This checkin to GC97WKD 2 BH reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs.
A nonprofit I volunteer with has, years ago, held our Christmas bash at the nearby Fairlawns Hotel. We haven't been in several years and - even though we missed Christmas itself by a full month! - decided to return here this year.
I'm often an early riser, especially when away from home, and enjoy making the most of the first light with a walk. Last time I was here there wasn't a geocache in sight, so imagine my delight to find that now there's one right on the doorstep! Armed with a torch to fight off the renaming pre-dawn darkness, I braved the cold and came out to explore.
Found the obvious hiding spot quickly, but my sore back (Fairlawns' mattress was somewhat softer than I enjoy!) made retrieval challenging! Still, a success once I was on my hands and knees! TFTC, and Merry Christmas I guess!
Europe, and in Ancient Russia
