That sounds like fun! I wish I lived down there, if so I'd join in!

hitch a ride... I bet you could find some Ohioans to tag along with!

I finally got into contact with DUG but then I found MIL and went with them then found out they don't really do much traveling/caving anymore (I'm a youngun' compaired to most members) and so I tried to get back in contact with DUG not having much luck. Will keep trying. It's quite a drive down there, I'm up here in the fridgid north! May wait until next year if this is annual - looking at moving down towards Atlanta next year (some family lives there, I have friends there and met other grotto peeps when I was down thataway a few weeks back don't ask which I don't remember haha, and budding biotech central so I should be able to get a job...OH and no snow. And it's pretty and there are caves and things to do. Michigan is...boring, no biotech jobs, and I hate the Nov-March winters >_<. And you can blame the grotto peeps down there for this idea - they were the ones telling me how awesome it is down there! )

Yep. Been going on for 33 years now. I dont seem them stopping anytime soon.

Things have changed, I might actually make it!!!

So uh, question for the photo salon as I live up here in the north :P but do the photos have to be taken in TAG caves or is any cave ok?

The photos can be from ANY cave, ANY location...!

WOO!
