I know I've mentioned these past few days the rain has made it more difficult to go out but coming from Miami it is a nice break from the intense heat and humidity. For that same reason rain or not last weekend I drove to the mountain to breath the fresh cool air and enjoy the vast fields of green.
View up the mountain including potato plantations
I love the mountains because they always have dairy farms where you can buy home made sour cream, fresh milk, and cheese. You can also find potato and coffee plantations, and fields of flowers especially roses and carnations for export.
View of the city from the road
Back in the 1950's people believed that the weather up there was so beneficial they built a hospital especially for people who suffered from respiratory illnesses. Today, the hospital is abandoned and when I saw it I wished I had enough money to redevelop it and open a mountain hotel with a spa...

Another view from the road, notice the low clouds covering the mountains and cities
Hope you have a great Thursday in preparation for the weekend!!!
Beautiful! You should totally open a spa! I would totally go and I'm guessing it will be the best looking spa out there.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! That would be a wonderful place to re-develop. Oh the possibilities ... dream dream dream ... and remember they do come true!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful views.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sad thing with empty buildings. The original idea was so great. Healing in fresh air should be mandatory:)
ReplyDeletei immediately felt peaceful looking at that view.
ReplyDeletebut also sad to see such beauty laying to waste.
perhaps a free clinic could be opened there too?
Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteThanks for bringing us all along on your beautiful journey! It's like a free vacation! :)
ReplyDeleteit looks beautiful there and i love the big sky!
ReplyDeleteThose are stunning views:) Just magical:) Kisses and have a great Thursday:)
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful! I love the mountains...especially ones that look more country like this!
ReplyDeleteThat hospital really would make the perfect spa retreat. All it needs is some love, beautiful furnishings, and maybe a pool? And with all those views, I'm sure you'd be booked all the time.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.....smiles...
ReplyDeleteVery lovely pics! xoxo
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! If you opened a spa, at least you'd already know how to run the kitchen :)
