IT turned out to be a sulphur bath - smelled like 10000000 rotten eggs - got in anyway cuz I'm a sport and thought, oh mercy, can I endure this and will i reek? Well, I floated, of all things and the next thing I knew the swelling in my ankle and in my hands was gone. GO figure. Then I took a HUGE shower!!!!! SMell gone. Whew!
Okay, floating in a sulphur bath. What was the consistency, like water? You are a sport! Did you ask for nose plugs?
Glad it was physically beneficial. Is the swelling still gone?
What smelly things are on the rest of your agenda?
Too funny...

Dot and All--
We stayed there years ago. Love the grounds and they have some cute shops.
But my Greenbrier story--My husband had this Polo shirt that was shot. It had a hole under the armpit and faded. So I put it in the trash in the bathroom and even put some stuff on top so the housekeeping staff would know I meant to throw it away. We left the Greenbrier and went to some other places. When we got home there was a package at the door. The red Polo shirt was freshly laundered and folded in the package. All this at no charge.
Later--

Oh, my gosh! That is so funny!
So, Mair, were does that infamous shirt reside now? Kathy

JD wore it another time (since it was all nice and clean and folded) and then I threw it away again. My garbage men did not launder it and fold it and put it by our door like the Greenbrier housekeeping staff!

What a funny question! But a good one! Miriam had to have just the right name. I had a nun who was my grammar school principal named, what else, Sister Miriam. She scared the devil out of me and in later years I came to see what a sweetheart she really was. She would've been Sister Mellie! Sometimes I name characters after friends and sometimes I use the phone book. It took me five books to remember to use search and replace for names like Josephine - type them as Jo and then go back. Short names are good.
I think Julie Andrews in the sound of music was more of a Sister Mellie lol

I don't get the NY Times....were there pros and cons on using them? Some people I know use them,
some hate them. 
I don't need them, I just think they're
