Figured we were on the wrong
path. Met two Forest Service
Personnel, and asked them the
way.
They said we were on
the right path, and that it was
a bit damp. (An understatement)
They offered to take us out
there. So took off my shoes and
went barefoot. They are build­
ing a new path, that will be
completed at a later date. It
is something to see. About 50
feet acrons and reminds one Of
the Morning Glory pools at
Yellowstone.
The water is
just as clear as glass, and just
as blue as Crater Lake. They
said they had measured it at
one spot down to 70 feet, but
ran out of line , so don’t know
how much deeper It is. You
can throw a frog in, and he
will swim for a couple of se­

sink.

your foot into Ice water.

You can see trees way
down in the bottom. And there
are the wise ones that have
thrown beer cans into it. There
is no known inlet, but it drains
out into the marsh in a little
creek. Very odd, you just walk
across this large meadow, and
there it is. No warning, just
there it is
Can't understand
why it hasn’t had more publi­

week, more on that later.
Don't forget the car wash at
the Lions Hall on the 21st.,
Saturday. The bowling gals are
getting close to their goal for
