“If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.”
Romans 12:18
After leaving L’Aquila we spent Sabbath in Rieti, a city in the centre of Italy surrounded by mountains. It was 10’C . We worshiped with a small group all in our coats.
Our world with its spin making the sun set and the moon rise.
Glorious!
We decided to see Rieti another time and traveled approx 100km l, which included three long tunnels. This left the cold behind and our new allocated parking area was outside the walls of Tuscania opposite the very tidy graveyard.
Early in the morning, when taking Bess out, it was interesting to watch the flower shop owner making things ready for her customers. She already had a few buying her, yellow , white and bronze Chrysanthemums. A kindness to the memories of those who had been important to them in their lives.
Once we had parked we could smell sulphur .
We were in walking distance of…
All free.
In mythology Saturn and Jupiter had a fight and a thunderbolt accidently hit the ground.
It hit the ground enough to bring 500 liters of water per second at a temperature of 37.5’C gushing out at Saturnia.
This water has travelled with a hunger for minerals such that you can sit in limestone curves. A seat with warm water cascading round your neck. Then you can also place your arms on the back of a ‘chair’ and let the water hold you up while it splashes down between your body and your arms. If you don’t fall asleep you can keep one eye open to watch people.
A lady my age is reading a magazine her lips moving with the words as she enjoys the moments. A ‘husband’ standing a little way off, terribly well dressed, was impatiently waiting for all this to be over. She reluctantly leaves and together they go.
It is not to everyone’s taste.( or smell.) A little difficult to get into but bliss when in. So glad Roy likes it and that Bess had shade to lie down in.
So good for growth .
So glad to share this part of Italy, Saturna in Tuscany. Wish I could take this back home.
I have a therapist nature.
I’m an aquaholic!
All my troubles wash away in water.

Live at peace with everyone. 🙏🏾
God wields His paintbrush in so many beautiful ways, but sunsets and sunrises are my favorite. Hot springs are nice too though.
Ah glad you liked the brush strokes of that one .It came after a very cold day as if to say ” I am still in the sky!”
Glorious sun nature painting in the sky! And it sounds like bliss in the warm water😀
Yes, it is a natural place. How long for is a question.
The sky in those first few pictures is simply divine!! I’d love to be floating in warm water right about now—I’m freezing with my blankets on. It’s fun to live through your photos.
Wonderful views .
Yes, nature does some awesome things.
🙏🙏🙏
