Geocache Bash



Lindsey and I had a blast this summer camping with our aunt in Wyoming. We tubed down a creek, drank a few Bud Light Limes, told stories, giggled, and wore crazy hats. We also went on our very first Geocache Hunt! We never realized tromping around the wilderness could be so fun. On the trip home we vowed to be regular "cachers" and find as many as we could; however, returning home to the 40 hour doldrums of work quickly made our new hobby fade away. Several months went by with no new caches; just work, chasing cows, and spoiling Joe Jack Jr. (our new nephew).

Joe Jack Jr.

Until a very monumental event happened in December...Lindsey's 30th birthday! Now, many in her position may have hid under the covers in the fetal position and mourned such a milestone. But not our Lindsey. When I called and told her to dress warm she didn't ask any questions, just did as told. I picked up her and Matt and we headed out. I finally told them what we were going to do and soon the hunt was on! It was a cold day but we found two geocaches and discovered an absolutely beautiful canyon!





Lindsey and I will definitely not let months go by without another geocache excursion...



...not sure Matt is really into unnecessary hiking in the wilderness though!
