Office life, small spaces, traffic, noise pollutions, commuting and hectic schedules all conspire to turn ordinary human beings into stressed out, time-stared, nervous wrecks. Fortunately there is another way!
The Columbia Valley, with it’s natural mineral hot springs, weather, lakes, beaches, ski hills, scenery, golf courses and peaceful ambiance, represents a no-side effects cure for what ails city dwellers. It provides unhurried asylum for the stressed, the over worked, and the anxious – all in one valley.
Recharge your depleted batteries….Save your tortured souls.
We are the peaceful garden that is humanity’s birthright. http://youtu.be/O5uOtHp4viw
