They went to Jewel Cave and did the lantern walk. They were each given a lantern and hiked through the cave. They said they felt like they were discovering it for the first time. They had to hike down ladders, crawl under low ceilings and so forth. They gave this activity a 10. Later in the afternoon they also went through Wind Cave.
The other week I was without my camera and this past week I was without the computer. So, now I am ready to do some posting.
Russ took Kassade and Keyton on a family trip to Mt. Rushmore. I don't think they were too sure what all was in store for them. "You never know about dad" they say and as teens they do question his abilities.
Their first stop was at Concordia, KS. This wall is built out of bricks.
The ever so famous Wall Drug Store. I told Russ he needed to stop there with the kids. He kept asking me why - I said it was hard to explain. - Free Ice Water - I think they had a lot fun, at least that is what the following pictures show.
The dinosaur eats ever 10 minutes - Keyton was getting ready to feed Kass to him.
The Flintstone slide.
Even though this picture is out of focus - they informed me it was very important to keep it since it took many many times to get them all in it.
The video posted before was a radio station the kids found while Russ was checking into the hotel.
Day 2 - The one thing Kassade wanted to do was go horseback ridding. This is them up at 6 AM. Russ found this ride where part way through you stop and have breakfast out in the woods over a campfire.
Kassade and her horse
Kassade was trying to get a picture with all three of them
French toast, hash browns and more for breakfast
Throwing rocks at each other - how OLD are they?
If you look closely you can see the rock caught in Keyton's arm.
Some things never change no matter how old they are.
They took a short hike before going to Jewel Cave.
We are now going to play a game - "Where's Kassade?" she looked like she was having fun taking these since there was about 10 of them.
Keyton pondering??
