Springs For A Day

It's Memorial Day Weekend! I got to spend quality time with some of my family. One of my favorite quick getaways is Lava Hot Springs in Idaho. I've been going there at least once a year for 15 years or so. It always promises a good time. We piled everybody into Matt & Cacia's car & went on our little adventure. This is the first time I have been and not visited the hot pools, but it was still awesome. The kids were so fun to watch! The Olympic swimming pool is now heated for your pleasure. It sports the super tall diving platforms for the brave and crazy. A new addition is two amazing water slides. What a riot! Matt & I went down them again and again. It made me feel like a kid again. One of them is pitch black inside. It is very disorienting! My last run I came flying out of the chute at the bottom...one leg hanging out and totally confused. I was so dizzy I couldn't walk straight and didn't even know if my swimsuit was still on. It was sure good for a laugh. It was great to hang out and get a little sun, even though the weather was threatening to rain on us all day. We ended up getting lucky and had a wonderful time, even being stuck in a traffic jam for 2 hours on the way home! I love these peeps!
