Little Known Presidential Facts

In celebration of this week's inauguration of the 44th president of the United States, here are 20 facts you may (or may not) know about past presidents. In warm weather, which president customarily went skinny-dipping in the Potomac River before dawn? Here is his picture:

This is none other than John Quincy Adams! Check out the rest of this fun list here.


Here is another fun fact... Which President liked to swim "without clothes" in the White House Pool? Here is his picture:In Claire Whitcomb's book "Real Life at the White House" she says: "As president, Johnson used the White House pool - he aways swam naked, and demanded that aides who swam with him do the same. Notice who is with Johnson in the picture - the Rev. Billy Graham! It is said that Billy Graham also swam naked with Johnson. CNN reports "By the early 1960s, Billy Graham was a man in full, a servant of god. A man of the people and de facto chaplain for Washington's elite. At his first meeting with Lyndon Johnson, the two country boys bonded... Supposed to be a 15-minute meeting and it turned into five hours. They traded stories. And went swimming, naked, and Billy said, they didn't have swimsuits. You just -- you just went as you were." (page over to: page 18)

Perhaps you've always wanted to try a skinny-dipping, nudist, naturist, or au naturel experience. You can at Living Waters Spa. We are located in the Palm Springs area city of Desert Hot Springs, California. We are a safe and private spa where you can enjoy hot natural mineral water in your "natural" state - i.e. naked!

154% jump in Unique Visitors - WHY?


I was shocked the other day to see our http://www.livingwatersspa.com/ site have a 154% jump in unique visits on one day. Yep, a HUGE spike in visitors. Naturally I wanted to see why so as I looked at my webmaster tools I discovered that we were mentioned on a Brazil webportal - iG - as one of the top ten nudist resorts. This is the 3rd top ten lists we've made this year.


Here is who they list:

Hidden Beach Resort - Riviera Maya, Mexico
Paradise Lakes Resorts - Land O'Lakes, Florida
Garden of Eden Resort - Isla Solarte, Panama
Caliente Resort e Spa – perto de Puerto Plata, República Dominicana
Living Waters Spa – Desert Hot Springs, California
CHM Montalivet - Montalivet, Vendays-Montalivet, France
Punta Serena – Tenacatita, Mexico
Cabanas Copal – Tulum, Mexico
Sorobon Beach Resort – Bonaire, Netherlands Antilles
Paradise corner - Piraí, Rio de Janeiro

Only one other US resorts that made the list are in Florida. So we are very proud to see our spa listed in such an international way.

Living Waters Spa is located in Desert Hot Springs California which is right next to Palm Springs. Here in our town we sit upon an aquifer of hot mineral water (we like to joke, "there are no springs in Palm Springs!"). At Living Waters Spa we pump mineral water from the earth at the rate of 20 gallons per minute for 18 hours per day. We flow it through our pools and then it goes back to the earth via dry wells that gobble (technical term) up the water. So talk about recycling.

We are the only clothing optional (you don't have to be a nudist or naturist) mineral water spa in Southern California. There are those in Northern Californa - Harbin Hot Springs and Esalen Institute - but we are the only one here in So. Cal.

You need to come for a visit...
