Walls of the cave direct you to a small bright opening in which a cold mountain spring falls to bright turquoise water.
Along with Denali Mountain and Bryce Canyon, this is the most majestic place I’ve ever been.
My teeth rattling even as I could stand in only waist deep water kept me from fully enjoying it,, but no chance I was missing this just for some discomfort.
It seemed to get progressively colder tho so this is about as close as I got. In later days I’ll post a shot looking back thru the caves. The video I took is really the best indicator of the beauty here but I dunno if I can post that here or not. I may try in the comments later today.
In the Samaria Gorge on the island of Crete, Greece, lies a very deep cave with a continual cold spring waterfall. To reach it, you have to swim about 100 meters in 10 degree (C) water. I spent time thinking about hypothermia I was so cold. Nice payoff tho.

Rep. Jamie Raskin has sent letters to four of the nation's largest banks demanding information related to "more than $1.5 billion in suspicious financial transactions flagged by the banks tied to sex trafficking crimes committed by Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and their co-conspirators."

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

Heater, an orange cat with BIG eyes, nestles herself in a sea of grey blankies.
Just want to remind everyone that little moments of joy are so important right now.
For instance, my cat does not understand the human concept of kisses beyond Incoming Nose = Love. So every time she’s happy, she’ll smush her face or shove her nose into ours.
Please share your joys with us.

Sen. Kennedy with another set of probing questions about Epstein 👇
KENNEDY: Have you interviewed Secretary Lutnick?
BONDI: No senator
K: Do you plan to?
B: If he wants to talk to the FBI--
K: Don't you think you ought to talk to him after this interview? Maybe we ought to get Lutnick in here

What's happening in Chicago is not normal.
The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak up.

We Americans are being held hostage by a man who has dementia and cognitive decline, and who doesn’t have any social graces at all. This has to stop and it has to stop soon. I am retired. I worked all my life for these golden years, which are now called Trump‘s shit ass years.

FYI. If the Govt shuts down, everyone stays in town including the president but you’re just bored with nothing to do because it’s all messaging and negotiations.

“Full Force”: Hegseth’s Loyalty Test
Trump and Miller set the stakes. Now a former Fox host has to convince the military to go along with it.
When the president of the United States sends troops into an American city and the “Secretary of War” summons nearly a thousand flag officers to a pep rally to celebrate, you are not watching governance, you are watching a loyalty test.
