Cascade Springs.

In an attempt to cool off, we headed up to the mountains early Sunday morning.  I was starting to not feel well but Mommy made me go anyway.  It was a nice drive all the way until we stopped at Sundance Resort for lunch.  Sundance is now on my same list as Snider Bros. meats!  Meaning the list of places I refuse to do business with!  45 minutes of waiting for 3 sandwiches that totaled $30 was absurd!  Add the dirty conditions with biting flies and you got Sundance!  Shame on you Bobby Redford.
