CACHE EXTRAVEGANZA - Part 2

On our second day of our camping trip/Geocaching Marathon we started the day with a healthy breakfast and a quick swing in our hammock. After last nights awesome sunset and successful finds we were ready for more! The pinnacle of this cache-o-rama was the Whale Rock!I will paste my log for this find, as I feel it says it best! When you find a cache you log your find with any interesting tidbits and photos at www.geocaching.com where you can read other people adventures too!

BOOYEAH!!! This was the coup de gras for our cache-tastic weekend! We gathered the tide data and timed our hunt accordingly. After a BEAUTIFUL stroll across the beach we approached our quarry. The water was a bit nippy, but with perfect timing we waded across the river and assessed the situation. Muggles abounded on this marvelous day, but we forged ahead. Up, up, up we went until we were on top of the world, surveying the muggle peasantry below us, ignorant of the geocaching glory that was about to occur. You'd think after such a rigorous climb, the placer of this cache would show mercy with an easy hide. After breaking into the completely useless clue, we considered our options, and failure was not one of them. On the brink of madness, my mind fraught with anguish, and some concern my wife had fallen off when I couldn't see her searching below the lip of the rock, I spied it! Flush with success I leapt into the air with joy, shouting with glee and capering like a slightly drunken fellow. After high fives and whoops all around, the wife and I signed the log, and made our decent to the lower planes of existence, glowing with geocaching success. This is our new favorite!!
