The weather was great today. Blue skies and a high temp of about 85 degrees, with almost no humidity. We did 4 loads of laundry this morning, then hit the Hot Springs pool. The pool is separated into 3 distinct areas. The hot pool had a temp of 103, then the cooler pool had a temp of about 90. The third pool is for the diving boards, of which there are two of them. The high dive is about 10 ft off the water and the low dive is about 4 ft off of the water. Watching the kids (and some adults) dive was a lot of fun. At one point they were having "belly smacker" contests. Some of the kids were doing double somersaults off of the high dive. We spent just about the whole day in the pool, switching from the hot pool to the cooler pool, then back again. We went back to the camper for supper, but then went back to the pool in the evening till it closed at 10:00.
There are over 100 forest fires presently burning in British Columbia, so wood campfires are forbidden. However, what are allowed are propane campfires. The store at the campground had an excellent price on these propane units. The price was better than what Amazon was selling them for and with the US dollar being worth much more than the Canadian dollar, we decided to purchase one. So tonight we had a campfire before retiring for the night.
