Hot Pots

 I am not a huge fan of winter because it's cold and it is a lot harder to find things to do. In the summer you can hike, go camping, swimming, hike some more, have fires....the possibilities are endless. Even though it isnt summer yet Blaine came up with the brilliant idea to go to the Hot Pots in Diamond Fork Canyon. We got to hike, relax in a hot tub (sort of) and hang out with Bretty and Ann. It was the best day ever! The weather was not bad at all (I'm probably a little overdressed in the pic, but better safe than sorry right?) The hike to the Hot Pots was probably a couple miles...snow boots made the hike a little more difficult but definitely nothing to complain about!

 We got to the Hot Pots and we saw a bunch a naked people sitting in them....just kidding....but I wouldnt be surprised at all. We got there and hopped right in! The water was so warm! It was crazy because it really felt like a little hot tub...a little more dirty and smelled a little like eggs, which was ok! :) Blaine was the first to get in. He completely put his whole body and head under the water (and his hair smelled like eggs the next day even after he showered! Haha!) Once we were done in the Hot Pots we started hiking back. Good thing we brought a flashlight because it was literally pitch black if we looked straight a head of us without the light.

 It did get a little creepy hiking when it was that dark. I think at one point each of us thought we saw a big, scary bear or mountain lion when really it was just a tree stump! This was such a fun night and Blaine and I couldnt be happier to have such good friends to share the experience with. Another thing we are grateful for? The Lord taking care of us the entire time. Brett brought up a good point once we were back to the car....we dont realize how the Lord blesses and takes care of us without us even realizing it.
