But, on the other hand...

Spending an hour and a half in a salt water pool has done amazing things for my skin.  My face and hands particularly.  My hanging chad cuticles now look like those of a hand model.  The rough patches on my face (mild dermatitis seborreica) have totally disappeared.

It's totally weird and actually very nice.

Sadly as nice as it is, it is not enough to put me through the whole thing again but if I ever find a salt water pool that doesn't take a day hike to get to and a day hike to be back from, I'm totally going in again!

Hoping you won't take offense.... are you at a point where you might want to discuss a handicap parking permit with your doctor? If you get a hang tag you need never use it or even display it except when you are in a situation like yesterday... but when you are choosing not to go someplace because you can't walk to and from, that's exactly what those tags are for.

No offense taken at all!!! And likely I'll get there one day but it wouldn't have even helped last night. I actually parked next to the handicapped spots!!

Maybe it could be a monthly excursion...but I totally understand your point.

Swims in the ocean were always really good for my skin.

yep the salt water pools are like a spa trip :) Clears my eczema right up and makes me smooth all over.
