Geocaches #308 & #309 on 4/10/11


Geocache #308
Veteran's Bridge

In Kelseyville we stopped and found our next cache, a pretty common type of hide in the guardrail of the 'Veteran Bridge' there.

So it was a quick stop and cache!!  Small container took nada, left a piggy eraser and STL.




Geocache #309
VGR2- Pluto
I found it!!

Continuing around the lake on Hwy 29 we came to a pullout in the  road that someone had placed a cache near.  GPS was iffy, cell reception almost non-extinct, and my iPhone battery almost gone.  We were trying to use Carrie's phone, but it was soooooooooooo slooooooooooooooooow.

Finally, was able to get to the decription/hint and logs.  Once we had that information the find was made pretty quickly by Carrie yet again!! 


Sign
base of bush
The hint:  Base of bush and aligned with top of sign helped a lot!!!

Cache was a bit low on SWAG so I decided not to take anything, left an angel pin and signed the log!!

Geocache #307 on 4/10/11

Our next stop took us to the edge of Kelseyville and an old cemetery.

Geocache #307
Kelsey Pioneers


 




The description stated that we didn't have to go into the cemetery to get the cache.  Well. . . . . .the cache wasn't in the cemetery, but some fallen trees were blocking the path around the cemetery so we did have to step in it briefly to get around the fallen debri.

Otherwise GPS was right on, surprisingly, as there were so many trees around.

Carrie found it -- a nice size ammo can!!  SWAG was plentiful.  I took a small matchbox car, left the 'Ump' Travel Bug and STL. 



What a beautiful resting place for those pioneers!!
