I used to have a 1/2 wine barrel type hot tub and loved it, especially when there was snow all around on the ground and in the trees - it was beautiful! - but the natural hot springs are too hot for me. I'm kind of a temperature wimp. :)Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516591720277269204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-51133781313172992882014-06-23T16:02:24.580-07:002014-06-23T16:02:24.580-07:00Merikay, I am having fun following your trip.

We're enjoying the hot weather, even if it curtails some of our outdoor plans.

I think there are some hot springs in the Black Hills area of SD and Thermopolis, WY has some hot springs, too.

When we were there it was not yet a National Park and they were working towards getting the bath house you visited restored for visitation. <br /><br />Happy trails!meowmommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01209824648988317879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-56731889234169622242014-06-22T15:00:37.662-07:002014-06-22T15:00:37.662-07:00From what I found , it's "Toad Suck Buck...From what I found , it's "Toad Suck Bucks".... I read one review about great steaks. Don't think you missed anything to feel bad about. <br /><br />We once visited Hot Springs and I was treated to the works at the Buckstaff or Buckhorn. I had a bath with a washing by an attendant, wrapping any bothersome body part with hot towels for a specific time period, an eternity siting in a hot steam box with only my head outside for one minute, a sits bath in the mineral water, a "needle shower" of 98* water (the pipes went up and down and were perforated every couple of inches) and then a full one hour body massage! I think the prices have come up... I paid $18.00!!!meowmommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01209824648988317879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822169260430560826.post-51041946770158825212014-06-22T14:54:41.775-07:002014-06-22T14:54:41.775-07:00Hope to get to Hot Springs on the way down to TX t...Hope to get to Hot Springs on the way down to TX this winter.

Are you going to do any sightseeing in South Dakota while you are there? If you haven't been there, I recommend Custer State Park. We stayed in a private park just east of the town of Custer, I think it was called Custer Gulch. We were there over the 4th of July in 2012 and the temps were cooler in Custer than in other parts of the Black Hills. Carol Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428623116947826625noreply@blogger.com
