Kentucky to Florida



 We saw tobacco fields in Kentucky.
 Ranger Rick, Tour Leader, Mammoth Cave National Park.
 The longest cave system in the world at 400 miles.
 The most notable feature of the caves is the fact that one cannot enter the caves without buying a tour lead by a park ranger.
Some parts of the cave were huge and we would have to stop and listen to Ranger Rick. I liked the small parts of the cave the best.
 Danny got the other ranger's number.
 Eric and Danny and the bus driver.
 The trail behind our campsite in Mammoth Cave National Park.
 It was a fresh campsite, next to a ferry crossing.
 Then it started to rain and we found out that in the future we should test the things we assume to be waterproof before we actually deem them waterproof.
So we slept in the car. Shouts out to Danny for packing up the soaking wet campsite at the crack of dawn
Early in the morning we left for the fairer weathers of the retirement villages found only in...

A cabin in the woods to AC to Virginia

We left on our journey on Monday, October 19th. Our first stop was the Licker's cabin in the woods. The cabin is a very quaint, two story, two room building sitting peacefully in the woods of Prattsville, NY. There is no running water and you have to crank your shit around at least 8 times. Now in order to successfully complete this trip, our minds need to be in the right place and on the same page. So naturally we stayed at the cabin for two days doing some deep breathing exercises. Here are some pictures of the cabin.

In between breaths we shot stuff

After sitting inside the cabin while the cold rain came down for two days, we decided to make a ROUTE CHANGE! Seeing as how we all grew up in the north east and are familiar with most the area, we decided to pull a 180 and head south. We drove to Atlantic City where we stayed at Danny's nannas apartment. The tables however, weren't smokin' hot like they usually are and we left the next day and headed to Virginia where we now reside at Danny's aunts. The plan? THE ZOO!
