Do you ever like to chill by a pool?
Your cares just seem to melt away.
It’s best to be alone.
And stay to watch the setting sun.
Cheers to you from some cool pools in Lake Nicaragua & Santa Ynez California~

Wow! Stunning! A really wonderful place to relax!
Thank you! A pool with a view is very cool.
I could chill by these. All day long!!!!
You are a woman after my own <3 for that is exactly what I did!
Hello Cindy, please let me have your email or Instagram handle for a good communication. There’s something we need to discuss confidentially. Thank you!
Ahhhh … so relaxing.
We need it don’t we Frank!
Absolutely!
<3
So calming and relaxing! A beautiful place and beautiful photos. 🙂
Thank you Lynette! A pool with a view, all by yourself, is infinitely relaxing.
Wow…so lovely.
Cheers to you Gigi & thank you <3
Lovely purple dusk light!
Yes, especially reflected back, peace & beauty <3
You’ve shared some incredible photos of these tranquil places!
I am very happy you enjoyed & thank you!
Just exquisite!
Awww, so kind <3
Ohhhh! Wish I were there!
I wish I could beam you over now!
Oh to be that warm and want to get into a pool. I’d love it.
Plus the twin baby grand boys went in the pool with me for their first swim. They are little fishies <3
Nice!
Grazie.
This is a fantastic place to relax and soak in the solitude of a sunset. That’s where I would like to spend the winter months. Great photos, Cindy!
You would probably love Santa Ynez Peter. Sunny, scenic, slow paced and quiet. I love it too.
Especially now, when winter with bitterly cold temperatures is upon us here in Canada.
Stay warm & dry.
Hey Cindy,
Intimate moments soul-to-soul with inspired Nature: blissful, like a Lover’s kiss.

You have a golden way with words Dewin.
With eyes to see, with a heart that feels, your photographs capture the sweetest moments. Thank you for sharing that gift.

Orson was such a brilliant man. Thank you for sharing his prescient quote.
A pleasure Cindy….in some way I thought you’d appreciate it.

I love the infinity pool with that view. I could relax there for a long, long time. I’ve never been that close to one. Wow!
Yes, Santa Ynez is a peaceful place. Cheers to you Marlene <3
What a beautiful setting. It must have been a struggle to force yourself to be ‘cool by the pool’ with that view Cindy 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋 🦘
Laughing…..easiest thing I’ve ever done.
Reblogged this on Musings on Life & Experience and commented:
Cindy Knoke’s lovely pictures of pools in Lake Nicaragua & Santa Ynez California.
Beautiful scenes, Cindy! Esp love the blues and pinks combos; yes, very cool pools! 😊
That pink summer sunsets are pure magic. Happy you enjoyed Felipe & thank you!
❤️ 😊
Is that Volcan Concepcion in the distance?
Yes it is. You are smart John.
Google is smart.
You both are.
What a beautiful place!
Thank you. Peace + beauty are the best combination.
Yes indeed! 🙂❄

