Mountains, caves and bears

After our canoe trip we drove up on Skyline drive. We took Mom with us while everyone else went home. We walked a mile up the mountain to get this picture.

This one is in the caves later. They are out of order but if I move them you can't click to make them bigger.

I love it up there. The views are amazing.

Walking up the mountain.

Daddy took pictures with everyone on this edge. Mommy tried to take the pictures while not looking at how scary it was. It did not work. I kept freaking out and telling them all to be careful, and not get so close, and hurry up, and get off that rock, and hold on. They all thought I was insane. I am terrified of heights. I stood far away to take these pictures.





Climbing up the mountain was not enough, they had to climb trees too.



We saw two bears. One is behind them someplace in this picture. They don't look very impressed, but they were. K wanted to take it home.

Here he is.


This day was one of my favorite parts of the whole trip. I love it up in those mountains. I also loved seeing it with mom and spending the day with her.

B missed the caves though. She was inside for maybe two minutes when she started getting sick. Daddy went out with her. She had some stomach virus and threw up all the way home. That was the worse part of the trip!!

Maybe tomorrow I will share the Las Vegas pictures. Check back soon!
