From way over in redneck-ville....


Not really sure about this one - Kevin can you chime in?

A timely article

Here are some things the pros at BuyerZone suggest you consider when shopping for a hot tub:

* Most buyers prefer to install their hot tubs outside. Look at your yard and landscape and decide on potential installation locations. Hot tubs can sit above or below the ground.

* Sizes of hot tubs vary from small models that seat just 2 people to large models that seat 10 or more. How many people do you want to accommodate? A 7-foot tub is a fairly common size and typically seats about 4 to 6 people.

* There are 2 primary options for heating the water in your hot tub: electricity or gas. Electric heaters are more common and somewhat less expensive to install; natural gas heaters can reduce your operating costs over the long run.

* When you're getting price quotes on spa tubs, make sure the estimates include all aspects of the purchase: the tub itself, delivery, and installation, including electrical and water hookups.



My question is - if I live in a three bedroom condo, will my wife let me put a 4-6 man hot tub in the first bedroom?

Updates and reminiscing


It has been nearly a year between meaningful posts here at Responsible Hot Tubbing and I thought it was high time to do something about it. Since both Kevin and I have fulfilled the unspoken mission of BYU by getting married (pretty unbelievable actually), you may have thought that this blog no longer would serve a purpose. The truth is, that we have both moved on and have little time nor reason to hot tub - and that is a crying shame! Think of all the Provo socialites that we met, the memories made, and the shriveled up toes and fingers! Those memories will always remain firm in our minds and we will pass them on to our children through this blog. So this post goes out to you Sadie.

From day one, Sadie did not enjoy the tub as much as I thought she would. She is, after all, my child. Shouldn't she love to lounge and splash in warm water? Turns out, no. Nope, she does not like to take a bath and actually screamed the entire time she was in it. Looks like I'll have to do some more training with her as she gets older. I was just thinking that it is never too young to start. Guess I was wrong.
