In their early years, kids always want to do whatever mom (and/or dad) do. Cyprus Hotels: I imagine it’s merely a matter of what one is accustomed to!

I'm intrigued by the other hikes you mentioned (already thinking ahead to "next time"). I think it's important to venture a couple of steps beyond your "comfort zone" on occasion, or you start missing the good stuff (and don't even realize it)! Leonard,

For 4 of us, it was the second time. My wife had never been down before. One of us had a touch of hypothermia after swimming the first pool. Another hit the wall at the bottom of the climb out. We lost our rope in the deepest pool and had to rely on the kindness of strangers for two rappels. But, in spite of all, it was magnificent. We've been in the Buckskin, Spooky Gulch and Peekaboo, which I guess are a little different but, the Subway really is a wonderful, hard adventure. 5 of us, all in our mid to late 60′s, very late in my case, did the Subway on July 22nd.

I'm with you on that safety stuff. Drove me nuts at times. Probably always will... The irony was remarkable ("My balance is suspect, so BE CAREFUL!"). My coping method was to point out the appropriate (maiming/fatality) news stories and statistics. Followed by some extreme and personal deep breathing (think Lamaze plus Steroids)... We had a ton of fun. So, I guess it worked...?! Delmer,

The two of you LOVE the outdoors and would feel right at home on the trails of Zion, Bryce, Escalante, Capitol Reef... I promise! I really enjoy her photos of your Michigan life and know that she'd find some amazing stuff to share with us all just (slightly) to the west. Regards... Heather (What do you think JJ?) Dear Jeff,
