We signed my bother-in-law (Veric) up for an account on geocaching.com under the username of "FlyingZZ" (after the names of their boys Zack and Zayne). We pulled up the map of the available geocaches in the area (not many), but some cool ones -- none-the-less. So after breakfast, we ventured out to the first cache. It was a cache that we had previously found, "Wow, you must love cachin'" (GC1444A), and wanted to let FlyingZZ find and log as well. We then proceeded to one of the painted church caches, Praha-- Painted Church Tour (GC12EJ0), in this area and looked around. My oldest found this one and we explored it contents. This being their first cache, they were excited to see this size and contents. I dropped a TB and we hid it again. We then proceeded on to "President's Day Cache #2" (GC1101E) and arrived at the GZ. We did not even attempt this one. We pulled into the turn around and immediate saw the enemy outside the window. It was of the PI variety. Since both my bother-in-law (FlyingZZ) recently recovered from a cellulitis and I had already had our fun with this nasty stuff, neither of us wanted to venture out in the abundance of PI for this cache in shorts. Maybe if were were in jeans or such, but we were also with our kids, and instructed them to stay in the car while we scoped it out. ![]()
All, in all, we had a good time. I am glad that my brother-in-law seems to enjoy it, and hopefully this will give he and his boys more reasons to get out and find caches and bond together. We all look forward to visiting Granny again and finding some more caches together. |
