses. I co-worker bought one.

At the time, she was living in a Victorian - and had a big window in front - that's where she put the "horse." Just fab!

I would love an infrared sauna.

An ancient archeological site. It would be so fun to wander over there every day and see what the experts had discovered. I could help out digging and sifting sometimes, and bake brownies and cookies for them. It would be wonderful.

A big big farm where I could live with all the animals I find side of the road & I could ride them around in that fancy car too.

Near the ocean too.

A huge indoor, in ground swimming pool, heated and enclosed in glass that would be retractable in the summer.

I'd love to swim during a snow storm, warm in the pool, surrounded by snow outside

@Mominohio

Just had to mention to you that I had that very experience years ago, and it was in Ohio! DH was a graduate student at OSU, and we lived in an apartment on the west side of town - Lincoln Park West. This was the mid 70s, so for all I know it could be a slum now, but back then there was a big clubhouse with an indoor pool in the middle. There were glass windows all around, and a big fireplace in a corner. So we were able to swim in warm water while looking out at the snow, just as you mentioned. Surprisingly, rents were very reasonable, probably because we were out on the edge of town.

I second the big big farm. I would like to save all the dogs, cats, horses, and any animal that needs a home. That would probably take up most of a state like Montana. I just feel so bad for abused and homeless animals.

@Mom2Dogs

Come on over we have central ac in the whole house.

That was a must when we bought a house after living in rental with window units.

We use one of the spare bedrooms for an exercise room. We have a treadmill, bowflex & Hybrid Elliptical/Rider plus Teeter HangUps.

I want a new kitchen. Waiting on Covid. LOL!!!

A four-season back porch big enough for textile arts equipment.

I'd love a little barn for a little pony, too, but that's pushing it.
