Homer's Cache Find #85 found on 03/07/09
OK, the last find of the day was another micro and we almost gave up. We are certain the people working at the Home Depot thought we were up to no good as we wondered around out there for over a half hour!! The funny thing is, about 15 minutes into the search we were right where it was, we just didn't see it up under the metal box around the base of the light pole! Once we found, we just signed the log and put it back. Since we had some errands to run, that was the last one for the day. BUT, we hope to get back out caching soon!!!
Until next time.....

"Catman's Log" Find #84 found on 03/07/09
Ah, a regular size cache to look for. A nice change for the day of micros!! Anyway, just off the Allegany River Trail in Olean, this was a quick find. N spotted just as they were walking off the trail on a well worn path. Since it was such a wet day, we didn't do any swag trading, we just signed the log and moved on. BUT, this find really made us want to get back out in the woods geocaching!!

Bonnas View Sweet Spot Find # 83 on 03/07/09
This had to be the fastest cache and dash we ever did since it was located at a very busy intersection. J found while searching the crosswalk area. He said N would have had a very tough time seeing it stuck in behind the box on the pole. Well, we just sat at the little area, signed the log and J put the magnetic cache back. On to the next one!!

Little Valley Post 531 Find # 82 on 03/07/09
This was a tough micro and we were feeling just a little rusty.N thinks her height made the discovery a little harder than it was for J as she spent most of her search time in the general area. We were about to give up when J was standing in the right place and was able to see the different looking bolt. Sure enough, the strange looking bolt was the cache! Only a log here! These tank hides are always tough!!

Bicentenial Park Micro Find # 81 found on 03/07/09
OK, sorry there's no public picture on this one! Due to the weather, we made this a quick cache and dash. N had actually found this one before while showing coworkers how geocaching works, so she left J to find on his own. The magnetic key holder is still damaged and the log was a little damp. Since it was raining, we signed as quickly as we could and headed on to the next one.

It's been way too long
Hello.
It has been a LONG cold winter. Even with the rain (and the ever present threat of flooding into our basement) we are glad to see the signs of Spring. With J almost done with his Winter schedule, we are both ready to get back into the woods and searching for geocaches!!
Yesterday, J took the afternoon off and we decided to brave the impending rain storms to try and log a few finds. I am happy to report we have 5 to add to the list, bringing our grand total up to 85. In a few weeks, we'll try to get out every so often and hopefully we'll be breaking the 100 mark soon!
Well, as soon as I get the pictures posted on Flickr, I will blog our geocaching experiences from yesterday. I still can't believe we had not logged a find since November 11th. That is just way too long.
We must admit, 2009 has not started out the best for us. In mid-January, we very unexpectedly lost J's Mom and it has been a roller coaster ride since then. We hope that getting back into the swing of things with the nicer weather will help change our perspective on things. Nothing like the solace of a hike in the woods to clear the mind.
