Geocaching Baby Style

This morning we met Sara and Georgia at Hart Park to do some geocaches. How exciting to make some new caching buddies. So we parked the cars and decided to walk to 3 within a fairly small radius. The first one was a bust, as we walk up Alix spots the lid to a container on the ground. Okay, that can't be good. As we study the area we can see where it should have been. Very cool idea for a film canister hide. So we did a good deed and replaced it with a log. Georgia got to learn the joys of a squeaky little duck but she was pretty interested in holding moms GPS. Off to #2, it too was MIA but the strip of metal that had been hiding it was bent back to completely expose the nitch where it should have been hiding and if we replaced every one that was muggled we'd never get to cache. So on to #3 which had eluded many. We come up to an area and Sara was first to go down the embankment to check out the base of a tree. I took the other side but tracking instincts told me that where my foot slid and pushed up leaves and such, others would have done the same, so it wasn't on that side. We studied the tree, Sara decided to climb it and THERE it was. She reached to grab it, we signed it and headed back to the cars. Passed on some puzzle caches and parked for our next 2 finds. Pretty sneaky little places. Did a park and grab in a soccer park where we got to enjoy the sprinklers, it was starting to get pretty hot. Headed to CALM, grabbed another by a dead cat... eww. Then took a few wrong turns, ended up at a cache we hadn't planned on but Little Miss Georgia fell a sleep so mom sat out on this one. We grabbed it quick and called it a day. It was almost noon and we were wiped out. Staying up till 2:am wasn't our best idea.

Oh well, we had a super great time walking around the park and meeting 2 new caching friends. Hope to do it again soon but can't wait till the weather cools down.
