I only have so many words that I can type per day, so geocaching logs is where are all of them went today. Pretty pedestrian stuff, but if you only read one of these, let it be #6.
- Among the Palmettos – Parking coordinates, smarking coordinates. We pulled into a handy spot near the playground and took a nice little walk to the cache. We spotted the container in short order and in our usual fashion, then discovered the easy way out. Took a SC Parks clip and left a few small items. TFTC
- Lakes Region Challenge Hamilton Branch State Park – After finding Among the Palmettos we walked out to the point to find this one. Took an SC State Parks jar opener and left Chick-Fil-A fun book. TFTC
- Mt. Vernon Halfway House – Neat container! Swapped a couple of travelers. TFTH
- Rabbit’s Revenge – We were here in the park hunting the SC Parks Lake Challenge cache and we passed less than 1,000 feet from this one, so we thought what the heck. We took a Matchbox car and left some Mardi Gras beads. TFTH
- Lakes Region Challenge ? Baker Creek State Park – We too used Succotash’s coords and I made parking more difficult than the walk to or finding the cache, it was a good thing we weren’t in the Miata… Took nothing and left some Mardi Gras beads. TFTH
- Beans for Delightful – We were here in the park hunting the SC Parks Lake Challenge cache and this one was a little more than a half mile further along, so we thought what the heck. We were a few hundred feet from GZ when I noticed a large bird walking parallel to us through the trees. At first I thought it was a wild turkey, but it looked way too big and it was moving about 4 times as fast as any turkey I had every seen. I pointed it out to my wife who too got a brief glimpse of it before it was to far away to see any more. I kind of wish the park was officially open, so I could have asked a ranger if there were an wild emu (although the coloring looked more like ostrich) living here. Oh, yeah, we found the cache too. Took a kiddie book and left some Mardi Gras beads and a small Florida pin. TFTH
- Haunted Stump – We left nothing and the only thing we took was a worthless lottery ticket, all the while not disturbing the snail living on the the container’s cover. TFTH
- Lakes Region Challenge ? Hickory Knob – After finding the Haunted Stump cache we walked across the street to grab this one. We took a Matchbox car and left a kiddie book. TFTC
