We took our youngest son and children to the springs at Welaka--what a treasure that place is tucked in like a hidden world! The water was so refreshing after a long hike in to the water!

We sat and enjoyed the view and then would swim again--
a very relaxing few hours!
Everyone had a good time jumping in
and swimming across the spring!
I came prepared this time to join in the swimming
and had a wonderful time in the water! I even swam over the springs--the water pressure is so great-
1.4 millions gallons a day-it holds you up in the water!
My daughter in law sent gifts from her grandparents--very old bottles that he brought up when diving off the coast of St Thomas Island many decades ago--very cool to hold the bottles and feel the difference from new bottles!
And the fabric is from grandma who is also an avid quilter!
I will enjoy them both very much!
And look! I even managed to finish the second doily!

Beautiful springs and lovely gifts! -Marsel
ReplyDeleteI'll bet that spring water sure felt refreshing (and a little shocking at first).
ReplyDeleteLooks delightful! and very welcoming!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely spot! We've got a lot of water here but nothing to swim in. Between the jelly fish and the bacteria warnings posted I wouldn't even dip a toe in the bay right now...lol.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so refreshing. We had a "feels like" temp of 113F here today. Believe me, I stayed in the AC as much of the time as I could. Those are such lovely gifts and how thoughtful of them.
ReplyDeleteWe have a pool here at the condo but it has been so full of people over the weekend that I wouldn't even think of going in the water.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy
I've said it before - you live in a truly magical place!
