Here are the last photos of this unusual and beautiful natural spring in the desert which maintains a temperature of 80 degrees all year round. Lake Mead is easily in view when looking west. There are fish living in the pool below the dam, what kind they are I have no idea but they live on a thin line with a warm spring water source and a pool below the dam that is man-made from the rocks laying around. Living on the edge! Sunshine and 100 degrees are on tap for today, it’s nice that the daily high has not approached 110 or 115 yet.
Your descriptions and photos provide a nice feel for an area I’ve never been to!
(That’s one nasty amoeba 😟.)
Thanks, Belinda, can you imagine how sick you would be! Always pay attention to the signs, people!
Such beautiful blue skies. The 100 degrees… 🔥🥵🔥🌵🔥🥵
I love those blues!! It’s only 99 today, I can feel the difference and it’s nice. 😂🔥🌴
Whew – stay cool!
Hello air conditioning! 🤩
🥰
Ah! I see the organism is named here. It is not Giardia. Yes, the amoebic diseases are nasty ones.
That sounds horrible, Lavinia! EEEwww!!
Oh my! Don’t get in that for sure!
Yeah, unless you wanna croak!
I wonder if that water affects other animals around there? They wouldn’t know to read the signs or keep their noses above the water. 😧
That’s a darn good question! If I were a thirsty critter, that big pond and the flowing water would be a magnet. Maybe the critters have an immunity to the bacteria?
Maybe. I hope so.
What a way to die, eh? 🤨
😢
They would have no idea about the dangers.
That is probably the same amoeba that I heard about when a man did a sinus rinse with tap water and he died from the amoeba getting into his brain. I always use distilled water for sinus rinses after hearing about that.
Wow, I never heard about this, poor man! I use distilled in my CPAP machine, you can’t run any other kind of water or it will mess up the machine. I could use a sinus rinse!
I would never do a sinus rinse without the distilled water. But the sinus rinse is a very good way to prevent a cold. At the first hint of a sore throat I do that and it goes away (so far, so good).
That’s great! I have been looking for another sinus rinse kit, can’t find one and I used to do that often. Guess I’ll try Amazon…
Any pharmacy (and Costco) has NeilMed sinus rinse.
I will have a look!
