A Sea of Grass Becomes a Sky of Rainbow!

This one came over the Internet airwaves before I was up and dressed this morning. I told myself it would be good motivation to get moving, and just maybe be First to Find (FTF)!

You know when there's no job to hurry off to.  No one tapping their feet waiting for you to get out of the bathroom. No breakfast rush. Just me and the cats enjoying the warm sunshine on the cool, shiny, hardwood floors. It's hard to get started on a productive day!

So, "find the new cache' was added to today's "to do" list and gave me some gumption for the day.

Later, as I ran errands and kept an eye on the forbidding, stormy-looking sky, I wondered if I should brave the storm coming in and find that cache. The new cache was hidden in a 'Sea of Grass" and the instructions were to wear long pants and be prepared to walk a little.

Here's a photo I shot as I dashed from the post office (where they never did start forwarding our mail to our new house) to the grocery store (where I discovered my coupons were in the other car!).  It shows the clouds and storm approaching Broomfield and Denver from what is known around here as, "The Front Range".



The "shower" in the distance is headed straight towards our house.

 On my scheduled stops was the hospital to visit the lady we bought the house from. After major surgery, and several more smaller ones, she is still in a  lot of pain and has a long recovery road ahead. I try to stop by and give her a back rub and her mail every day.

I decided to try and find the new cache on the way to the hospital. That would be way over to the right of the 'shower' photo.

After missing the road a couple times and going through the same 4-way intersection several times, I finally got to the point where the GPS showed I should get out and walk... (Pictured)



Yep, there's a lot of grass. A very desolate place with a 'cache" somewhere near!



Yep, move the small rock to find the small Tupperware container with a special FTF,

(Cache In - Trash Out) CITO trackable!  Yipppeee.  My first CITO trackable.

I think I'll give it to my sister when she's here to take back and hide in Florida!

Now to find my car!

And there it was...One of the biggest, most beautiful rainbows I've ever seen!



Back on the highway...The rainbow continued to show its colors!
This an awesomely, beautiful out-in-the-wilderness park.
It was close to the Sea of Grass cache.
Someday soon, I'm taking my husband and sister here to hide a new cache!

May you have many 'rainbow caches"

Take Care on the Journey,
