An Interesting Day at the Pool

Well, Amy & I took a tip from a friend on a pool "resort" in wine country on Sunday. We realized we should not have listened to said friend because he has two children. There is no way that two 30-something women without kids would want to be in the same place children enjoy. Except maybe Disney World.

Anyway, we drove up to Sonoma to the Morton Warm Springs. I was so confused on what this would be like. I thought the pools you swim in were warm spring water. Turns out the Warm Spring is a brook-like thing that ran behind the "resort". Notice I use quotes when saying "resort" because this was really like an old school, low budget public pool.

There were three pools in this area, a large grassy picnic area, and a club house type thing with changing rooms & a snack bar. It was FILLED with kids and they were going crazy. Screaming & Splashing themselves like they were on fire. Well, we decided that since we drove the hour up there, we would take advantage of the weather. We were able to get out of the fog and lay in the sun for a few hours. Despite our lowered expectations, it was nice to sit there in the sun!

After sitting by the pool for a few hours, we made the trek home. We stopped at Jacuzzi Family Vineyards for a free wine tasting before we got on our way!


Overall, it was a fun afternoon! We were able to get out of the foggy weather and enjoy some sun & wine.
