The ride at the back of the van wasn't the best for me and Eben, but once we got there it was all worth it. The kids were all such great explorers in that cold, dark cave. It's truly amazing how Mt. St. Helen's has recovered and grown back since the eruption - which I remember and doesn't seem like it was that long ago.

HELENS, WA". However, I wouldn’t <br />worry too much about seeing bigfoot in the Ape Caves – <br />common lore attributes the name to a scout troop who explored <br />the caves back in the early 50’s. Apparently the troop’s <br />sponsor was the St. Helens Apes – a group of foresters. <br />Foresters and loggers in those days were sometimes referred to as “Brush <br />Apes”. Perhaps this is the origin of the name though those that have claimed to <br />have seen bigfoot in the area believe the caves would have been a perfect habitat <br />for the reclusive creatures." Oooohhhhh...that's why. jeremy nevilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11473273410059662731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7193938325164925824.post-91896476649124663172012-10-14T12:51:03.954-07:002012-10-14T12:51:03.954-07:00And you've finally "caved" (badum-bu...And you've finally "caved" (badum-bum) to a baby carrier!
