We're going to print shirts that read "I hiked the Wind Caves at midnight...and survived"

We embarked on a crazy adventure last night. Equipped with flashlights, jackets, and my fear of the dark we commenced our hike to the wind caves at 11:30 p.m. We were only paralyzed a few times by animal encounters, one time being when Tyler and I found a bat in the cave. The stars were amazing and even though we couldn't really see our surroundings, it felt beautiful to be there in the dark. We shared lot of stories and laughs and sore feet. None of us brought water so everyone, expect for smart Tyler, drank from a flowing stream which we later found a real bone in. I'm happy to report we are all still alive...I think. There's something so exhilarating about laying under the stars, being there with my husband and other great company, and staying out until 3:30 in the morning.

Hahaha cute! I really think we should make t-shirts. That was awesome. I, too, for the record, didn't drink from the spring. I did drink from it in June though. haha. That was so fun. Thanks for coming!

That sounds like an exhilarating adventure. I hope you don't get whatever disease you get from bad water, a REAL bone?! Sick! :S You should've just shared with Tyler, that's what husbands are for...or so I'd imagine ;)
