Geo-chaching



On Saturday, we needed to go into Sonora to attend a meeting about volunteeering to plant trees in the Rim fire area, so on the way we decided to boondoggle and do some geocaching.

The first place we started had a cache in a drainage that went under a road and shot out the other side with at least a 20 foot drop.  Jim and Jeremy went into the pipe searching for the cache.  Unfortunately we think it fell the way of El Nino and got dislodged and lost because we could never find it.




Right where we parked, G and J saw a plastic bag filled with "a possum".  So we all went to investigate and saw it was truly a bag full of something that looked like it had once been something alive!  First thought was...."what if it was a baby".  That led to action!  Jim grabbed a stick and started poking at it!  While Tina yelled, "Jim put that stick down"!   After poking awhile they decided it was the entrails of something.  Why it was in a bag on the side of the road, no one will ever know!


Our second cache was less exciting.  We found it in about 2 seconds and put a Trout Festival sticker in it.



Final destination was the Rim Fire Reforestation meeting.  More to come on that later!
