The human brain-the greatest machine to feel the warmth of winter!

Some may refer to it as presumptively unrealistic, but we can all sit by a real or imaginary fireplace and truly believe it is invitingly warm outside. Close your eyes and let the vivid imaginations commence. Each brain can systematic transfer the body to the white soft beaches of that inviting warm pacific hideaway island with floating puffy clouds drifting by. Or perhaps, glimpse at that brand new refreshing swimming pool about to open its doors in Nephi, Utah. That was the thoughts of many of us as we contributed funds to help the City build it, and the large thermometer in front of City Hall that continued to rise until the goal was met. The first photo was taken courtesy of The Times News of 1959(Judge John Robertson is with bow tie) and the second photo showing the crowd in the pool after it opened. The third photo was recently discovered and thought to be about 1930 in the playground where the Nephi Pool is now located. The North School was located east of the park which was then called "Pioneer Park", and many kids and adults hung out there. Swimming in a pool was an invited change to hitching a ride to Burraston or going to the swimming hole by the Utah Poultry of Salt Creek, as we had to share it with the railroad Hobo's that bathed there!
