Lava Tubes

Cute baby!

Big fat heavy baby on my back!
Inside the tube!

We live near dormant volcanos and so we have some really neat geological features near us. One is a lava flow tube. This is the coolest place!!! You hike down about 100 feet into this lava flow cave. The cave is a 3/4 mile long. The whole time you are walking through a tube of solidified lava. It is really cool! It had been monsooning a few days before so there was a HUGE puddle so Jake couldn't resist using our 4 wheel drive.
