Someday WH and I will learn to trust our GPS equipment. We traipsed around in the woods looking for Pipestem Quick Cache for over an hour. Up the hill and down the hill, around the hill, and back again. I had already given up when WH said to give him a few more minutes. You know what he did, right? He found the cache! Yay! Once he trusted his GPS and wasn't arguing with it any longer, he walked right to the cache. Here he is --
I picked up a small yellow CareBear travel bug and hope to transfer it to A Cache for Woobie later on today.
A quick find at Harris Homestead for me (marked a 2 difficulty, it should have been 1/2) then off to McKeever Lodge for lunch. All that prowling around in the woods works up an appetite, not that I actually need an excuse to eat. (More about that later.)
After learning our lesson about trusting our GPS, we walked right to the Law Hollow Trail Cache. Pleasant walk going down the hill, got some exercise going up. An easy find though.

Mrs. WH claims the final find of the day at Turkey Spur Cache. Nice going!
Cool fungus (looks like a sponge, doesn't it?) found on the Turkey Spur Trail.
As in the past, the day ended with a stop at the Hinton Dairy Queen for MORE FOOD!!!
A fun day, good weather, good company, good finds.
We gotta do less of that food part and more of the hiking in the woods part.
ReplyDeletei love the looks of that fungus! it does look like some sea coral or sea sponge! what beauty!
