Last week Barbara and I traveled from New Orleans to the town and national park of Hot Springs in Arkansas. As far as national parks go this isn’t one of the better ones. However we enjoyed our visit. At this location rain water and snow melt percolates down through the cracks in the crustal rock, is heated from below and comes back to the surface as hot springs of almost pure water. This trip takes approximately 4,400 years to complete. Each day nearly 700,000 gallons of 143 degree water comes to the surface in 27 springs located in the area. This water is so pure that it is potable straight from the ground. There are two springs in town where you can fill your own bottles for free.
