There are a lot of rooms here so they can’t watch everyone all the time. Apparently not everyone is respectful of the site. Here’s the batman symbol. Nearby was a room with “Bat Cave” as graffiti. I feel sorry for the rangers as they try to keep up with graffiti like this.
It’s interesting how stalagmites, stalactites, soda straws, and ribbons have formed within the fort. Click on the picture to see this better. I guess this is from the lime from the mortar. The fort was built starting in 1829. I’m not sure how long it takes to grow these formations.
The
arches are gorgeous.
We
explored a battery near the fort. It was
fun climbing to the top and hiding in rooms.
At one point John boosted me up to see what was behind a large steel
door. After struggling to see into this
area, I had to laugh. It said “Yanke go
home”!
BTW, Debby is passing us by.
