Calvary Chapel Bible College! Woman's Retreat!

So on the 11-13 I went to Calvary Chapel bible College for a retreat with some of the women from our Church. This was my Second time and I really enjoyed it. They have Several hot springs on the grounds and I had said that I was going to get in this time! But it was just to cold out to brave the weather in a swim suit!
