    Found GCAXYB9 Freeland to Hanborough #04 - Revived

    Found in the third candidate place I looked, as the other walkers from my youngest kid's taekwondo school escaped into the woods ahead. Had to jog to catch up after this find! Discovered my kid leading the pack, when I finally got there.

My partner Ruth and are only in …

  • Found GC46YDF Second Row - Ball Retention

    This checkin to GC46YDF Second Row - Ball Retention reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found lying on the ground, in the open.

  • Wrote note for GC9EXXC Shady Seat on The Green

    Quick check while I was passing, as nobody's logged this cache during our stupidly-hot July or August (and I don't blame them: it's been horrible outdoors!). Anyway: the cache is fine and healthy and looking forward to its next visitor!
