ADVICE FROM A CAVE
Breathe deep.
Find beauty in unexpected places.
Search inward.
See the hole picture.
Good things take time.
Look beneath the surface.
Hang tight!

CAVE ADVENTURES
Cascade Cave – Outside Walkway – Waterfall
This was one of my most memorable cave experiences.
1. As part of the tour, we walked outside from one part of the cave to another part of the cave. It was lightly raining and felt like I was passing through a magical otherworldly rainforest. Awesome!
2. Our veteran tour guide asked the group if they would like an added adventure not part of the tour. Yikes! That was as close to spelunking (minus the crawling) that this terrain-challenged senior ever wants to experience again. First had to get down the cliff to the rocks below. OK, it was only a few feet but seemed like a cliff. Then there were all the challenges to negotiate. Others were oohing while I was watching my step. Finally we walked millimeters next to a pool of water over sandy substrate. One slip and into the water I would go. Depth unknown – and I don’t swim! Yep, that was my first and hopefully last experience with venturing off the beaten path.
