July 13th

Megan had a record sales day for the camp store

We needed to find a geocache today
because it is "Get Outdoors Day"

We had to phone a geocaching friend for a hint
so we could find the cache on this walk bridge
in Wood River Nebraska

June 15 - Geocaching Mahoney

Interesting Multi-cache at the Space Museum

This is the first clue to find the code to open the box

Air and Space Museum just outside Mahoney State Park

The second clue led us to this rocket
called the Blue Scout
"Blue" was the code needed to open the
geocache container lock.

An ammo can cache container east of
Mahoney along the interstate

Lots of goodies in the cache

Geocache site near Ashland.
Too many tall weeds.  We didn't find it.

Heading into the woods for another geocache

Found it!

Signing the log sheet and checking out the contents.

Mary spotted this geocache from the backseat of the truck

A geocache at another historical sign in Ashland

Another ammo can geocache along the hike bike trail
in Ashland

Moving on down the trail to the next cache

Mary:  "Do I have to go in there?"

Easter egg hunt

The log sheet is in one of those eggs

Mary was glad she hiked in to find this one.
Note:  It is in a blue egg.

A hide-a-key stuck to the bridge

Mary at the Holy Family Shrine

This little thing is called a "chirp"
It puts out a signal that the GPS picks up
and gives you the coordinates for the geocache

The chirp sent us to this old cemetery where the cache was

Geological site at Schram Park
We had to take pictures and answer questions
to complete an "Earth Cache"

Light house along the Platte River north of Ashland

May 19th, 2013 - Sunday afternoon geocaching

Sumner Nebraska
This was the starting point of a multi-cache
We had to get numbers from a historical marker here
to get the coordinates for the next state of the multi-cache.

Eddyville Nebraska
This was the second stage of the multi-cache.
We needed the numbers from this sign to get the
coordinates for the final location.

A new cache in Eddyville.  We found the hole in the wall
but no geocache in it

The geocache was named "Hog Heaven"
so Jerry assumed it was here.  It was not.

The geocache was here.
A different type of Hog.

Some very interesting sculptures.

This commemorated a tornado that hit the
town in 2000.

These were 55 gallon barrels.
You can't see the legs of the centipede.

Oconto Water Tower
Didn't find this geocache either

1/2 mile hike to find this one at Pressey Wildlife Area

We were high on a hill, but the pictures never show that

Mary camped here with her folks when she was younger.

Very small geocache in a hole in the post.

This is the final stage of the multi-cache that started
in Sumner, then took us to Eddyville and then back
to Miller, where we had found one earlier.
Couldn't reach this one from the ground

Kids didn't seem to care what we were doing on the other
end of the park.
