Steamed Muscles

That's what the ad on the ski lift for the Hot Springs Pool reads. It's the largest pool in the world that is heated by hot springs. It's kinda funny to go from a tropical paradise to a place where the life guards wear winter coats, observing the pool from the comfort of their heated, enclosed life guard shacks. It feels great after a day of boarding, but it's awfully hard to make yourself get out and face the freezing cold air. A sign on the pool deck says, "Beware of Ice."
