Bluegrass Underground

Once a month the Cumberland Caverns in McMinnville, TN host a concert called Bluegrass Underground. Nathan found cheap tickets on groupon so we went this past weekend!

At the entrance of the cave

This is the first room you walk into. There is a small pond in there. They said that the water is constantly there and has always been the same level. Isn't it nifty that they put lights up around the cave so we can see everything without headlamps? If you go on a full cave tour they do require headlamps because they just have lights that lead to the ballroom where the concert takes place.


This is a small waterfall in the cave.


This is the ballroom where the concert takes place. You can also rent it out for a wedding or party. They even had bathrooms and concessions in the cave.

Each concert there are two bands that play. Spirit Family Reunion was our favorite band of the day. They sounded like a cross of the Avett Brothers and Old Crow Medicine Show. We both really enjoyed the cave and the music!

Warrior Dash

On September 17, along with some friends, we did the Warrior Dash. It is a 3 mile race that includes 12 obstacles. We hopped over hay bales, ran over cars, climbed walls, jumped through fire, swam a mud pit, and much more! We highly suggest this race for anyone. :)

Brannie & I made some matching tee shirts.

The starting line

My (carrie) personal favorite, the mud pit!
