My mom has been sitting at the table reading about the Caverns. She told me all about the bats and how amazing it is to be there when they fly out of the cave. When we are free to travel we are going to go. I bought her the parks magazine to help with her day dreams until then.
Sincerely,
Carlsbad Caverns National Park
Deep beneath the Chihuahuan Desert in southern New Mexico is a labyrinth of more than 300 limestone caves, carved over 250 million years ago.
