Thanks Mike,

I have seen a few interesing things at the springs, but nothing quite like that! One memorable experience I had was when a bus load of young German college students dropped in one Saturday about 10 years or so ago. Don't know if it was a Green Tortise tour or not...

But I got a kick out of watching them spread that nice warm black mud all over each other. They were speaking their foreign tounge, laughing, posing for each other and just having a great time. I was so intrigued by watching them have such a good time that I didn't even think to get my camera out to take pictures... with their permission of course.

Another time I visited there was an older gentleman getting permission to snap a few photos. He and I both took some shots of the pools and some other German folks along with some textiled teenagers enjoying a soak.

A year or so later I was thumbing through a new copy of "The World Guide to Nude Beaches and Resorts" and there was one of the pictures from that day, nearly identical to one of mine, that was published in the new version along with the description of Deep Creek! Don't know if it was Lee Baxandall there with me that day, or someone else. But I thought it was an interesting coincidence.
