Waterfall Date

Johnathan and I went on a super fun date today.  We hiked up to Diamond Fork waterfall & hot springs.  It is up Spanish Fork canyon a little ways.  It was absolutely gorgeous!  All the trees are turning beautiful colors and the hike wasn't too bad either.  It's about 2.5 miles each way.

Beautiful fall leaves!

Really warm hot springs

I about stepped on this guy.  He scared me half to death!  *shudder*

We decided we are going to go again in a couple weeks and take the kids next time.  The hike was easy enough that they could do it and they would love the hot springs.  We've heard there are a lot of people who go skinny-dipping there.  Luckily no one was today, and hopefully they wont be there when we take the kids  :)   Also, next time we are going to plan on spending more time there.  We ran out of time today and weren't able to enjoy the day as much as we wanted to.  Next time we'll give ourselves at least 4 hours for the hike.  We can hardly wait!
