We went out, seeking Springs...


These are not fountains. They are naturally flowing springs, which flow 24/7. And have done so, for ages. There are many, many, many of them, in our area. The Native American Indians prized them, for healing properties. As did the White man who came along...

Lots of minerals in these waters. Which you can see, from the deposits of colorful minerals, on the sites, which have been built around them. When warm weather comes, I'll show you the Geyser, in its natural state, in the park.


I'll show you those stairs in background too, when Summer comes...

What a beautiful gazebo for the spring / fountain! I look forward to seeing more pictures when greenery returns!

It's beautiful. I have always wanted to go to a natural spring with healing properties. I love hearing stories about them.

Just discovered this other blog of yours; just beautiful. I am going through a self doubting time; I started blogging in August and really enjoy it, but I wonder if I'm too old. Happy to have found you!
