Chattanoogie

This past Memorial Day weekend we went down to Chattanooga,TN. On the way there we stopped at a fun place called Ruby Falls. We took an elevator down a ways into the ground and then walked for a while underground to get to a really tall underground waterfall.

It was really neat to see all the different formations, the one in the picture above is called the chandelier.
They had little lights hidden in the rocks throughout the whole cave to help us see where we were walking and to highlight certain formations, then when we got to the waterfall they had a light show. It was amazing to be underground and see this huge waterfall coming from, what looked like, out of nowhere.

Wildlife Wednesday



The other day we looked out our bedroom window and saw these deer walking across our backyard. At first they didn't notice us and we watched them wonder around for a while. Then I decided to go downstairs and grab the camera to take some pictures, as soon as I stepped in front of the window they spotted me and ran away. Talk about good senses!
