Finding some caches with the hubby with rain

Once again, the hubby and I set out to fin some caches. We found six in all, and for the most part these weren't that difficult. We did come across one in the wrong location and put it where it belonged (or where we guessed it belonged), and we came across my favorite type of cache - a cemetery cache! I gave this one a favorite for the day: Bethel Cemetery.

Travelling to the UK on my birthday

I had a work trip to do a presentation at the office in the UK, and while I was there I got to meet up with the person I found my first cache ever with. She, her husband, and I walked all around in the freezing cold so they could show me the area and we could grab a few caches before getting dessert and coffee. I got a lot of history about the area and three caches in all. Sadly, all are now inactive (but well after I and many others found them).

• SCC8 - Cathederally
• Sheffield's Central Park
• SCC7 - Leo's Bedroom

This cache had a LOT of cats

The hubby and I were headed back from the gym and I got the urge to check for nearby caches. We stopped at this one and waited out a muggle, then after they left we saw what that muggle was doing. There were probably 20 open cans of cat food and at least (at this point) 10 cats eating from them. In a parking lot. Anyways, we made the grab and got out of there.

Rehasing of 2014 goals and setting of 2015 goals

Well, not so bad this year for the goals. Not 100%, but since I also found caches in Denmark, Iceland, Norway, UK, Ulster, Grand Cayman, and Mexico, I'm cutting myself some slack on the fifth state.

Get to 600 finds:

105%

Find caches in 5 states:

80%

With this in mind, I only have one goal for 2015: fill out my Finds for Each Day of the Year chart. We shall see how this goes, but so far I think I can do it. Below is how I'm starting off the year; I'll keep it up-to-date on its own page.

Finds for Each Day of the Year

Caching with new friends in Grand Cayman

Lesley and I went on a cruise without the boys (we have more vacation time), and since all we wanted to do in Grand Cayman was walk around and shop, geocaching fit in here quite nicely. We made a couple of new friends on the ship who joined us, and really made it a lot of fun for us. I quite enjoyed all of these caches, for quite different reasons, but in the end they gave a great first time geocaching.

• By George, it's Fort George! - great intro cache, even with the puzzle tied to it to open the cache. What a tiny little fort.
• How Bazaar - the GPS was very inaccurate here, but we were able to spot the loot without notice. Neat little place to shop for crafts here.
• Spirit of Recovery 1 - this cache was so easy, I missed it. Simple, funny hide.
