hot springs

Over the holidays we drove to Boise to spend time with family and friends. We all had a lot of fun. We had so much fun that I didn't want to stop and grab a camera, neither did Jacob. We did have it handy for this occasion though. On our way home we meet our friends the Roberts at some hot springs near Warm Lake. We had a blast. It was 15 degrees and there was a ton of snow, but the water was steamy dreamy. After drying off we finished the adventure with burgers and fries in Mccall at My Father's Place. Their food is super deluxe!! The perfect way to end our wonderful vacation.

Lots of gear to try to keep the kids warm before and after being in the water.
Kind of long, steep and slippery but we all made it down.
Main hot spring. There is another up the creek a little way to the right.
The water was burning hot. Here the kids are waiting for the cold creek water to cool it down.
The Roberts and the Borgs
I love their frosty hair and eyelashes

Wow!! That was fun! I started back at Halloween pictures, which, you're right, are great. Are those girls sitting in a seat riding a roller-coaster? That's pretty darn imaginative. I never think of things like that! Alice's Shot brought tears to my eyes. It is amazing what people can accomplish when they focus their energies on one common goal. ("Press Forward Saints!")I love it. Congratulations on the new smell. It sounds divine. I have chosen several times through my life, I think what expresses us as "me" changes over time. My last fragrance was Deep Red, I'd have to go see if it's still "the one". Dad always says, "you smell good" when I use Herbal Essence shampoo. Can't be easier to please than that. ha!

Johnny, this looks like so much fun! Is this hot spring near McCall? We are going to be in that area next weekend to visit my parents and I would love to venture out and have a fun stop along the way here! Will you email me where this is and maybe a little info on how we can find it??? leslie.luvs@yahoo.com. Thank you!!
