Howe Caverns

Howe Caverns is a great place to visit.  It is located in central New York.  Here is the LINK.   i have been there a couple of times.  This photo is from our visit in 2002, when my college kids were in elementary school.  I used a circle stencil with some lavender paint.  Then I inked my page suing stamps.  I added a few cardboard buttons, some gems, and a key.  I made a title with a flowery ticket.  The photo of my son was from the back as he is looking into the cave.
