June 23, 2011 - The boys & I drove out to Kahneeta for the night, with Mom & my cousin Angela. The views along the way are beautiful. As soon as we arrived at the lodge in Kahneeta, we saw a fire truck speeding up the hill. And soon found out that a guest had been barbecuing on the porch of their hotel room and sparks had flown up from the barbecue catching the outside of the hotel on fire. So they had evacuated that wing & the lobby was filled with upset guests waiting to claim their bags from their room & check out. ---Luckily, our room was on the opposite wing, so we were able to stay. No way would I have stepped back into the car after traveling in between my boys for almost 3 hours. A hotel employee said they had worked there 11 years and never had a fire. We were just thinking, what are the odds that this would occur on the night we decide to show up? But the boys did love seeing the fire trucks & police.

We arrived too late to go swimming. So we just wandered around outside & hung out in the lobby while the boys wore out some energy.

June 24, 2011 - In the morning, we had a lovely breakfast at the hotel. Then we went over to swim. The boys couldn't wait to swim! And it was great swimming in a warm pool. The water is pumped in from the natural hot springs and they cool it to a comfortable 96 degrees. The only thing is that it was really breezy, which made it really cold if you weren't in the water.
The fun thing about Kahneeta is that you can bring in your big pool floaties.
Paxton checking out the tee pees. We'll have to stay in one next time.
