The kids were out playing in the bush when they came across this cool new bubbling spring.

Soon after we decided to clean up the brush around the spring to expose it.

Very cool! You put a decent amount of work into building out that stream! Bet it feels great to see ot when it's roarin'!

Thanks 😊
Hard work pays off, its relaxing to sit out there and just listen to it roaring down the little falls. 😎

Thats the best water in the world!

The temperature of the spring is 0 degrees and is super tasty drinking water.
