NiBo had a rare Saturday off, so of course we had to plan an adventure! We decided to go check out Meramec Caverns in Missouri. I've seen the signs a million times (since there are like a million) on my way to St. Louis. As always it was a wonderful sibling adventure road trip.
The most important discovery on this road trip was the fact that Cadbury eggs exist outside of Easter! The Cadbury Screme egg made it's appearance after a gas station pit stop for an Energy drink. They taste just like their Easter counterpart but have a spooky green center instead of the Easter yellow. It amazes me that I did not know these existed.
I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. It was a beautiful fall day and the road lined with pretty fall colored trees on the drive towards the entrance were beautiful! It's pretty amazing to think about how this placed looked before people discovered it and added concrete walkways and handrails and what it looked like when Jesse used it as a hideout. I don't imagine the neon sign was up then, kind of defeats the purpose of a hideout I suppose.
The lighting makes everything look so different though it's pretty even without the color lights shining.
The American Flag light was a gift from a past MO governor after he visited.
Our standard, we were here pics.
See! Wasn't it a picturesque Fall day?
Hope you had a lovely fall weekend and got to get out and enjoy the outdoors. Next weekend is a busy one here at North of 10th, Navy at Notre Dame on Saturday, and Wicked in Chicago Sunday! I'm going to be one pooped pup!
