Up with the lark,
breakfasted, and on to eBay. They were selling job lots of
undercrackers at bargain basement prices. What with one thing and
another I was still in my jim-jams went Hosey arrived. I got dressed
and we set off for a quick morning’s geocaching. No surprises there
(!) Lisa had put some caches out, and was saying that they
were intentionally rather tricky.
The first one was near
Singleton Lake. I think. I’m pretty sure I was within spitting
distance of the thing, but no joy. The trees overhead did upset the
GPS signal, but after twenty minutes we had to give up. But we did
two other caches in the vicinity just because we could.
The next one was up near
where my beloved works. The clue had us foxed and we drew a blank on
that one as well. But whilst in the area we had a go for Lisa’s
puzzle cache. It’s on the geocaching site as “Hooked on
Caching”, and we found it. But with a puzzle cache, finding it
is easy. Solving the puzzle is the tricky bit. And, without giving
the game away, we solved the puzzle. We felt very pleased with
ourselves as we walked back to the Hosey-mobile.
We popped into town to
have a look in the 99p store, and then came home. Via two more
geocaches.
Hosey had to go home, so
I had a spot of lunch and took the furry one for a walk. Out through
Newtown, through some new footpaths, down Hythe Road and home past
the railway. An hour and a half’s walk. Fudge seemed to like it. I
quite liked it; even though it was a hot day. On the way I planted
two more geocaches. And now that these two have been accepted my
“Badger’s Cache” series is complete.
When we went out I had
good intentions to mow the lawn and iron shirts on our return. When
we came home I had a cuppa and mucked about on silly games for far
too long until "er indoors TM"
came home. We drove down the road to collect Lisa and Earle and spent
a pleasant evening wandering here, there and thither. Guess what we
were doing. Mind you, the sunset was spectacular....
