Yes, another hot spring. On 700 acres of beautiful California countryside. Hey, even Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens) visitied this one. A full day of R&R, no show until the 11th.

First, a dip in the mineral tubs...a natural 90 degree warm water soak; then a dip in the 104 degree hot tub.
A thirty minute walk will get us to a beautiful waterfall.
So, Malkum and I decide to take the trail up to the waterfall.
"Just follow the path up stream"...or is the stream the path? Along the way, we encounter newts, loose wet stones, a truck carcass and a disappearing path.
Next tour's equipment carrier?
Pretty nice, huh?
Malkum is just a few months younger than I, so I am the
old guy of the Tour now.
So, the two old men of the Tour hiked the treacherous creek trail to get to the waterfall.
It is just the kind of path that would twist the ankle of a dancer.
You CAN get what you wish for...this is the salad I was hoping to find to finish off the perfect day of relaxing and hiking.
Right in Ukiah, the world's largest redwood tree service station, now a museum.
Inside were photos of the tree being cut down and trucked to this site to be set up.
When was the last time you saw gas for 28 cents a gallon?
Much less ethyl?
Back to the motel where we have little trouble falling asleep.
