What better way to spend a hot summer Saturday morning, than to go spelunking??? Yes, the three of us headed to the Meramec Caverns in Stanton, MO. This was a perfect way to spend a scorching hot day, since the cave is consistently at 60 degrees. We took an eighty minute guided tour through the caves. The Meramec Caverns was one of the hide-outs of Jesse James back in 1874 and is a very unique experience. The cave formations are really a sight to see, although the pictures below don't do it any justice.
There are many other activities close by...from camping, river boat ride, canoeing, and an area where children can "pan for gold". Maybe when the weather is a little cooler we will head back and participate in the other fun activities...except maybe the camping.
We certainly are having a fun summer exploring all the fun outings STL and the surrounding areas have to offer. Can't wait to find out what is next on our agenda!
