Lehman Caves

Last Sunday my family all got together to go through Lehman Caves in Nevada. Fun!

Our tour was scheduled for 9:30...anyone see a problem with that?
1-It's a 3 hour drive to get there
2-It's an AM tour that you cannot be late for
3-It's MY family (it's not like I picked up my late habit all on my lonesome people)

I was a little worried- truth be told, I think that my parents were too. However, WE ARE AMAZING!!!
I feel like it should be documented somewhere for posterity folks....
(if you're standing you may want to sit for this...)


THE ENTIRE STOCK CLAN WAS NOT ONLY ON TIME TO SOMETHING BUT WE WERE EARLY!!!!

I know, I know- I have just shattered your reality, but stay with me folks... I have pics to show:



Almost the entire Stock clan (sans Dawney-I was taking the picture, Parker- he was sick- poor little guy, Gary- who was sitting with Parker in the car (good Dad!),-and Cooper- who made fuss in the cave so we left him there... ha ha ha)



The Mountain that covers the Cave



Listening to our guide (Scott) tell us about Lehman Caves



Parker at the entrance



Steps in the Music room (pretty tall). At first I thought it was called this because it looks like the pipes of an organ- but they actually used to hit the different formations with a hammer and they made musical notes! As you can imagine, it damaged some of the formations over the years so they no longer do that.



Maddie- gotta love those eyes!



more from The Music room


I liked this little heart along the way



The Gothic Cathedral room



Kim and Hunter on some steps leading into the Lodge room



Soda straws (hollow)


While we were listening to Scott tell us more about he cave, Hunter stood right under a drip



This is the hallway leading up from the Lodge room to the great outdoors

Shane and Nan looking like they are trying to figure something out..



Richard couldn't wait for lunch to be set up so he snagged a bag of chips- yes we all saw you! ;0)
