Our First Geocaching Day in Denver

So since our last duo video blog, we have received quite a few suggestions on what we should put up to entertain the fans. We got suggestions for great duo video blogs as well as a request for more andyfacts.com (see the post before this one for the premier). Another suggestion from Dad E was that we post some pictures of us exploring the area.

We decided to complete this task by doing some geocaching in our new neighborhood. We explored three different parks in the area and found seven different caches. We had a few snags, but for the most part we had a fun day! The weather was perfect and despite some really bad coordinates and clues, we would definitely consider today a success. While the pictures are not in order (thank you blogspot), each has their own story.

The picture above was supposed to be a multi-cache (where you go to one spot to get the coordinates for the next spot). Unfortunately, whatever we were supposed to find at the first spot wasn't there. Not to be deterred, we used Andy's awesome 7th sense for the location of geocaches and found the second cache without the coordinates. That log in his hand is the actual 2nd cache. Pretty sneaky look.

This little cache was pretty tough to find, but was in a beautiful spot by a lake. Minus the mold and thorns, it was a pretty fun find!

This was a pretty cool hiding spot and a pretty easy find.

This was our second cache of the day. It is actually a locked box on the side of an electricity pole. This was Andy's favorite of the day because it was such a unique way to hide a cache. You can't see them, but there were HUGE industrial power lines above us crackling the whole time. Andy said that the metal plate in his head was starting to feel funny. Wonder if that is FDA approved?

Can you find the cache in this picture? It's in there. (You can't see it, but we found it!)

This was our last find of the day. A little bit screwy. We actually went to find one more in a pine tree, but we looked forever and since we were surrounded by scary people who were hiding things in the bushes pretty near us for a later night underage drinking party we decided to leave.

This was actually our first cache in a really pretty park. There were quite a few people out and about so we had to put on our stealth.

Overall, we had a great day! We were thwarted by three caches, but we hope to get back out soon and find those and some new ones. Another fun-filled day for the new Dossetts. Now, back to the Olympics and those underage gymnasts.
