Wish It Was Summer

Put this off long enough-needed to check on Sink or Swim (our cache)
Going solo today, everyone working,school, or just plain old didnt want to go with old Glark lol.
Made it to Gz with no problems and...cache gone! Oh well- so I checked on next closest cache, .2 miles from me. Made the find in less than 20 minutes. }:{>

Mario Luigi

Had to take Tyler (The Chisel) for a grooming appt and happened to check caches in the area.
Surprised to find this on right around the corner. Made the quick find and logged it.

Middletown Trails: Two Pillars

Upper Darby showed up at the house, so that meant I was gone.
Been a while since I cached-pondcomet works all the time.
So I went to see what McFlyer has been up too and sure enough he has placed some new ones.
Went after two pillars simple enough but ran into some stinging nettle ugh
Forgot how much I enjoy caching
Maybe in fla. I can do some one day
;)

Serenity


McFlyer whispers ( the next one is only 800 ft from here)
We were gone, leaving Manny, Moe and Jack aka Li'l
Squaw and tHE cHISEL to guard the trail and nurse
their bellyaching. Poison Ivy leading the way, we made
quick work of it!

Embrace The Fog


Well the hill did not seem that high...
After a 10 minute climb accompanied
with a side order of whinning, we made it
only to find a wide open trail that led to
the cache. Found,signed and home it is.

Beaver Creek Falls


Took the steep way in for this one.Poison Ivy
up to her calves in the mud but kept on, no
complaining. She saw the cache but couldn't
get to it. McFlyer risking life and limb got to it
but sadly forgot his pen...a quick throw and it was
signed. |:{> GB

Beaver Overlook


Entered the park and made our second
find of the day. I had the hint and told no one,
made short work of the cache. Nice hide.
|:{> GB

For Rockhounds Only




A great day for caching, sunny and 70 degrees.
After we made it to the parking coords, McFlyer
ran to the cache like he put it there! Round 1 McFlyer.
A full crew, with a bag of soft pretzels, we were ready.

MPI #400


Wanted to get this one done for a while.
Went solo on a Sunday afternoon, parked
in a business parking lot and there were
still some people at work there. Climbed into the
brush and made my way up to GZ.
Made the find and hightailed it home for dinner.

Middletown trails:Butter Days ahead 2


Another new one from McFlyer! Pondcomet
was able to come with me. A really nice walk
to the old railroad tracks and staying on the
trail and not Glarking it, we made the find.

Middletown Trails: Darlington Daze


With Pondcomet handling a deadline, I
took tHE cHISEL with me. Downloaded the
coords and drove to the parking coords.
Checked the GPSr and found it did not load.
I had exceded the limit of GPX files.
Went home, erased all and re-loaded.
No we were in business! This is McFlyer's
domain and wanted to be prepared.
Got to GZ but became overwhelmed with
the search. After 30 minutes tHE cHISEL
paf and got McFlyer to give us little clue...bingo
cHISEL found it. |:{> GB

OMG Spiderz!



Went out with McFlyer,Lil'l and El Bear-new to the
game. Apparently this property was owned by the
Furness family, old money. The land was turned
into a park years ago. Went in, got to GZ and just
to many possible hiding spots. At the base of the
old mansions foundation El Bear made the spot!
a natural! |:{> GB

X-Men Marks The Spot: Colossus


McFlyer called to say he wanted to hit
this cache. Igor, a friend of Chisel's
wanted to tag along. Hope he knows
what he was in for. Lil'l made the trip also,
but could have done without the spiderwebs.
Coords led us right to the cache, with McFlyer
using his geo-sense to pinpoint the spot.
Igor was hooked, grinning ear to where his other
ear was... \:{> GB

Lost Again


I hope we weren't, We climbed a pretty
high incline and left the woods for
the industrial park, lonely on a Saturday
except for the Mexican landscape crew
who eyed us down. We made it to GZ
I climbed some rocks ,made the find
and Pondcomet spotted a snake, not
being a fan, I quickly got out of there.
|:{> GB (not actual snake:))

Adventurers Cache #1


A very pretty scene was GZ for this one.
A micro with a thousand different possible
locations. We searched and poked and
prodded to no avail. Then I stepped on it!
Out in the open and not covered. Duh!
|:{> GB

Woods 1


After Pipeline1 we went for this one.
Was not much of a hide-quart container
not covered. At least we were out of the
sticker bushes :)
|:{> GB

Pipeline 1


It was way too nice a day to sit in.
Made plans for 4 caches that were
local and we had not gotten yet.
Could not find the way into this
one, so we Glarked it. After the stickers
and nettles it was easy sailing to the
cache. The Chisel had some problems
with ragweed, sneezing all the way in.

Clayton Pipe Refit


We were not sure if the rain would hold
off long enough for a 4 part multi...
Well we decided to go for it. Got to the
first part and could find nothing-back
and forth I searched, Pondcomet yelled "got it"
well I could see some scratches that turned out to
be coord's. Added, then waited out some golfers...
She found the next and the next numbers.
Now walking thru knee high brush for me, I lost
Pondcomet. But I heard a muffled grunt as she spit
out some weeds, jk. We arrived at GZ and I made the find.
Signed and took a TB. TFTC |:{> GB

Phobia #10



It seems now that Tuba is hooked
on caching. He came down to visit me
again today and wanted to go out
for a find. I checked some spots we
have not gotten yet and we were off,
(he is a little more than me,lol)
Trails not to far from our house
had our prize. Taking the trail we were able
so find a micro pretty easy,because the
phobia was about bees.
Signed the log and headed home.

Tuba-" Your not gonna blog this, are you
oldman?"

East Goshen Park Multi


After Walk the Plank, McFlyer took us
here for a multi. It started off fun, a family
new to caching was trying to find the first
stage and did not know what they were
looking for. We showed them and wished them
luck. The markings on the stages were cleverly hidden.
Tuba has shown he is a master of the GPSr.
Finding coords left and right. McFlyer found the
cache at the end, but not before enGlarking
into some thorn bushes! Ouch
