Sundance. They told us that most of the red and orange foliage is past its prime, but that the yellow aspens were just coming into theirs --
This is typical of the kind of cabins/condos at the resort. This one is much bigger then the one we are in which has two units. This one has six units. (I was so busy admiring the foliage, that I didn't even notice the car with its hood up...heck of a photographer!)
Sundance is an interesting combination of luxury and rustic. All of the buildings are built to look like they are old and have been here forever. This is the spa where we spent most of the morning after a nice sleep-in. Forry had a deep tissue massage while I had a Wild Ginger Scrub and massage. A lovely way to start the day.
This is the entrance to our cabin, Mandan 8. We are pretty much at the top of the mountain, but right next door to the spa.
You can see the huge timbers that were used in most of the construction in this picture --
And this is what you see when you are driven up to guest registration. This is the first time in the ten years I have been coming here that there are flowers still in bloom.
It was very warm today -- short sleeve and t-shirt weather! We wandered around a bit this afternoon. We had hoped to ride the chair lift up the mountain to see all the colored foliage, but they closed it last week as they prepare for ski season.
We had an exciting beginning to the Assembly tonight. Surgeon General Dr. Regina Benjamin came to speak to the group about her new role in Washington DC. Dr. B has been a part of the Assemblies -- until last year when she had to stay in Washington for confirmation hearings. She is a family doc from Bayou LaBatre, Louisiana where we have actually visited her clinic.
