Who can say that Darrell does not have a sense of humor after looking at these pictures? The water really does come out of the ground at 143 degrees. See photos! Over the years there have been several health spas here touting the medicinal qualities of the water. One closed spa is now a US National Park site. One is still open to the public, so we each treated ourselves to "taking the baths". Very relaxing, taking about an hour. A hot bath with whirlpool, Sitz bath, and hot box for cleaning every pore. By the way, it was 99 degrees outdoors here, so why not get even hotter in the bath?! Doesn't make much sense, but we did what so many others have done before us, even Al Capone. We have enjoyed the motel pool immensely. Lake Hamilton, just south of here, is gorgeous, with many water craft and homes to match.
what the heck is dad doing in those pictures?? haha! sounds like you guys are having a great time :)
ReplyDeleteHey guys. I love the blog. I am really impressed. Nancy I knew you liked spa's but wow that is sure a hot bath. I can't wait to read more tomorrow. Have a great time and I'll see you when you return. Melanie
ReplyDeleteJulie, the first pic shows Dad in the contraption you stand in to cool down with tepid water after many minutes in and out of very hot water. But at one time there was some electrical device connected. Needless to say, that was not used after a "short" time.
ReplyDeleteHey, Mel! Glad you're checking in with us. I'm proud of Darrell: he's only talked to the office once!
