Took 10:00 AM half day tour of Mammoth Cave – 4 mile walk – lots of up & down. Had lunch in snowball room – last half was strenuous & my knee hurt. Dave took the Historic Tour at 3:15 – another 2 miles. I took the Green River Boat Tour. Misty rain – not too exciting. Reminded me of House Boat on the Cumberland River about 1930 with the Shenemans.

In to Cave City for supper at Wendy’s & some groceries for breakfast. Read in room.
