Giving Thanks

Spending Thanksgiving in Tecopa Springs, CA. Population 150 full-time, 700 during winter. A scene out of a Mad Max movie....run down, decrepitude, nothing fancy here!! The gift...super hot and healing mineral pools and a town full of characters who couldn't be created by the best authors. A laid back nothingness, greatness, no rules kinda place. Loving life and living free! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
