March 3, 2001 Mammoth Caves was the first stop on our way to Florida. Bessie was anxious to get to the warmth of the south and wasn't pleased to be stopping for two hours in Kentucky. We weren't able to convince her to go on the actual cave tour with us (she's ashamed to admit it, but Bessie is afraid of the dark), but we did coax her out of the car for a couple pictures before we left. The first one, on the left is the sign in front of the main visitors center. The picture on the right is looking out into the forest near one of the cave entrances.
