Mammoth Cave!

The Nelsons and Hermans teamed up to dominate Mammoth Caves National Park this weekend.

Bear was in hog heaven with Spencer and Lucas around. We happened to share the campground with 20 some boy scouts. It was kiddemonium.


On the tour bus to the cave entrance.


At the beginning of the tour we wound down an impossibly narrow and steep and random staircase down some crazy cave shaft. I was holding Willow and the rails were waist high. When I looked over the rails and down I could see the stairs switchbacking down back and forth for about a hundred feet. It looked fake and I could not believe that the federal government trusted people to walk through it.



Willow and Eli hit it off and got impossibly filthy together. Five minutes out of the car and she looked like a street urchin with dirt smeared face and snarled leaf-filled hair. It was great!
