Cave of the Mounds
We recently took a day trip to Cave of the Mounds. We have been wanting to go for awhile but life is always so crazy. One of my girls had already gone there for a school field trip so she had been pushing for the trip.Cave of the Mounds is an hour away from our house so the trip was an easy one. The cave is amazing. The tour lasts an hour and ends in the gift shop. Of course James could not pass up buying things for the girls. He spoils them rotten!
Along with other neat purchases the girls each got a bag of sand with treasures inside. They got to bring them over to a panning area and sift through their sand to see what they got. They loved that part.
So $50 later, we headed off on a trail above ground. During the tour we were told about two sink holes that were developing on the land. James, of course, just had to see them. One of them was still stable enough to walk over. The other was all roped off and collapsing.The part of the hike that the girls liked most was walking through the flower gardens. The grounds are absolutely beautiful.

that sounds like an awesome place to go and your pics are great.
It sounds like you guys had a great time!
Thanks to your comment our family was able to visit the Cave of the Mounds too. It really is something to see for youself. Pictures, no matter how well taken, don't do it justice at all.
Wish we would have taken a bit more time to walk the trails and see the sinkhole.
