Canyon trip

We go to Palo Duro Canyon several times a year. Usually it is just me and the kids. We went yesterday and had loads of fun. We went to a different part of the park than we usually do. And we found caves!
There were some other people out there too and we must thank them for showing us some of the caves and for escorting some of the kids through the first time. The one was very narrow in the opening and was very dark for a short period, that made it exciting!

Kyla did not go. She held the baby so Mom could come back with the other kids. Ellis did not go the first time but he did go on the return route with Mom. Mom did not let Wes go, he stayed with Kyla. Next time he'll go though. I hope we have some more nice weather soon so we can do some more exploring!
Here are some pics:
