Family Vacation

Every year the Franklin Clan goes on a family trip together. This year was Mike & Shelly's year to plan it. They picked Downata Hot Springs www.downatahotsprings.com
It is about 30 minutes before Lava Hot Springs. We had a great time being with family. We arrived Wed night, played at Downata pool Thur. and then went to Lava Pool on Fri. Rich spoiled us, and rented a cabin. It was so nice to not have to really rough it. We don't mind camping, but really miss our trailer, and he was just not up for all the "work" real camping requires. We justified it with the fact that this is probably our vacation of the summer! It was fun, because the whole family was able to come, except for Uncle Paul, who had to work. With everyone there together, it equals 13 adults, 20 kids, and 6 dogs! Quite the clan.
