RE: The Jemez River in New Mexico

Reading about the Thailand monasteries is what got me interested in the monastic life. I hope to visit someday!

This place has natural hot springs at just the right temperature. There's an organic gardener working with WWOOFers. It's situated in a tiny little mountain town of 200 people surrounded by high red rock mesas with a year round river flowing through with fishies. Worth a visit if you're ever in the area.

Ah now that you mention it, I have heard of the Jemez hotsprings. We went and spent time in the Gila... such a wonderful wonderful place - with hot springs too...

That sounds amazing. Are you staying with said gardener? I loved living in New Mexico- such freedom in the air! Sad to say, the consciousness is not that free in the midwest where we live, but hey! that's why we're here- to liven things up a bit ;) Thanks for the tip :)

Sounds like I need to visit Gila next!

The gardener lives at the monastery, and I'm there for a little while as well.

Thanks for having such a good influence on the Midwest!
