Hot Springs-A nice treat after a 4 day camping trip!

We checked into the High Country Lodge cabins (cute, cozy lodge with a good breakfast) outside of Pagosa Springs

 

and headed to the Springs Resort for a sip.  It was nice and relaxing.  They had many choices to choose from:  natural to manmade pools, warm to hot pools, small to large pools.  We sampled quite a few!

 

 San Juan River in background:

Unfortunately dinner was calling for the kids so we cut our visit short.  Next time I'd allow 3-4 hours to get the maximum benefit.  Amazingly a couple of restaurants had long waits so we headed here (small house) where we  

 ended up eating outside but had good food.  The heat lamps didn't do enough to warm any of us up but we were so hungry we almost didn't care.

 The next day we visited this artists shop (Handcrafted Interiors) before we headed out.  They had all sorts of crazy cool things.

 Stopped here (A Mimi's Cafe) for a quick snack.  Had extremely yummy, fresh Chinese food!

 Sadly, it was time to head home!
