June is a great time to have a birthday. It's not too hot yet, unless you live in Tennessee. Things are still blooming and pretty instead of turning brown and wilting from the heat. And you get presents every 6 months! Can't beat that :)
Here I am digging into my stack of presents.
Rob is learning that I have an unquenchable thirst for cheese. He bought me a HUGE block of smoked gouda from Sam's Club and I've been enjoying it immensely!
This is my stash this year!
The weekend after my birthday we took a ride up to Kentucky to the Lost River Caves. I thought we would be in the woods somewhere, but it's right in the middle of the city of Bowling Green.
They have a small butterfly reserve there with a few different varieties.

This was inside the cave. It really was too dark to get any kind of picture in there, but supposedly Jesse James hid out in this cave evading the authorities for quite some time until they found him, thought they had him trapped, and then realized too late he had escaped out a back entrance.
They have a hiking trail you can walk while waiting to go on the cave tour. Rob found this cool spot that he wants to use as inspiration in a story he's writing. Unfortunately while exploring his foot hit some moss and his rump and his knee paid the price on a huge boulder.
