got a photo of the cold tub setup…

two years ago it got used nearly every day, and last year it was barely used at all…

for the last few years the tub has been on the top deck…

this year it has moved to the lower deck and I think it is going to work well there…

the heater (which keeps the temperature at 5° Celsius), and pump, are attached to the side and removed when the tub is being used…

you can see the frozen footprints in the photo…

many people start their New Year’s Day with a cold plunge;-)…

I like to start with a hot tub… it was beautiful out, the sun was shining, there wasn’t much wind, and the chickadees were busy at the feeders…

a lovely way to begin the year…

I took out the fancy selfie stick and set it up to get a photo of me in the tub, even though Google told me it felt like -20° Celsius… which it didn’t, lol…

I did look at the plunge tub for a hot second as I walked past it, lol… if my housemate had been home I might have gone in…

that’s my story and I’m sticking with it;-)…

well, last Sunday I finally made it into the plunge tub…

didn’t get as deep as my neck… it was chilly, but I made it to two minutes…

maybe, if I do it again, I will try to get down to my neck, lol…

certainly did wake me up, but I was still shivering and my legs were cold half an hour later;-)…

fun😳🤪🤔…

last week a big black tub landed on the deck…

a few days later, in the evening, it got filled up with water…

then a cover went over it… and a heater to keep the temperature at 5° Celsius was added…

now, after a shower, someone uncovers the tub and sits in it for 3 minutes, which seems like a long time, lol…

this is what I spotted this morning;-)…

I am going to give it a try on a Sunday morning… wish me luck…
