BRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!

This weekend was a lot of fun. I went to the Ice Caves with a few of the girls from the apartment upstairs and one of my roommates, and a bunch of other random people. It was a lot of fun. We drove out there, parked on the side of the road, and then loaded up on four-wheelers and in the back of a truck with bench type things in it and went out to the caves. There were WAY too many of us squished into that truck....only to realize after we started going that the whole back seat of the cab was empty. Yeah we are smart I know! :) It was a long bumpy ride....but it was fun. When we got to the caves we realized we forgot flashlights (well....we being the girls I went with and I lol) So, we had to rely on everyone elses lights. But it was ok. The caves were pretty cool! I'd never been to them before. There were a few parts that got really small and really freaked me out...but I made it through! And....as I was going INTO the caves....I was seriously wondering at a few points how we were going to get OUT of there....because it was all ice going downhill and you just slid down a few parts. But, obviously we made it out also! They were really cool.

If I ever go again....a few things I learned would be....

1. Wear waterproof pants....all of our pants were SOAKED by the time we got out....which made us pretty cold! Or...just bring an extra pair. But sitting in soaked jeans in the cold isn't all that wonderful.

2. Wear gloves...also waterproof.

3. Bring a flashlight. Actually a headlamp.

4. Hmmm...I know there was more. I just don't remember right now.

Oh, and I'm really sad....My camera decided it was going to be RETARDED and not work IN the cave...So, I only have a picture of us before and with us all piled in the truck. I tried to take some in the cave but it just kept saying Lens Error....and of course when I got out of the cave and into some actual light it started working again. I was SOOO mad. Anyway. It was way fun. I have some really bruised up knees from crawling around in there. I wasn't too excited about laying on my back and pushing my way through....It made me feel way more claustrophobic. But yeah. It was fun!!!

Also....I went with the girls to IF (aka idaho falls) and went shopping today. I spent money I did NOT have. But oh well. Who needs groceries when You have a cute new black dress....and red flats to match, and cute tights? At least I'll be skinny in the dress since I won't have food! ;)
