Not afraid of Monsters

I took my kids to Lava River Cave in Sunriver when we were on vacation. It's pretty amazing. We hiked the whole mile under ground. We had a great time. Even my three-year-old went on the hike, and she did great.

She called it a "Mama Cave" because, you know, babies are small and Mamas are bigger, and it was a Mama cave, not a baby cave.

Also, she kept telling me there were monsters in the cave, and finally I said, I don't see any monsters. She said, "That's because the bats ate them all."

Ha ha ha!

A touching moment of love... and murder

Krista and I went hiking up near Sunriver last week. It was the Three Creeks trail, headed up to the Green Lakes. It was a spectacular hike... I'm sure Krista will put up more pictures later this week.

Here's a moment early in the hike.

Krista (with her camera): Take another step backward.

Me (looking at the drop to the river below): Is this the part where you try to murder your husband?

Krista: (Silence.)

Me: Just remember, I have the car keys.

Krista: I have car keys, too.
