We had so much fun going to the caves the first time we decided to go again. This time we took the trail on the back side of the caves. It was more like a nice hike than cave exploring, but we liked that. (Is it really a hike if there is a boardwalk and stairs?)
The area was so green and pretty. Marlee did really well following the path. She was really excited when we found....
... stairs! Only Marlee loves it when there are stairs out in the middle of nowhere! Her Dad was so good to climb the stairs we her. :)
More pretty scenery
This little bit of graffiti reminded us of our soon to arrive cousin and nephew!
I couldn't believe that Sam crawled into this little cave! Who knows what was living in there! It didn't bother Sam, though, and Marlee thought it was funny.
Taking a break. Don't these two look cute together!
We couldn't leave without stopping by the largest and coolest cave! Marlee really wanted to jump into the water on either side of the walkway!
So cute! glad you are having fun and enjoying Iowa! I also love your header picture! Marlee looks so big and her hair is so long!
