Sonora Caverns, Texas



We arrived Tuesday afternoon, set up camp, checked out the rock shop and waited for our tour guide. We are getting ready to head down into the Sonora Caverns. Our guide tells us we are going to descend over a 155 feet into the earth. The climate in the caverns stays a constant 70 degrees with 90% humidity. It will be a nice relief from the hot Texas heat. Need a good pair of shoes, light clothes and and no claustrophobia.


How's this for great formations?
























Here are Chloe and Ayanna standing next to the "popcorn" formations. No, not the edible form.











All in all, it was a great day. That evening the stars were amazingly bright and filled the sky.

The Great Adventures-Ayanna and Choloe


Ready, Start----Go! Loaded up the RV with great food, books and plenty of summer projects. We are headed for a six week tour of eight National Parks--Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Tetons, Yellowstone, Rocky Mountain and Carlsbad Caverns. Pops and Grammy will be our tour guides, camp cooks, and overall support team. Our parent's were sad to see us go but I am sure they will survive without us around the house (Ha, Ha).
Our first day will be a short drive north of about 150 miles to Sonora Caverns. Stay tuned for great pics and our travel log.
