Kan's Toy Box #5

I know nothing about Kan's Toy Box 1-4, but this one was a bit of a challenge. (Aren't all toy boxes?)

Check out the photo. What you don't see is a mysterious, furry, fast, little creature that lives next to the "toy box' cache. It scampered away very fast as geo James climbed the little embankment to the hidden treasure.



This is one a few caches where the GPS coordinates were slightly off, and we were originally searching on the other side of the highway until we gave up.
(What kind of dedicated Geocacher GIVES UP?)

A little ways down the road after we found "A View On A Hill 2", geo hubby suggested we go back and look more. After pulling up the site on my geo map, I was able to make out the small bush-like trees on the map. We parked along beside them, and wa-la, we spotted a spot of blue in the stump!

What little animal lives in these holes?  Guarding the blue geocache?
We gave it lots of 'space".


We signed the log book and added some trinkets
to the cache. Which one would you like to trade?

Happy Hunting and Trading!

A View On A Hill 2

I pulled hubby out of bed early as it was a lovely day to be geocaching!  (May 5, 2011)

Although I made a treasure hunt list before we left, as usual, we only found part of the caches on my route for the day. Some we had already past. Some were too far away from decent parking. One, we simply couldn't find although we searched high and low.

This is one that hubby found before I even got out of the car.  The photos tell the story.





We like the containers that we can add something to.  We added my 'star', but the Spirit of Sheba coin wouldn't fit in this one.

Happy Smilies!
