  • Haha, go Special's H. 
  • Duds, our reception was at Cox Arboretum. It's one of the top spots for wedding/engagement/maternity photos.

    Yes, I know I know but they all looked at me like I was nuts when I suggested otherwise and we were only there for a total of 20 minutes.

    However, I'm hesitant about lakes and rivers. Taking a lakeside HM was not quite what I imagined.
  • I want to go to the beach. I can do that. But after the whole flesh eating bacteria dealie here in GA I won't go back into the lake again. It's just creepy.

    <div>It's great. Our ceremony was at our church, but I would absolutely recommend them. You can choose from a list of approved caterers and bring your own booze. Based on the quote from our second choice venue, we saved about $15K, and everyone loved the place.</div>

    Froggie - I know that in a salt water pool I can open my eyes in the water and it doesn't kill them. I think a lot of people like them because there isn't the whole harsh chemical things.

    Some pools have salt water systems instead of chlorine.  According to H it's expensive as hell but it's better than being all chemically.

    They have water like that in the Maldives, i'm in love with it! Well pictures anyway! Tori says it's GORGEOUS in person.

  • Huh.  Wouldn't they still have to put some sort of chemicals in it for sanitation though?  Or does the salt somehow take care of that.

    I need to google this.

  • I prefer salt water pools to chlorinated ones. They are less damaging to my hair.
  • edited July 2012
    Apparently salt plus water makes it's own chlorine.

    Interesting.

    ETA:  And now I'm trying to diagram out that reaction.  Gawd, I love Chemistry.  Also, I am a nerd.

  • Speaking of my hair, I recently started washing my hair with baking soda again. Years ago, I did it for about three years, and my hair never looked better.

    Right now, my hair is stupid shiny.
  • I've never heard of washing your hair with baking soda. 
  • I have swum with sharks. It was kinda freaky.

    Stop jinxing my sparkly clean record, y'all.

  • The only salt water pool I've been in was on the cruise ship I was on when i was 12. I didn't know people did this with their own pools but it makes total sense why they would.
  • NOTHING is better than being all chemically.  The smell of chlorine for me is like the smell of mom's home cooking for most people, ha.
