At Big Bend Ranch National Park, we went to the famous hot springs! The hot springs are actually on the bank of the Rio Grande River, which borders the United States and Mexico. So if you look in the direction of the Rio Grande you will be able see Mexico. It is awesome! We weren’t the only ones at the hot springs. There were a few other people there too. We had very good conversations with the other people at the hot springs and we told them about S.O.A.R. While we were walking to and from the hot springs we saw ornaments and are creations that people had made and were selling them on the side of the road. There were decorated walking sticks and little animals made out of beads. We had a very important nightly meeting at the hot springs, where we talked about major issues within the group. That was a very fun part of the trip for me. I really enjoyed sitting in the hot water and talking about important issues within the group. Hopefully our group can continue to have good talks like the ones we had at the hot springs. Peace!
