Cumberland Falls is one that has a moon bow every full moon. It’s actually well worth seeing.
My wife and I are both devoted readers and read dozens of books every year. However, about 7 years ago I took a job that made me commute 50 miles a day.
I also love to listen to music, but the 30 minute to 1 plus hour drive each way was boring as hell. So I decided to look into audio books and the first one I listened to was “Leviathan Wakes” book 1 of “The Expanse.” I went from hating my commute every day, to actually slowing down and taking more time to consume more books.
I love audio books now and have listened to hundreds over the last several years. I still read books of course and my wife has not listened to audio books with any consistency, unless we are traveling. Audio books are excellent at keeping the kids entertained on those long trips to see family.
My wife and I often read the same books and series and we discuss them at length. I have not found any difference in my ability to understand and debate the material, whether I’ve read or listened to it. I do find it a bit easier to remember smaller details if I’ve read it, other than that there is little difference. At least for me.

Learned how to drive synchro’d transmissions on a 86 Ford Escort.
Learned how to double clutch and rev match on a non-synchro’d transmission in a 49 Willys.
Oh thank god. I was starting to think I was the only one.
Around the kids, when they were young, we used French for those things we didn’t want them to know about. She’s fluent and I don’t really speak it at all, but took it back in High School and remembered enough vocabulary to make it work.
Today, both our boys have taken years of Spanish and they speak in Spanish for those things that they don’t want us to know. LOL
Around other adults, my wife and I have a system of looks that we give each other. We can have an entire conversation just by giving each other looks.
