Geocaching & Quad Riding

We went geocaching in Old Town Yuma after the SouthWest Area Geocacher's breakfast Sunday with Bill and Kathy. We found about twelve in just a couple hours. Spent some time trying to guess the answer to a puzzle cache that would open a combination lock, but no luck. We'll go back to that one. With the help of the internet, Kathy and I believe we have the anwer now...lol

The rock we're holding is in Roxaboxxon Park. It's based on a children's book about children with no toys who use rocks to build houses and cars, etc. Cachers are encouraged to bring a rock from their state and leave it. This is NOT our rock, but one Oregonians left.

Quad riding with a bunch of friends today. Took some new-bies to the Fortuna Mine, then we headed south to try to find the Harrier crash site. Bet you can guess...yep, that's part of it at Norman's feet. It's scattered over a wide range. Nothing big...but, boy oh boy, lots of stuff I could never identify...I took the coordinates at the site, then walked out to the road. We're thinking of setting up a cache here. It's taken us a couple years of trying off and on to find it. We both think it would make an interesting cache for people to find. Only problem I can see, it might be too long a walk in...my GPS said I walked a mile out to the road. I'm hoping to find a place online to convert the coordinates I took to distance by mile.

Isn't this just the greatest big nest?? No bird around, so we have no idea who uses it, but it's a biggie. Several of us decided it was a Kodak moment...enjoy the pics.

To my man's delight, I also picked up the perfect flat rock from a wash to paint for the park...LOL...I'm thinking a fir tree with a mountain...our geocache names...the state name.
