Journaling: I’ve always wanted to take the boys hiking in the White Mts., but between work schedules, summer camps and busy fall weekends, we’ve never managed to get there. Recently I came across a half price deal to explore the Lost River Gorge and Caves, and I knew that it would be a must do trip ... and with AJ leaving for college, there was no time like the present. We set off at about 9:00am and arrived just after noon, with a stop for lunch along the way. The weather could not have been better, and the views were amazing!  


 

We descended into the gorge down a huge flight of stairs, and came upon a series of caves alongside the boardwalk. We crawled and slithered through them, sometimes lying flat on our bellies to squeeze through the small openings. What a crazy fun time... although I will admit that there were a couple of caves that AJ and I were wise enough to avoid, lest we find ourselves in a “Winnie the Pooh” situation LOL.  Noah took a ton of pics, even inside the caves. So cool! 

 

The path up out of the gorge led us to a newly constructed suspension bridge with great views of the mountains in the distance. Not ready to leave just yet, we also hiked along an ecology trail through the woods. All in all, we had a fantastic day, one that I’m so glad we were finally able to find time to enjoy together!
