Adventures in Geocaching – July 20, 2019
We knew that today was going to be really hot in North Carolina and that it wasn't going to be a fabulous day to be outside, let alone bushwacking through the woods looking for geocaches. We decided to get up really early in anticipation of the heat and head over to the Haw River paddle … Continue reading Adventures in Geocaching – July 20, 2019
Adventures in Geocaching – July 13, 2019
On the way home from Haw River State Park the other day I noticed that there was a really cool geocache very close to the park so we just HAD to go check it out.

Adventures in Geocaching – The Trip South (part two)
After resting up with the family in a Pennsylvania hotel we headed out the next morning early..... aaaaaaaaaaaand promptly missed logging Maryland.

Adventures in Geocaching – Bird Nest and The Devils Head
While visiting my sister on vacation I had the opportunity to tag along while she hid one of her geocaches. We really wanted to hide it in a local cemetery but there is this rule that says that you cannot be within so many feet (I forget HOW many) of another cache so we were … Continue reading Adventures in Geocaching – Bird Nest and The Devils Head
Adventures in Geocaching – Maine
The first rule of geocaching is: You do not talk about geocaching. The second rule of geocaching is...... Just kidding. You can talk about geocaching. That's not a rule. I just thought it was a sweet fight club reference. Lol. There are a couple of rules though, but they are reeeeeeeeeally easy: If you take … Continue reading Adventures in Geocaching – Maine
The BIG Dexter 4th of July Fireworks and Parade
Moving right along and trying to get all caught up on the blogs I missed while on vacation....... No summer vacation would be complete without a small town fireworks display and parade. We spent July 3rd at Lake Wassookeag because that seems the thing to do in Dexter, Maine. It was the busiest I had … Continue reading The BIG Dexter 4th of July Fireworks and Parade
Moosehead Lake – Katahdin Cruises
One of our weekday trips was up to Moosehead Lake in Greenville, Maine to take a 3 hour boat tour on the "Katahdin".
