Page 1 . 📖 Illuminated in the darkness was something shimmering in the reflection of white light below the surface of the water. Quartz crystal was visible as I reached into the water and into the sand with my lantern lighting the waters at my feet. The darkness of the cave system makes it hard to tell for sure what time of day it is. Something in my soul flickered as if tuning into Suns position when I entered the cave and the time it must be right now. I sensed the Sun above and it felt like noon. I decided to take a closer look at this quartz crystal that I could feel through my water shoes as possibly sharp enough to cut my foot if my feet were bare and unprotected. 🩴🩴. I decided this was the perfect time to take my water shoes off and and air my feet out now that I was sure the water had no sharp objects just sand and quartz that was mostly smooth due to the speed of waters through this cave system. Fine sand and quartz the water was not as cold as I expected it to be as I was reminded of near by geothermal volcanology that processes the local Hotsprings system. The water temperature seemed pleasant and almost luke warm. I heard a rock skip behind me and I turned to look. I was expecting to see more light from the tunnel to the left as I assumed Melissa was probably wondering how long I would be before I climbed to the surface. It must be about noon and Melissa is reminding me to come to the surface for lunch.
