I loved walking the trails when Mark and I would go camping. There was just something so invigorating about the cool spring mornings when the dew drops glistened all around me in the warm morning sunlight. The day Iβm remembering started off like any other. The two of us had gotten up and fixed our breakfast over the campfire, taken a quick swim in the lake, and started off on our daily walk. We both enjoyed exploring a few feet into the small caves along the park trails. Little had I known that one of those caves would become the setting for one of my most cherished memories.
It was shortly after noon when I noticed the tiny rain drops on my arms. Mark noticed too and asked if we should head back to camp. We both agreed to keep on walking. I had already planned on making this walk one to remember and wasnβt going to let a few rain drops ruin my idea. A few minutes later, the rain turned from a few sprinkles to a heavy downpour. Mark and I ran about a quarter mile before we came across a cave opening big enough for the two of us. We climbed inside and found that the inside of the cave was almost the size of a large living room. We sat next to each other and watched the rain pour down outside.
