 Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas everybody! I am spending my Christmas morning at a West Texas picnic area over here. That right there, if you saw yesterday's video, is Guadalupe Mountain National Park. We're just on the outskirts of it. And our friend Nick, Black Pearl Trevato, took off. Claire Bear's doing her Christmas makeup. How are you feeling this Christmas day? Cold! Yeah, it was a little cold last night. It was like, I don't know, 29 degrees or something like that. I tried to fly the drone this morning. Something was going on with it. So yet again, DJI Mavic Pro not functioning. Also, the gimbal is not working. I don't know if it's a setting or if it's broken. But yeah, it also wasn't working this morning when Nick was heading out. Today, being Christmas, a lot of stuff is closed, including the National Parks. So we can't go inside there unless we were to walk Anna, I suppose. So we're gonna head west and head towards a hot spring at a resort, which is for sure open. So that will be a nice fun thing to do. And we can warm Claire Bear up a little bit. Yesterday's video, you'll see that I did a giveaway for some postcards. I will hand write a postcard to someone. I will do a giveaway in another video. I'll probably do them like a week apart or so. The reason being, I want to space them out and give everybody a chance. Sometimes people binge watch, some people, yeah, like catch up all at once and stuff like that. So I want to make sure everybody has a chance. And I think today's, there was a video, there's two videos that actually went out today. I had to take it down because it was for the giveaway. It was supposed to be for tomorrow. So yeah, it'll just be a simple thing. I'll announce that in the future. But just a little way to give back to you guys for being such awesome viewers, for supporting me on my journey and the channel. And just a little token of my appreciation. Well, chilly, huh? Oh, interesting echo. Echo! Cool. We're just driving down the road. Waterloo Mountains, right back there. You can barely see it. And El Paso is the destination today. Oh, update. I sent an email to the guy over at Riverbend Hot Springs. A really nice guy, Jake, who's a manager, is by far my favorite commercial hot spring that I've ever been to. And today's Christmas, I said, hey man, look, I know it's Christmas. I don't mean to bother you, but we're coming to town either way. And yeah, they're gonna comp us a dip in the springs tonight. It was gonna be awesome. But yeah, we just spotted this abandoned something on the side of the road. I'm gonna guess it was like some kind of old motel. Of course I could be totally wrong, but this seems like it would be a motel. Bathroom? Some kind of something. Looks like that's maybe multiple toilet situation. Is that what that is? Cool. So, multiple toilets and then, or showers. And it looks like there's like little rooms here. Just so fascinating to see these old places and wonder what they used to look like way back in the day. But here's the leftovers. Here's, I'm guessing, maybe is where you park your car or something like that. What do you think? I don't know. It's probably a hotel, I can imagine. Motel, hotel, holiday inn. There's windows on the back. Yeah. This is interesting. It looks like a water tank right there. So that's probably where, well, of course that's where the water came from over here to plumb the toilets and the showers. But yeah, this is just an example of the cool stuff you see when you're on really small highways in middle of nowhere America. I just kicked dirt all in my shoe. So about 30 miles east of El Paso is an alien dome spaceship. Dome office. Apparently it's now for sale. So we're gonna have a peek here. If anybody's interested, well, you can come out and purchase your own spacecraft office building or home. I don't know what used to be here, but it says the office is open by appointment only. Quite interesting. They definitely have a sense of humor because there's a little, it's a Marvin the Martian right there which is pretty pretty awesome. I love when people have creativity and a sense of humor and, you know, build something unique. It definitely makes, it makes for a conversation piece. Just like the bus in a way is a conversation piece. It's not your typical RV. This too is not your typical home. Look where we are. My favorite commercial hot springs in the planet. River Bend hot springs in truth or consequences. We're gonna go check in and then we're gonna jump in the pool for, I don't know, hours and hours and hours today. You excited? Yeah. Yeah me too. Here is the hot springs property from the Rio Grande. So there as you can see there are multiple little pools. This is a whisper zone so I'll stop talking a minute. There's three over there and then there's a large one under the shack and this is the incredible, incredible view which is right down on a very, very slow section of the Rio Grande. Oh look there's even a bunch of carp down there too. Hook me up with a wristband after already being in the hot spring for an hour and Claire and basically we're gonna go now for a one-hour private tub which you'll see in a second but we did stop by. We got a little Christmas dinner over Denny's. Got a little pot roast and turkey dinner. A little bit better than lunch today. It's Sonic. Anyways let's go check out this private tub. So we're good. We have a bathroom. We have a shower 24 hours a day over here. Well overnight I should say and perfect little boondocking spot right on the Rio Grande right at a hot spring. How amazing is that? Outside of the hot spring in this right here is the private pool. I really don't need to tell you guys how incredible it was because I already told you how incredible the other water is and it's essentially the same water. The same incredible factor which is like off the charts and this way you just have a nice private area. You by yourself or you know special somebody in my case it was me very full stomach and the clear dactyl in her very full stomach. Incredible place. If you guys come through to your sea I highly recommend this place. It's very clean very nice and the people here are very friendly. Alright this is what the incredible nighttime scene is like. They have a bunch of LEDs right on the river and really cool light features here as well coming off of a little laser. Laser LED or something like that across the way. There's lasers pointed out across the Rio Grande and in a nutshell you can see why it's one of my favorite commercial hot springs to go to. It's just super nice. There's hands over there, couches, lounges, great water. They flush them out every single day. I'm sold so it is time now for bed. I am exhausted and I'm still super full.
