We met in downtown Oregon City, after they had spent a full day of fun(in the heat) looking for, and finding Geo Cache's. They went to the very first site ever, nearby, off of Redland Road! I do believe that the Cache's allowed me to even get to meet them! The raging heat wave we have had here in the Pacific Northwest, has really been suffocatingly stifling and they had gone to the beach with family just the day before, and found sweet relief!
If it were not for the "draw" of the prize and thrill of the first G.C. ..the drive back, to the too-hot-city may not have occurred and I would be stuck writing to her, instead of hugging her in a sweet greeting!
After out dinner and spirited conversations ranging from G. C. info, Endurance riding, a new small business I plan on getting in on and my "Boarding Expose'" blog she wants to join in, to vent with me about weirdo BO's -that are stuck on themselves, instead of stuck on service to clients and agreements...we headed out to find one more local cache. There are several kinds, and this, I did not know.
Getting the location, from GPS.
oh that is so cool!!! you made the photos even more romantic with your effects! i was totally thrilled tonight to come back to the room and have my man point me at the laptop, to show me this post.
ReplyDeletewhat a fun day and meeting you was awesome, i really couldn't be in oregon and not meet you, no matter how hot, and yah, it was hard leaving the cool!
i just ate three huge crabs all by myself from my uncle's fishing trip and now we are sitting in front of the fireplace ...get this...with a fire going! yah, it's not hot here!
fires are scattered all over the beach, and my man just asked me to shut the balcony door so he can hear his tv show. that ocean is really really loud!
i will blog something about our day now, but i won't be able to make the photos look all dreamy like you did!
thanks for that, you are just as sweet as you are online. no crazy internet encounters today!

(oops. I went back and found spelling typos. Must be my eyes and brain are still reeling. lol!
ReplyDelete(I fixed them here)
Oh no, Kacy. I want to read this post but my eyes won't focus with the orange font on blue background. Must be old age. That font color makes my eyes water and see blurry. wah!
The photos are absolutely wonderful, though. It looks like everyone had such a wonderful time!

So cool Kac...Can we start Geocacheing on horseback? We gotta get together soon...miss your mug:-)
ReplyDeletere: geocaching on horseback
ReplyDeleteThere's at least two geocaches on the 50-mile loop of the Renegade Rendezvous endurance ride! (there's another cache right up the hill from camp, too)
Anybody want to meet me there next July?
It's a great ride, and I know *exactly* where those caches are hidden....
