nearly hiking ourselves to death

Last weekend Kelly and I met up with some friends of the OIP (Office of International Programs) and went on a Mammoth Cave adventure.



WE were planning on a nice, cool 57 degree, leisurely 1/2 mile cave tour. Everyone else had a bit more adventure in mind. We ended up hiking 5 miles or more in the blazing heat. We crossed creeks, dodged horse poo, and prayed for the end of the trail to be around every corner.


She seemed to be fine afterwards, but I could hardly walk.




Then we celebrated our return to civilization with some hearty Cracker Barrel followed by Blizzards. (ps- this is the face I make when I have to wait for hashbrown casserole.)
