I've had such a great day today. Sooo much fun!
Syn and I went Geocaching for the entire afternoon. Until the sun went down, literally. The first thing we had to do was to check on our cache. Unfortunately, someone (or something) swiped it! It was no longer in it's hiding place. We replaced it and met a wonderful furry friend. We're assuming she belongs to one of the houses near our cache, but she didn't have a collar and was just wandering around. Just the sweetest puppy you could ever hope to meet. She followed us around the whole time we were out there and just wanted to be petted and have her belly scratched.
After dealing with our cache, we went hunting... we haven't really been able to go geocaching all winter because of the cold and the snow. But it warmed up beautifully this weekend and we were both just itching to get out. We were near the Caddie Woodlawn cache so we decided to go for that one. It was a multi-cache which is something we hadn't done before. It was tons of fun though. And it made me want to re-read a book I haven't read since I was little.
I remember going to the Caddie Woodlawn house when I was little (maybe 10?) with my parents and brother. I remember thinking it was very cool. It was wonderful to find out that it's still cool!
We had just a little bit of daylight left so we decided to try for just one more. But that one was at the end of a road that's closed until May 1st. Technically we could have abandoned the car and walked up, but it was getting late so we decided to just head home and tackle that one another day.
It's dark out now, but we found a couple on the site that look findable at night. So we're going to head off to try and find one (or both!) of those.
This weather is wonderful!
