anyone know where the fountain of youth is?

Answer 1

Founding of St. Augustine
Don Juan Ponce de Leon arrived in America with Columbus on his second voyage, 1493. Leon and his fellows, not Columbus, completed Spain's claim to the New World. Made governor of Puerto Rico in 1510 and later deposed, Ponce de Leon, at his own expense, equipped an expedition to the North in 1513. A few years previous, Amerigo Vespucci had discovered and claimed the South American continent for Spain. Two of the mightiest nations in the world stood opposed for proprietorship of half the globe. Ponce De Leon heard Indians tell of Bimini, a fabulous island in the North. Historians do not unanimously honor at full value the beautifully romantic story that Ponce was seeking to find the fountain of youth. Yet it was not incredible to men of that day - when the very existence of a New World was hardly believable to those who had not seen it with their own eyes - that those who had touched these shores should believe in greater magic in this strange realm. And certainly there is no legend more appropriate to the beginning of America than that this new land should offer men a vision of eternal youth. Indeed it has! With his able navigator, Anton Alaminos, Ponce sailed and charted the ocean's main artery, the Gulf Stream, shaping the destiny of oceanic transport for all time to come.

The Fountain of Youth National Archaeological Park in St. Augustine is the site where Spanish conquistadors first came ashore in what is now the continental United States. On April 3, 1513, in the season of "Pascua Florida" - as Easter Season is known in Spanish (meaning Feast of Flowers) - Ponce de Leon expedition sighted land in the present locality of St. Augustine and named it La Florida. When they landed, the priest who had accompanied the soldiers said a Mass of thanksgiving as the native Timucua Indians looked on. Ponce de Leon took possession of the continent for Spain. In later years pioneering Spaniards came to know St. Augustine Inlet as Barra de la Florida although there is no direct evidence that Ponce de Leon himself gave the inlet this name. With the landing of Ponce de Leon, Spanish claim to Florida was established. Spain was thus set squarely against England on this continent. Ponce de Leon's claim in effect, covered all of America from Florida to Labrador, from coast to coast. And enforcement of that claim during the three centuries to follow has indelibly marked the geography, religious history and even the "native" customs of the nation we know and love today as the United States of America. The most vivid references to this early Spanish history will not be found in books - only in the historic landmarks you can see in St. Augustine today.

Answer 2

Okay, start on I90 towards Rochester, NY. Go 30 miles until you see the fountain of youth exit. Take the exit, turn right left right and then right. Go two miles through the grass and skid backwards to the left. You won't see it until you get out of your car, if you get out too fast it will disappear. It might take a few tries until you can see it. You see it's sort of like a mirage and if you get out too fast you'll spook it. There ya go man. Wait, when you get there you must lie naked on your back drinking the water. You must be naked so your body soaks in the water quickly. Drink it fast before it's gone and don't tell anyone that I told you where it is. I think Dove is already trying to put this magic water in their new body washes and if you don't get it all before they do it will be gone.
