Reasons for wanting/having a hot tub

[vangoghsear]

I just recently purchased a 6' round Bullfrog hot tub.   I have wanted a hot tub for years because I found them very relaxing.  I read that hydro-therapy can help a person "center" themselves, and I find that to be the case. 

That was my reason for wanting one.  What was yours?

Hot tubs are so versatile in the way they provide an amazing source of relaxation anytime, hydrotherapy to sooth sore muscles, or my favorite, intimate time with my wife. It's a vacation anytime I want.

We didn't necessarily want the upkeep of a hot tub, but our friends decided that we needed a hot tub for our ski house so that they could enjoy it.
When we got married last winter they took up a collection and, long story short, we have a hot tub and use it every day. 
We have good friends.

That is another reason I wanted a hot tub.  I had been buying those...shudder...bags of water, the little $50 pools with the blowup ring top, so that the wife and I could go take a dip occasionally.  the problem was, it was never warm enough for her, except once or twice a season; she likes the water in the 90's.  So I figured, geez, that's hot tub range.  Enter the hot tub.  I love the last quote you wrote too.  It does always feel like vacation in the hot tub.  Thanks for the response!

That's a great story...and great friends!  Thanks for the response!
