Found GCB4774 LOL #5 – Shooting (revived)
This checkin to GCB4774 LOL #5 – Shooting (revived) reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Success on the second attempt. The geohound "guarded" the buggy-trapping ruts while I searched three different hosts before finding the container. TFTC!

Wrote note for GCB4774 LOL #5 – Shooting (revived)
I let the man with the kids and the dog ahead of me so I'd be able to mount searches without having to stop and separate dogs, but I caught up with him literally at this cache! His buggy (which carried two of the kids - the third was strapped to his chest) had gotten stuck in a rut and he was busy extracting it.

Found GC3PP47 LOL #3 – Wrestling
An excellent container in a picturesque spot. FP awarded. The geopup didn't want to come exploring off the path so I had to find this one by myself. SL, TFTC.

Found GC3PP1Z LOL #1 - Athletics
Being between jobs, I decided to offer the geohound a longer then usual walk this morning and clear my head before an application form I need to fill out. We opted for the first leg of this series: let's see how far the little pooch's legs will carry her! Cache found easily, SL, TFTC.

It wasn't until I made time for myself to get out into the countryside near my home and take the dog for a walk that I realised how much stress I'd been putting myself under during my team meetup, this week.
Istanbul was enjoyable and fascinating, and I love my team, but I always forget until after the fact how much a few days worth of city crowds can make me feel anxious and trapped.
It's good to get a mile or two from the nearest other human and decompress!

Dan, a red leash hung across his shoulders, gives a half-shrug as he smiles for a selfie on a grassy trail between a hedgerow and a field. Behind him, near a weathered old-fashioned footpath sign, his French Bulldog looks at him expectantly.

Woke up. Had a walk. Now it must be time for a well-earned nap. 💤

Found GCAP4MF Church Micro 15127...Curbridge
I had an errand to run in the Windrush Place estate on the other side of the A40, and the geopup needed a walk, so I opted to park the car over in Witney so my four-legged friend and I could walk the remaining way over to Curbridge and find this cache.

Work Slippers
Last month, the dog ate my slippers, and in the week it took me to replace them my work productivity took a dip. Coincidence? Nope! They were my 'work slippers', and it turns out I needed them!

Found GC3KQK8 RRR11 Pillow talk!
This checkin to GC3KQK8 RRR11 Pillow talk! reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. My partner Ruth is, by installments, attempting to walk the entire Thames Path. Today, I'm on transport support so I've driven ahead of her to Culham Lock and the dog and I are walking back to meet …

Wrote note for GC9EXX4 Friar's Farm - Bisected Byway
Checked up on this cache while the dog and I were nearby. It's in fine condition and ready to find. The latch for the container is beginning to rust, but the whole thing is perfectly serviceable. Go find it!

Yesterday, owing to some plot, the dog didn't get as much outside/walk/play time as she'd like.
Today, she let me know how she felt about that by shredding my slippers. 🙄

A partially-shredded slipper is held in a hand, in front of a French Bulldog, on the wooden floors of the hallway of a house.

A lunchtime dog walk was made especially delightful by the growing warmth of the approaching British springtime. It's really bright and pretty out, this afternoon!

A French Bulldog in a harness but no lead stands in front of a empty field, under bright blue skies with sparse clouds. Bare wintery trees can be seen in the background, bathed in warm yellow light.

Found GC2F23P A Road Anarchy - A40 Eastbound to Oxford
This checkin to GC2F23P A Road Anarchy - A40 Eastbound to Oxford reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. No logs here since... 2023!? Mindboggling.
The geopup and I were out running some errands this damp afternoon and figured we'd take a walk near here. Spotting the cache on our radar we … -
Found GCA1K70 Oak Protection
This checkin to GCA1K70 Oak Protection reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. After claiming the FTF on the new cache to the North East, the geohound and I continued our walk with a wander through thy woods, eventually finding ourselves near this gate. I'd nearly attempted this cache during a …

Found GCB2FZ4 Family Fun #2
This checkin to GCB2FZ4 Family Fun #2 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. FTF! It's been a while since I've typed that!
Woke this morning slightly hungover and figured a nice walk with the geopup might help me feel better. And what an opportunity: a brand new cache only a short …
