Our last stop for the evening was BEST OF BRITISH LUCK TO YOU. A lot of long grass and it was getting late, so for simplicity, we left Lilly in the van. A farily quick find. We found a trackable, though not one that can be tracked at geocaching.com. This MAGC – Military Association of Geocachers (Red Logo) coin is trackable at pathtags.com. Thusfar it seems that it’s just easier when things are tracked at geocaching.com, but maybe PathTags has some neat features.

Next up was our very first virtual cache: Central Park. Being that new ones of these can’t be created anymore on geocaching.com, we probably won’t get too many more of them. We had to read the description pretty carefully, but we did come up with the right answer. One again, because of where we were, we left Lilly in the van (though we did take Haylee so we could both get out and look).

Too Tempting! was supposed to be a quick park and grab, but as of right now we’re still pretty new to the micro-caches. There’s so many ways we’ve heard about that those can be hidden and we’ve pretty much only found the ones in 35mm canisters to date. Because of where we were, Lilly and Halyee stayed in the van while we each took a quick turn looking.

The evening took a turn toward the not quite as nice with Rix’s Run. We found the first stage easily enough and got the coordinates for the second stage. Logic would say that we were in the right area as it seemed like a really good area to hide something, but we came up empty handed. There were some odd mighty odd trees in the area.

Also in Rycenga park, we found Cool Tools. This we were close to it at one point in GPS land, but there was a big ravine in the way, so we had to back-track and go around. We found it relatively quickly once we overcame the ravine issue. This one also had a travel bug which we grabbed: Wistle Stop Bug. We left a toy car.Two caches and two travel bugs! What a great start to the evening.

Started this evening in Rycenga park in Fruitport. Our first cache in this park was Greg Gets Grounded. We walked just a little bit further down the path than we needed to, but we did find it. We left the AuntieNae’s Laugh-A-Lot Care Bear Travel Bug and picked up a Poly, a TB in memory of somebody’s K-9 friend.
