I'll make this story brief--we led a beginner's trip to Whirlpool and Maple Run one weekend last fall. Andrea (the woman in the video) came along because her friend Emily (who's continued to be a caver, and really loves it) asked her to do it. Andrea wrote a column for the Dallas Observer (the local weekly arts paper) that focused on her trying out new activities, so she was willing to try caving but wasn't convinced she'd like it. I didn't find out that she was a newspaper columnist until we'd reached Waco, and by that time it was too late to pull the truck over to the side of the road and ask her to walk home. :) Lest you think that Andrea is a wimpy person, she told us that of all the activities she'd researched for her column, skydiving and standup comedy were her favorites. She has continued to perform standup (she moved to Austin this spring), which in my mind is much more terrifying than trying to get through the entrance squeeze in Maple Run.
