Caching north of Chicago

Today, we just decided to go for a drive and explore the area to get familiar with things. We headed north a little and stopped off for a few caches on the way back. Funny enough, both were near coffee shops. Which I just figured out when writing this...and Angela, although home in Texas, was giving us pointers by text the whole time.

Anyways, while getting dinner, I looked up nearby caches and found one that intrigued me because of its name. So we headed over to C₈H₁₀N₄O₂ and grabbed a quick find. But I do really love the name of this one. We caught a pretty sunset on the way back south.



Continuing south, we stopped for another cache after getting gas, and I really wish this one had been open when we arrived. A very nice area with bells ringing, flowers, a park across the street. And the cache was a little tricky (more to get without stepping on things I shouldn't than to find), so that added to the fun of this one. Loved It's really that good.



Our final stop of the night had nothing to do with caching, but a little carnival on the side of the road. Evan knows I love rides, so he went on the Ferris wheel with me, and watched me ride the spinny swing ride. I've always wanted to randomly go to one of these, so I'm glad we stopped.