That’s absolutely gorgeous…so beautiful 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Your kindness is much appreciated and I love the roses (｡♥‿♥｡)
Beautiful photos, Cindy 😀
Merci beaucoup mon ami (｡♥‿♥｡)
A pool with a view is the best! … and what a view, wow! I could relax there for a week! 🙂
You are like me (｡♥‿♥｡)
Hello Cindy
Thank you for your Great Post with Amazing Pictures, Now i start to following you.
https://www.acevisionnepal.com
Lovely to meet you and I look forward to exploring your blog.
Hello Candy
thank you for your Kind words.
♡´･ᴗ･`♡
Water is soooooo relaxing
Yes, it is for me too.
I have an unexplainable and irrational fear of infinity pools. Love to swim and love the water…just not those. 🙂
I admire you for being upfront and open about it. This helps take power away from fear. No need for the pool to be an infinity anyway. They are many other beautiful pools that would work just fine for you. Be well Felicia <3
Thanks, Cindy – you too! 🙂 <3
♡´･ᴗ･`♡
Beautiful place to relax 😍
Thank you. We all need beautiful places to relax. <3
True 😊
♡´･ᴗ･`♡
super schön, liebe Cindy, hab eine gute Woche mit vielen schönen Momenten, Klaus von der Müritz
Danke, dass du so ein wunderbarer Freund bist und es dir gut geht! <3
das ist nett, vielen dank
♥♥
I’m not usually a sit by the pool kind of person….but THIS pool calls me.
It has to be a magical pool…… <3
Like this 🙂
♡´･ᴗ･`♡
So relaxing. Great looking pools. Love the soft colors in your photos Cindy.
Thank you Gary & hope all is well with you!
Oh, that sunset!!
It was pretty special <3
Klasse Fotos. Freundliche Grüsse,Wolfgang
Danke schoen mein lieber Freund Wolfgang <3
Very creative concept and blog post, Cindy. Wonderful photography.
Much appreciated Frank. Thank you very much.
Beautiful
Thank you & cheers!
I’ve never been a pool person, Cindy, but your fantastic and enticing pictures could convince me otherwise.
If you want, try it sometime by yourself, with a view, and watch the sunset. Some people like it floating in the pool. I actually saw a woman do this in Antarctica in a small thermal pool. She looked in complete bliss.
A relaxing place to be!
We all need to visit relaxing places.
Heavenly! Wish I was there. My house is currently being jet-washed by a Welsh winter squall. I’m chilling, but not in the relaxing sense of the word.
Oh, dear. I hope you have a warm fire, a good book, and some nice hot tea. Stay warm <3
Thank you! I have excellent central heating, a good supply of coffee and – I hope – I’m writing a good book! 🙂
Perfect.
What a beautiful setting for an outdoor pool. I remember years ago sitting in an outdoor pool with no one else there soaking up the tranquility and night sky. Thanks for sharing this slice of heaven on earth Cindy!
It is magic isn’t it, and you have to be alone to appreciate it fully.
Yes.
The view from the pools is amazing Cindy.
Leslie xoxo
A quiet pool, a lovely view, pure peacefulness. I can easily stay all day.
me too!
<3
It’s as if I’m there.
Thank you!!
Beautiful landscape.
Happy you enjoyed Roraliene & thank you!
Lovely photos! And I’m with you: there is nothing quite so relaxing as spending time in, or by, a beautiful pool!
Especially alone and with a soothing view.
I’m not much of a pool person, Cindy. That is, I don’t particularly like being wet, but I love the idea of relaxing poolside — especially when the view is that amazing!
Just sitting by a pool by yourself with a view can be deeply relaxing.
Once in awhile, a blue pool moon phases in, and Ichill!
Great Shots!
I chill too, with sunsets and the moon.
Ahh, the moon… we get to see it on occasion. Stars… gotta drive out of the city.
We had an amazing sunset about 3 months ago. Brilliant red… some sort of unusual atmospheric condition for Toronto.
Sounds like a strong motivating factor to drive out of the city! But you have the aurora don’t you? I have never seen it. I just always am sleeping!
We need to be out of the city to see the aurora, too. You should have stayed awake in Churchill!!
You get some fabulous light shows all over the prairies, even southern prairies.
I know. I should have definitely stayed awake in Churchill.
Gotta love California skies, lovely!
Happy you enjoyed. Thank you!
Love tagging along on your travels, Cindy!
(｡♥‿♥｡)
These images are relaxing when just viewing them so must have been great to be there
Indeed. Relaxing imagery is good for our hearts and souls.
Gorgeous pools…fabulous vistas…stay cool.
U R Cool Sheila (｡♥‿♥｡)
Oh yes I do love to chill at a pool and can’t to do so soon. So inviting! <3
We are in complete accord ♡´･ᴗ･`♡
<3
These photos are breathtaking. I can only wish
So kind Gottfried. Thank you & cheers!
This is beautiful! 🙂
Thank you very much!
Gorgeous sunset. 🙂
Thank you David.
Yes, indeed I do. Lovely.
♡´･ᴗ･`♡
The colours of the sky are really lovely in paradise! The purples and blues looks magical and so nicely reflected in the pool 🙂
Wish I could beam you over for a visit Halim ♡´･ᴗ･`♡
Cindy, thank you for more beautiful photos!
You are a good friend Charles ♡´･ᴗ･`♡
So beautiful. I love it!
Happy you do & thank you Dani <3
beautiful, Cindy.
Grazie mille Pam <3
Heavenly…
Also love the colorful sky, beautiful!!
Thank you Amy. A compliment from a talented photographer like you means a lot to me.
Ain’t nothin’ like chillin’ in the evening ‘n’ watchin’ there sunset over the water 🎶💙🎶
We think a lot because we are cousins ♡´･ᴗ･`♡
lass es dir auch heute gut gehen, Klaus
Peaceful place, pictures and thoughts! It is nice state to be alone and feel comfortable. I like it because I can be myself and enjoy. The other time is all about duties and responsibilities. The best way to escape all that stuff is to leave the home for some time. 🙂
I agree wholeheartedly with each point you make. Be well my friend.
Thank you, I will. Enjoy your staying in such a lovely place.
So calm and inviting! Thanks for sharing these beautiful scenes, Cindy. Hugs on the wing!
Hugs back to you talented lady ♡´･ᴗ･`♡
Great pictures 🌸
erhole dich, damit du die kommende Woche gut meistern kannst, Klaus
Vielen Dank, Klaus, und eine wundervolle Woche, mein Freund.
Ahhh! Just looking at these pools is relaxing. The photos themselves feel therapeutic.
Ahhh, I am glad. I want them to feel this way <3
I needed to see these this wintry day!
Yes, I feel just the same!
My goodness! This is gorgeous. Thank you for these photos, Cindy.
Which we could beam over to one for a chat and a snooze!
Phenomenal shots. The serenity of the colours is blissful.
Awwww, happy you enjoyed Sande and thank you my friend.
So, so beautiful…. wow, what an enchanting experience! Such beautiful photography and many, many thanks for sharing!
Awww, your thoughtfulness is very much appreciated. Cheers to you!
Love it!
Glad you do & thank you! (♡´❍`♡)
Wonderful photography for a great place to cool off. Thank you for the pictures.
Thank you much more for your kind appreciation დ
