HOT TUB - It's all about the water

Hot Springs - As the name suggests, The Spa City is home to lots and lots and LOTS of water. Most likely, when the oceans, lakes, rivers and streams turn into nasty yuck pits, the world population will start fighting over water and Hot Springs will be much coveted spot. For now, folks come together at the free and public natural water jug fountains to fill up their glass bottles, plastic milk jugs, cans, etc... with the water. They say the water has amazing powers of healing. One time I cut my hand on a bottle while trying to open it with a lighter. I rushed to the Happy Hollow jug fountian and ran our miracle water over the cut and "poof" the cut was gone and I grew a 6th finger on my right hand. Native Americans have been drinking and soaking in the water since way before Andrew Jackson decided to.... (a'hem, that's another story).

The VOV often take the bands we host to the Arlington Lawn to see, and feel the hot spring water. "OK, let's have a contest. Everyone stick their hands in the water on the count of three, last one with hands in wins bragging rights. One, Two, Three!!" Rarely does anyone make it past 10 seconds. If subjecting your hands to scalding water doesnt sound that fulfiling, may I suggest you soak your entire body in the newly restored community pools at The Quapaw Bathhouse http://www.quapawbaths.com/.

The facility is spic and span clean and the water temps are just right. Too much head bangin' - take a bath! Met that special someone at the show and after a lusty roll in the woods you tweaked your back - take a bath! Economy got you down - Bath! The Quapaw charge for a natural hot springs thermal bath is only 15 BUCKS! Super cheap and good for you too! No trip to Hot Springs is complete without a bath, yes?
