Liz surprised me for valentines day and took me to Ouray to the Weisbaden Spa and Hot Springs - which were so nice and relaxing... they had a vapor cave that was set back into the mountain. You walked downstairs through a wooden door that led into the rock wall of the mountain - and then followed the stream back into the mountain to another wooden door to the actual vapor cave which was about 108-110 degrees. It was very cool.
We then went to Silverton - which is known for its steep and deep powder. They only have guided skiing and so we toured the mountain with a small group of skiers and had fresh tracks all day long. They had just received 20 inches of fresh snow - so it was glorious to say the least. Here's an article from the NY Times about it.
We then drove back to CB - stopping along the way to soak in Orvis Hot Springs - again it was relaxing and rejuvenating.
All in all - it was a fantastic weekend.
Despite some major bumps in the road lately - things seem to be running a bit more smoothly - hey, whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger - Right?
