Our first Geocaching attempt
When we went to
www.geocaching.com, we entered our zip
code for the cabin. Voila! Up popped over 50 caches within a 20 mile radius of
us. Since it was our 1st cache, we wanted to try something simple. Ha! It wasn't
as simple as we had thought. We found the location easily enough, but finding
the actual cache eluded us. Here are some of the pictures and information we
had:

To honor those before us.
Went by this a number of times. This was the
first time I stopped to see what it was. I've used these before not in work
but play. This is a great tribute to them.
This a small cache with only a pencil and log sheet.

This is what we found at the
coordinates. It's a hose cart house built in tribute to the Toulumne County
Firefighters. But we never found the cache. Also, one of the neighbors (a
geomuggle) was giving us the evil eye and even yelled at us, so we decided that
it was time to leave. |

A plaque built in tribute to the
Toulumne County Firefighters. After you're done paying your respects, be
sure and head to the casino down the road (!). |

While we were in Tuolumne, we decided to do a bit of
exploring so we headed up the road that goes to Cherry Lake. We drove way
the heck up there, it seemed like we went on forever, finally turned around
since it was getting dark. |
