Guest Bird #7 - Sylvia
If you're not familiar with Palm Springs weather, check out last month's warm temperatures!
Water has always been an important theme in the Palm Springs area, for the beauty as well as the cooling effect. At last count, there were said to be over 30,000 swimming pools in the Coachella Valley. I have chosen the most interesting residential pools to share with you...
Bob Hope's pool and 17,531 sq. ft. house! (1)
Elrod House pool (2)
Sylvia grew up in central California, spent 20+ years working in Manhattan, and is currently trying to sell her New York house--located in Hamptons. You can connect with Sylvia, a Diva at Networking, via http://twitter.com/SylviaEnder and http://www.linkedin.com/in/SylviaEnder.
This is Sylvia's third For the Birds Landing. You can find her previous posts here.

Nice job!
Nice. And selection of pools is excellent!
Gorgeous !!!! I would love to float in any one of these pools as I reflect and gaze at the serene and beautiful sky that is unique to Palm Springs.
WOW - Sylvia, nice job!! All the pools are inviting - let's go swimming! ;-)
