Guess what's hanging around under Virginia? Christina Talcott | Sunday, March 23, 2008 at 12:30 am Deep in the belly of the cave, my headlamp barely lighting the rock walls, I crawled on my hands and knees toward the stranger I'd gone underground with, the only one there with a map and a clue. I don't normally court danger with men I find on the Internet. But this was different. I'd decided to try caving, and the only way I knew how was by hiring a guide who'd take me and my friend Jay into the bowels of the earth for a morning. Luckily, the guide I'd found was Lester Zook, an outdoor-ed teacher at Eastern Mennonite University in Harrisonburg, Va. savannahnow.com/node/467454Gee - it only costs $100 for two people to go caving!

On the other hand, if you get paid $12.50/hr in 4 hours (half a day) you've made as much money as the trip costs per person. Granted, cave guides usually make minimum wage, but this trip doesn't seem that expensive, cast in those terms.
