That either led me down the path of saunas that could double as a change room in the summer, but that made no sense because what would I need a change room in my back yard for. Or crazy expensive Hele brand one way mirror glass saunas, which again, no idea how often I'd use it. I did basically land on the idea I'd love a place to lounge and have big open glass to just look out at the night sky and whatnot, like maybe a campfire replacement, but much warmer and less bugs.

That sorta ended up sending me down the path towards a Geodesic dome which I wondered if it might be possible to convert to a glamping dome in the summer, then convert back to sauna for the winter... but holy crap those prices! I'm better off going to the Nordic spa for the next decade!

Haha, my backyard is way too basic bitch for that. I don't have good views and some of my neighbours' houses look down somewhat into my yard.

I actually like the idea better of a cozy and dark little cave for this.

Those domes look totally awesome, but just not quite my style. I'll come use yours if you get one!
