After our morning walk of 3+ miles, we donned our geocaching event tees and hats and then headed into town. At exactly 11am a horn sounded and a bunch of cachers waved American and Canadian flags surrounding the fountain in Old Town Yuma.
The four of us led the crowd in singing "America the Beautiful" and "My Country Tis of Thee". It was a fun event honoring our service men and women from down through the centuries, who have given all of us the freedoms we enjoy.
Of course, no geocaching event is complete without eating. So at promptly 11:11am on 11-11-11 we all piled into Lute's Casino and enjoyed a Lute's Special for lunch...a hamburger with a split hotdog on top.
We discovered after moving on down the road, everyone had to use a restroom. So we stopped at Brownie's Cafe...did the "Hug the Bear" geocaching challenge...and ate big pieces of pie for dessert.
Not one of the four of us had dinner that night. It was a snacking evening.
Oh almost forgot...I met Don (3rd Times the Charm) from Pine Hollow. Seems he was a member of the same union as a cousin's husband and is a neighbor of theirs...small world. We belong to the same geocaching club here in Yuma.
