How was your hoilday weekend? I'm back from my family's trip to Edgefield. We had such a wonderful time. I have to admit, it was a bit strange not celebrating Christmas at my parent's house, which I've done every single year of my life. But it was fun to shake things up a bit.
The highlight for me was the outdoor soaking pools (man-made hot springs). One night, Hal and I decided to take a dip during a rain storm. We threw on our suits, robes, and flippy floppies. Ran outside in the freezing cold. Got lost. Cursed and giggled hysterically at our stupidity. And finally found the heavenly pools. We immersed ourselves into hot steamy bliss, and for awhile, we were the only ones there. It felt so amazing to have icy droplets pound down on our heads while being toasty warm under the surface.
Have you ever experienced a soaking pool... in the rain?
P.S. I didn't have my camera with me, so this image is of a hot springs in Iceland. Close enough! ;)
