Story

We had some extra time after visiting Montezuma Cave, so we drove down to Pipe Spring National Monument. The kids all got their junior ranger books then we cruised up to the fort for the tour. After touring the fort, we walked around the grounds and outbuildings. Cooper had to use the bathroom and tried to break into the old outhouse to do his duty, but it was locked, and then it was too late. We worked on the junior ranger booklets, Tara and Madi hiked the Ridge Trail, we watched the park film, and we toured the museum. Then the kids got sworn in and received their badges, and we headed out. It was fun and chill.
