i'm back...
okay- well I've been here, but not online. For Valentine's Day R and I went to Breitenbush Hotsprings about an hour and a half east of here- Sitting in hot tubs while the cool rain comes down, ideal! Lots of tubs by a raging creek, vegetarian meals (means not having to ask if the stock used in the soup is a meat stock, or asking for no bacon on your green salad!). There is also a great steamy sauna house, and if you choose you can stay overnight in their little cabins in the woods (we didn't stay). They have this awesome round cob building with neat rounded windows in it. just beautiful.
