Fun in the Sun at the Hotsprings

Daniel — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 05:16:38 +0000

We just got back from the Wilbur hot springs last week near Davis. The springs were only an hour and a half drive away from home and a great day trip. There were three flumes, with hot spring water flowing continuously through and out to the drying stream. In the spring time, the stream flows well. The concentrated smell of sulfur reminded me of Yellowstone. The three flumes varied in temperature at 100, 105, and 109. There was also a sauna, with a pull down cold shower, and a swimming pool at a brisk 80 degrees.

The facility itself is situated among 1800 acres private reserve. We took a long dirt road into the property, out of cell phone range. It was very peaceful to be away from the world and to take a day off to enjoy the springs, hot sun, and quietness.

We expected the “clothing optional” retreat to be mostly old people like you see in the gyms. However, we were very suprised of the wide range of people that were there, albeit, mostly hippies. I look forward to coming again soon.

Apartment Living

We’re finally settled in our apartment now, almost reaching the one year mark in September. Since then, we’ve spent a lot of time in the balcony and growing our potted garden. Also, most recently, we purchased a mini grill for two:

Most of the comments we’ve received have been revolved around the fact that the BBQ is a pig and we’re grilling pork.

Tukie is getting excited to eat her grilled pork, although Daniel did put too much salt into it and it tastes like bacon.

Finally, here’s a picture of our garden. We also have tomatoes growing in the other balcony.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. We’re ghetto this year and have sent out any cards or bought very many presents. However, we enjoyed spending time with our friends and family in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest. To all our friends and family from the far corners of the world, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
