This past weekend we got to take the girls on another first experience for them, caving, spelunking. Now they'd been in two other caves, both of them were 'commercial' ventures. #1 - was the Lost Sea, which is America's Largest Underground Lake and the 2nd was Ruby Falls, a cave that has a beautiful water falls in it. This was the first time we actually got to explore a cave on our own.
On the campus of Southern, they have a cave that is rich with history dating all the way back to the Civil War...
...in fact, it's right through that little 2 ft by 2 ft hole behind us as we prepare to go in.
Doreen, Joelle & Natalie in a hole in the ground once we went through the hole!
In one of the little side rooms along the main hall of the cave, Joelle & Natalie found this odd shaped stalagmite.
Doreen's crawling through one of the tighter sections
of the cave.
Joelle & Natalie where the floor meets the roof. Not a lot of room there.
The Pesters four enjoying some good family time in a nice cool cave on a hot Tennessee afternoon.

It was a blast though!
