L3-Geo Finds #2000


We did it! We found our 2000th Geocache!!We were joined by Don Stoye in our quest. He was the one who originally interested us in Geocaching.We left early in the AM as we wanted to have plenty of time. We were originally headed for an 11 stage cache located in the Spenceville Wilderness Area. We were unable to find the third stage of that devious cache, so after over an hour of searching, we moved on the the NUT MEG'S cache--still in the wilderness area. We were glad we found this one quickly!

We never were more than 3/4 of a mile away from the car as the crow flies, but we walked roughly 5 miles up hill and down hill--mostly up! We had some beautiful views and for such a hike, the weather couldn't have been better--a little overcast and not too hot!

We spent the entire day in the Spenceville area and found at least 10 caches. Some required more hill walking than others, but we enjoyed each and everyone of them.

By days end we had found 13 caches. We just couldn't resist those extra three caches on the way home.

Now that we have accomplished this fete, we can get busy finding the local caches that have been hidden recently. Finding Geocaches is a never ending task and we love it!
