Hot Tub Fixed, Time for a Dip!

[canyonwalker]

It's been over 3 months since we used the hot tub in our townhouse complex. A bit of that is because in December we got out of the habit of using it... then the last week of the year we were traveling anyway. Once back in January we looked to use it, though... and it was broken! The heater was busted. It took a long time to get it fixed because there were problems with our previous pool vendor. The homeowners' association had to go through the process of soliciting bids from new vendors for repair and ongoing maintenance. The whole thing took many weeks. But late last week the good news arrived: the new vendor had replaced the heater, and the hot tub would be reopened Saturday!



Well, today is Saturday. And after months of waiting for a soak in our hot tub I wasn't going to wait even one more day. I did wait several hours, though. Instead of jumping in the hot tub first thing in the morning— which, come to think of it, I totally could have done!— I waited until after a good hike nearby in this weekend's beautiful, Spring-time weather then jumped in after dinner. Update: the hike was a beautiful and challenging trek to the top of Flag Hill.



It's time to get back to doing this more often.
