Day 14-18 of 31 Days of Geocaching In August

Day 14 – Break From Liver (GCZNAN).  Found with Bugabo and my Bride.

Day 15 – Buffalo Tree  (GC3Y4EZ) and Shore Thing (GC2W7PY)  Found these with my Bride, keeping the streak alive.  With a Shore Thing we were worried it wasn’t the correct cache since I couldn’t open it. So we took it home opened it with pliers. Took out the wet soaked log. Sprayed it with WD 40. Dried everything. Put in a new log. And then went back and put it where we found it. Hopefully it will open for the next person without having to get pliers and hopefully it doesn’t leak and soak the log.

Day 16 – Riley’s EXTREME STEALTH Cache (GC2502H).  Bugabo had attempted this one earlier in the week but didn’t know what she was looking for.  So, I went back with her and we found the cache.

Day 17 – Posted (GC1ART5) was found with Bugabo, her older sister and friend after spending a day at Kings Dominion.  It was a late night (11:30pm) find.

Day 18 – Fitness Trail #2 (GC36CEF) found with my Bride.  I looked were I thought it was, but did not see it.  Then I was ready to start digging and spotted it.  I just didn’t look close enough.

Day 13 of 31 Days of Geocaching

Today we stayed close to home.  Tried to find GC2568A “Riley’s (not so) Spooky Cache” and my Bride and I could not find it.  We looked around the stairs and off to both sides of the stair.  It hasn’t been found in awhile, so not sure if it still there.  We then went down the road to GC29JXK “The Wally Cache”.  It took a couple of minutes because I was looking up in trees and then realized that the rock that was described in the logs was under the bus shelter.

Went back to Burke Lake and found GC7462 “On the (not so) beaten track” with my Bride and Bugabo.

I then went and actually found two more caches but did not log them in.  They are going to be my “safe” caches in case I need something quick so I can complete the 31 Days of Geocaching.

Day 11 of 31 Days of Geocaching

Today my Bride and Bugabo went to Burke Lake and I found “Burke Lake GeoCourse – Good Night Tree 2”  My streak continues.

Day 10 of 31 days of Geocaching

Day 10 of 31 days of Geocaching.  With the finds in Myrtle Beach and no the 31 days of Geocaching challenge for the month of August I am now on a streak with 14 consecutive days with finds.  Today started out with two DNFs.  The Horsepen Hidey Hole and The Climb.  Look all around at both those locations with no luck.  We (my Bride and I) then went to another cache GC2RGM* “The King of Burgers” and found that with ease.

After finding The King of Burgers we then went to the Burger King and ordered an Oreo Shake.  We then walked from the Burger King (with our shakes) to GC33MD1 “A whole ‘nother year”.  This was a good find.

Day 9 of 31 Days of Geocaching

My Bride and I found Riley’s Stumped.  I should learn to remember to reread the titles of caches.  It just might make life easier.

 

Bugabo went out with trexM8s to cache. (I stayed home to update my blog).

I also had our oldest work on some puzzles.  One was math which she is very good at.

Day 8 of 31 Days of Geocaching

Day 8 Bugabo and I went and find a nice little nano cache stuck to the bottom of a gate.  Then I was off to Roundtable.

Day 7 of our 31 Day Challange

Day 7 Bugabo and myself looked for one cache to prepare ourselves for a busy day for tomorrow and then went on and found Fitness Trail Bonus.

Day 6 of the 31 Day Challange

Day 6 Bugabo, her friend and my Bride found the Fitness Trail.

Day 5 of the 31 Day Challenge

Day 5 I thought might be a challenge to be able to continue the streak.  Back to work today and then my Bride and I were scheduled to give blood at our church.  The Red Cross was behind so we were sent away.  Before giving blood we found Pets have their own area!.  This is in downtown Springfield.  A nice quick cache.

Since I didn’t give blood I caught up with Bugabo and trexM8s and we did two more caches.

Scrumpy Jack, which Bugabo stepped on:

 

Then we went down the trail and also found The Hobbit House:
