Valentine's Day getaway

We decided to getaway for Valentine's Day for a change of pace.  This year we decided to go to Benton Hot Springs and stay in the B&B for 3 days and 2 nights.  The weather was scary good.  You could get use to winters like this and last year, but we do need some weather to come in.  Even highway 120 was open out of Lee Vining, which is usually closed this time of year.
We even decided to bring Murphy along for the trip, but getting him motivated when he is next to the fire can be difficult to do.... it is a rough life!!
Once on the road Cathy will always find time to train the Murph and he is always willing to learn.
Being my Valentine requires a lot of relaxing.

It was also time to try on and adjust Murphy's new backpack.



He looks ready to go for the next adventure.
The days were spent taking in Benton and looking for the elusive skyrock petroglyphs.
Then it was on to Virginia Lakes where it was warm and I still had my short pants on.
