Hot Springs in Cold February

About 45 miles from the cabin, near Buena Vista, there are some hot springs that we went to over President's Day weekend.  The Lundells cam along and we enjoyed the hot water, cold breeze and lots of wonderful Colorado Sunshine!

In addition to the swimming pools, they had creek pools where the hot springs came straight into the creek. You could arrange the rocks to let more or less cold water from the creek in to adjust your temperature. 


The cooler of the two pools had a lap lane and play area where the kids had chicken fights.  This is Marissa and Brook on Emma and Landon's shoulders.

...And Marissa goes down!


Katie, Lisa and Ashley posing pretty.  Lisa and I decided that we would make a fashion statement by keeping warm in our swim suit, parka and snow boots.  It was a very good look for us!

Exhausted, Emma collapsed in the car on the drive home.
