One of the latest trends in backyard design is the hot tub
gazebo. These designs have become all
the rage in backyards worldwide. I
recently had a discussion with a friend regarding these backyard delights, and
we came to the realization that the design is absolutely brilliant!
Frankly, we were surprised that it had not been thought of
sooner. People have been including hot
tubs and Jacuzzi’s into their home designs for quite some time. Back in the 1970’s, hot tub parties seemed to
be everywhere. In the 1990’s, everyone
seemed quite keen on having traditional garden parties. The hot tub gazebo was a natural development.
I was watching the television just the other evening, and
HGTV had a segment on building your own hot tub gazebo. I spent the next few days daydreaming about
having one of my own. I have a hot tub
in my master bathroom, and I have always fancied the idea of moving it outdoors. I would love to spend cool summer nights
under the stars soaking in my wonderful warm tub. Wouldn’t you?
A few days later, I decided to make it so. I consulted a couple of friends that are
handy with power tools, and set to work on my drawings. In the eyes of my handy-friends they were
sketches, but I like to consider them drawings.
I had one dilemma to confront. Do
I remove the tub from my master bathroom, or do I purchase a new one?
I decided to purchase a brand new one. The prospect of building a gazebo was one
thing. It was quite another to have to
renovate my bathroom to accommodate it.
Anyway the more the merrier, they say!
I went down to the local hot tub dealer, and got an excellent deal on
last year’s model. I purchased one of
the largest ones I could find, as I expect to be having some awesome
parties!
We set to work building the gazebo a few weeks later. It seemed like it was together in no time at
all, and by the end of the weekend we were all soaking in my new hot tub having
a few martinis. This is the life, my
friends! Later in the evening it began
to rain, but that was no concern of ours.
The gazebo kept the rain water out of our drinks, and we partied into
the wee hours! Hey, did anyone see where
my bathing suit went?

favorite hot tub. When she is not
telling her friends about the last hot tub party, she is threatening to sue
them if the pictures end up on the internet.
