Labor Day Hike with Laings

We purchased tickets for the caves and were excited that the Laing family could join us!  It has been so fun having them here (they moved here from Clovis last November).  They were good sports about it - it is a hard hike!  At least it is paved, but very steep!  Kelly left me in the dust!  Not sure I will invite her again to go hiking with slow old ME.  ha!  David and her son Ben hit it off and hiked all the way down together.  The kids always do really well on these hikes.  Grandma has to stop a lot!  The kids asked our tour guide some very good questions!  I was impressed with them.  Wish I could remember some of the ones they asked.  Even after we came out of the caves they still had some questions for him. Our guide was fun, he had a wooden flute sort of instrument that he played for us in one of the rooms. It was pretty cool!  The kids liked it a lot.  Kelly's daughter Peyton was having a hard time about something right before we went into the cave and the guide got right down on her level and talked to her and in just a minute everything was right with the world!  I tried to take some pictures inside the cave but they didn't turn out too well. We really enjoyed our tour and it was a fun time spent with family and friends!
