"AGT-Crawford-(WOW)" find # 47 on 10/11/08
Well, since we were going to be heading through Crawford County while traveling down for the GeoCoinFest 2008 - Pittsburgh, we decided to catch a few caches on the way. Plus, it made it so the event was find #50! Well, as the name explains, WOW. What a neat little church. It was a beautiful day, too.
As per usual, we found the cache the hard way and left the eay way. We went up the stairs figuring it was behind the church, but ended up walking down the back driveway and over to the woods behind the church. The find was relatively easy. We signed the log, stamped our passports and headed on our way.
Until next time.......

"AGT-Jefferson-Happy Ending find #46 on 10/05/08
As darkness was beginning to set in, we had our final find of the day. Completing our Fifth AGT County, we tried to make this find as quick as possible. There is something unnerving to me being in the woods as it's starting to get dark. Perhaps I shouldn't have watched the Blair Witch Project. We have to start remembering to mark the car as a waypoint so we don't fret about finding our way out.
Well, as this day of caching proved to us, we really need to get moving on finishing up the AGT. The days are getting shorter and soon winter will be here.
We attended the GeoCoinFest in Pittsburgh on the 12th and we worked on Crawford County on the way down and back. Be watching for those posts in the coming days!!
Until then..........

AGT-Jefferson-Game School Cliffs find #45 on 10/05/08
We had a nice little walk to this cache. Fall is our favorite time of year! The caching trip today held many beautiful views for us. As per usual, we were on a schedule with another cache yet to seek, so we made this as quick a trip as possible. We grabbed a travel bug to move on signed the log, stamped our passports, and headed back out. Now on to the last cache of the day.
As a side note, we have set us a system that will let us better log our finds. So beginning with the caches we found on 11/02/08, you should notice some better blogging.

"AGT-Jefferson-Heath Station Cache find #44 on 10/05/08
OK, so 'm doing a horrible job at getting caught up and here I am planning another caching trip for tomorrow. Well, I can honestly say I never turned my computer on at home Thursday or Friday. Thursday I was ill and yesterday we were out for the evening. OK, before I start to plan tomorrow's caching trip to Venango County, PA, I'm going to get this blog done.
This was a neat find. The short hike started at a trout hatchery. Needless to say, J wanted to stay and check out the fish. Well, after dragging him away, we headed into a wooded area. As per usual, following the GPS and trying to get there quicker than the trail, we took a few shortcuts we probably shouldn't have. We walked through some soggy areas before finding the old jeep trail. Once we were on target, we found the cache relatively quickly. This was a neat hide. It's amazing the places mother nature leaves for cachers to hide things in!! Anyway, we stamped our passports, signed the log, left some goodies and headed back to the car.
On to the next one. Until then.......

AGT-Jefferson-North Fork Cache #2 find # 43 on 10/05/08
This was our third find of the day. The area was really cool. Very reminiscent of Thunder Rocks at Allegany State Park. We had a lot of fun playing on these rocks. We left some goodies and headed on our way.

"AGT-Jefferson-By The Moonlight" find #42 on 10/05/08
This was a quick dash and cache. The cache also serves as proof that caching can take you just about anywhere! Thank goodness it was after the season, so we didn't have many muggles to worry about!
I notice it's getting harder for me to blog about these older caches. I'm just going to have to buckle down and get them caught up before we have more.

"AGT-Jefferson-Reynlow Trout Run" find # 41 on 10/05/08
As you can see, this new hobby of ours is taking us to some pretty serene places. J really liked the log bridge we had to cross to get to this. The first of 6 finds for the day, we were off and running. Today we hoped to complete Jefferson County. Stay tuned to see how we fared!!

More to blog!!!
OK, just a quick note. We were VERY successful in caching yesterday. We completed 2 AGT Counties that included 12 finds, the most for us in one day. I'm going to my best at getting caught up with all our finds over the next few days/weeks. I may try to post more than one a day!!
Have a wonderful day!!

Got lots to do and never enough time!!
Hello. Just thought I'd drop a quick note. I've been meaning to get our cache finds blogged, but spent most of this evening creating a plan to get (hopefully) two more AGT counties done tomorrow!! We have 14 more finds (as of right now) that I still need to blog, and I'll only have more by the end of tomorrow!! Hopefully at least 12 more, making that the most we will have done in any day. If we are successful in completing both counties (Clarion and Forest) we will only have 2 more counties to go!! We are trying to hurry up and finish the entire AGT trail before Thanksgiving and I think we may just be able to do it.
Wish us luck for tomorrow!! It'll be a busy day!! Untile next time......

"seths revenge" Find #40 on 09/07/08
OK, we decided to get this one on the way home as it's just down the road from our house. We've seen it since it first came up, but that darn bridge being out kept us from stopping for it. Well, the bridge now has 1 lane back open and we were going near here anyway!!
For those who know the area, this is a view of Valent's. N got to enjoy the wonderful scent from here time to time (when the wind was blowing right) at her house growing up. I'm sure it amazes those who come from larger areas that I consider myself a "city-girl" when I was less than a mile from a working farm!! Well, when you live in 1 of the 2 cities in the County.......
