Ojo Caliente Overview

Saturday’s post was a few pictures of our get-away weekend at Ojo Caliente Hot Springs Resort. This video gives a more complete picture of the good time we had.

Saturday morning we woke up to a little snow …

Sunday, we woke up to a 22 degree morning, but our hot spring pool still felt great.

Last Monday In March

In case you’re still waiting for March to leave as a Lamb …

Whenever Spring does come, a gardening tip …

Don’t know if these are real people, but still cool …

Photoshopped or not, a cool picture …

Hmmmm? …

Sometimes you just want the feel of a real book in your hands …

Bacon to the rescue …

You always want to look your best when you’re in public …

A good caution the next time you fight a lion …

When the cats arrive, the party is definitely out of control …

I don’t know where this is, but I want to live there …

You got to admit it catches your attention …

Of course they do …

I have nothing on my calendar tomorrow, so I think I’ll celebrate with Jessie …

This is what the Bible tells us husbands in different words …

Finally, a good reminder there are men and women living very difficult lives, so we continue to have the freedom to fight over ridiculous things …

The Windows To Our Soul

(Matthew 6:22-24) “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!”

OJO Caliente – First Day

We wanted to take a few days away and went North of Santa Fe to a hot springs resort called Ojo Caliente (Hot Eye). It has several hot springs pools throughout and a great restaurant.

It’s nestled along some interesting cliffs and rock formations. We’re staying in the Pueblo Suites which has its own pool seen to the left in the picture below behind the rock wall.

Day visitors don’t arrive until 10:00 AM so those who are overnight guests like us have the run of the place in the early morning. If it gets crowded, we can retire to the pool mentioned above which is only for overnight guests.

There are many separate pools with different types of mineral water. Many say their water is good for arthritis which appeals to old folks like us.

Nighttime view with our building to the left. The private pool is in the center. Above the ridgeline the moon is setting along with a planet, perhaps Venus.

At night, in fact all day, we’re enjoying a cozy fire in our kiva fireplace.

We came in on Thursday afternoon and the pictures above are from Friday. We’ll have all day Saturday and leave after breakfast on Sunday to return home.

Good News Wednesday

On Sunday, our last day in Fort Collins, it was a beautiful afternoon, so we took Jessie and Luna to the Larimer Country Humane Society dog park …

This picture was taken by Marie on our way to the dog park …
