Peebles Island - GeoCaching

It was a cold Saturday - but we ventured out anyway. NO MORE RAIN DATES -OK folks? We had enough of those last year. No flu either - OK? Here is Mr. "W" at our first find of the day. Took a bit of digging around - the GPS's were bouncing all over the place because of the cloud cover - but we got the job done!
The kids learned quick - those that were first timers - that many cache's only have a log. Not TERRIBLY exciting. THEN we found the ammo can. Full of good stuff to trade with. Good thing Mrs. M brought along some goodies to leave behind to replace the stash taken by the group!

And - we had a nice turnout didn't we? The weather turned a bit sunnier and was nice. AND - thanks to everyone, we didn't lose anyone over the cliffs. Even Coach "T" from school tagged along to see what this geo-caching is all about? So - will she venture out with Thrills & Skills again? We'll just have to see!

A few of us trekked on to find a 3rd cache of the day. This one was not too hard to find. Getting it out was another chore.............. um, Miss "I" what ARE you doing to that tree?

Miss "T" found out - all ya had to do was dig UNDER the kids thru the BOTTOM of the tree! NICE FIND - her first......
