Just a few more details about our little trip.
Here is my BFF Poppet. Now that is a comfortable cat. Capri Deb and I were considering sneaking her home in our suitcase. But Schmenky would be SO sad. So we left her.
Say ”Lou-Ray”. The Gals decided that, since I had never been, I needed to go. I happened to be on the phone with Honey when we made this decision, and told him I was going spelunking. He laughed and said he did not see me and spelunking together. Well, we were!
Capri Patt is covering the poison ivy on her face. Those “pustules” were a never ending source of amusement all weekend. She always has poison ivy. Just not usually that much, and not usually on her face.
Capri Deb, Capri Patt, Capri Lis and Capri Kel in the “bowels of the earth”.
Evidently, this is the first thing the discoverers saw when they slid down into the cave. With their candle in the 1800’s. It has a name, but I have forgotten. It was last week.
They tell you not to TOUCH anything down there. Cause evidently our fingertips are POISON to the caves. I did get talked to twice by Schmenky. Cause I touched. I actually just tapped my fingernails. Because the whole thing looked totally fake, like Disney World! I had to make sure it was real rock. It was. And I did use my nail. Not my poison finger tip.
Another sweet shot of Paddy in his Mama’s hands.
And that wraps up the trip. Mucho thanks to Schmenky and Mr. C for having us!! See you again in ‘09!

Yeah, your fingernail. ‘Cause that’s WAY less poisonous than your fingertip. Now, K…what if EVERY person that went down in the cave drummed their fingernail on it? There’d be nothing left, would there? (Insert motherly look of displeasure). In Luray Spelunking we keep our hands to ourselves. And have FAITH that they’re real.

When you said you were spelunking I pictured you all crawling through the mud on your bellies wearing miner’s hats with those big headlights on them! LOL! Then I saw the pictures — to say I was disappointed would be an understatement!
Glad you had fun though!

I was going to comment on the cool pillow case that the cat was laying on, then I realized it was your leg, lol. Glad you had a good time. BTW, cool pj bottoms.
