Today was another gorgeous spring day spent geocaching with my dad! My injured foot has finally gotten to the point where I can hike on it again, so today's caching took us through some trails in the woods- my favorite kind of geocaching. :)
Once again we found some pretty unique caches. Despite being in a location where you'd think this would be an easy cache, the hint was "Not a bison tube in a pine tree". Nope, it was a golf ball under the pine tree. ;)
I wish I'd gotten a picture of this one where it was: up on top of a tree branch. You tugged the piece of wood under it in this photo and it pulled the fishing line, releasing the actual cache from the tree. I'm short, so I needed my dad's help in grabbing this one, though. (That happens a lot- caches aren't always placed for short people.)
I absolutely loved this cache. The hint was "This one is for the birds!" so my dad and I both spotted this one at the same time:
This one was the black letters on the white background (turned out to be a magnet).
And this one was the last part of a pirate-themed multi. This was definitely my favorite of the day! The logbook was a map.
We also came across some neat architecture. This was what was left of a manor:
And this is the tiniest church I've ever seen. (The sweet story behind it can be found here.)
It also had a guard dog:
Along the way I made friends with a frog (toad?) and an inchworm. Here are both saying "hi":
And here are some pictures I took throughout the day.
(I love the "Please keep off tree limbs" sign. I know why it was there, though- I wanted to climb on those old, huge tree limbs!)
