There are a lot more people here at Bear Cave than were at Horseshoe lake. The activity center here is quite large and has a few more things to do. The view out the back is just lovely and if you step out the back door you can here the waterfall that is on the property (hopefully pictures will be coming soon). The have a pingpong table, pool table, game/puzzle room, toy room for small kids, arcade room, plus lots of tables and chairs. We played pingpong quite a few times. We can rent pingpong paddles for free, we just have to leave a $1 deposit. The kids are really enjoying their time here. Randy is able to get in plenty of work and the kids plenty of play. We have been able to get the Olympics in pretty clear-- Randy bought a special "thing" that allows us to use an antenna and plug it into the computer or laptop and watch tv. It isn't as good as watching it with cable or dish but it will do. The boys have even gotten in a few epsiodes of their Saturday morning cartoons.
There has also been a little more excitement (if you read Reianna's blog you already know what I am going to talk about). We have had a few bats visit us. It was dusk and Jazz noticed something flying near us that didn't look like a bird. Lucky for us it came back. We all managed to get a closer look and it was a bat. Randy showed us something that he used to do when he was younger. You take a white sock (not sure if white is necessary), put in some rocks and throw the sock into the air. The bats will fly toward it thinking it is food. I don't know if everyone knows this, but I sure didn't. I can't even remember if I have ever seen a bat "in person" before. It was fun for everyone. The bats have come back for the past three nights to visit us. We have all had a great time at Bear Cave. We are leaving soon and heading to Ohio. Well, are off to "do something fun" as the kids call it. We might get in a rousing game of pickle ball.
I will post again later. Take care.
