Tennessee: Caving with Uncle Laurel

We visited my uncle Laurel and Aunt Wendy in Tennessee for vacation where they just moved from Chicago last year. Their home is nestled among the hills of Tennessee souteast of Nashville. One of the highlights of our visit was exploring two of the caves on their property.
