My mountain adventure (Image heavy)

Okay guys, so last week I went to the Fairmont Hot Springs with my mom and my sister for three days of pure relaxation.
It was really hot, but both nights we all enjoyed the Hot Springs, which were wonderful. There was also a wet and dry sauna, and a pool that was very very hot, and another that was freezing cold, and by getting really hot in the first, then jump into the second to freeze, then back, it's supposed to be good for your heart. I don't know about my heart, but it sure was cold in the second pool! Going back into the hot one make my legs and feet prickle
I took hundreds of photos and definitely do not have the patience to upload all of them, so here are some random photos that I uploaded










View from the chair to the hot springs



There were some pretty flowers there too, so here's a macro shot


I had a great time, and might be heading up there in December with Aadil. Nothing sounds better than sitting in the hot springs all day while it snows out!

Thanks, everyone! I had such a great time, the mountains have always been one of my favourite places to be.
And Art, my intention was to make it seem like whoever looking at it was there. I know it might look like quite the butt

Great pics!!! That looks soooo relaxing. I love the outdoors. If it was legal I would live in the woods I think. Nothing more beautiful than God's country. Glad to see you enjoyed yourself.

I'd want to live in the woods too, as long as it was bug free and there were showers!

Love the Knees Ashley. Thank God I wasn't the only one that thought that was a moon shot.

The photos were stunning. Especially the sunsets.

Your Fan,
