Happy 2013!
On Tuesday we attended our local Geocaching Association’s Happy New Years Event and enjoyed catching up with many cachers we haven’t seen in quite awhile. It was nice to go as attendees rather than take Worldcaching as a vendor for a change so we could visit more and work less. The weather was fantastic for the Pacific NorthWest; nice and sunny and not so cold that our fingers would freeze!

We stayed and visited for an hour or so then did some power trail caches with a few caching friends. From there the usual 3 of us (myself, my husband & my brother) went and followed another power trail that had a great non-power trail cache on it: “Geo-Rebel Alliance Death Star”. The cache container was actually a Lego Death Star… How cool is that! Sorry, no spoiler photos will be posted.
A geocaching friend of ours was on the same trail as us earlier in the day and saw the same heron we saw in the dusk. Of course I left the camera at home so have borrowed his photos. He’s an amazing photographer. Isn’t his photo is awesome?

Great going, I just wish I could keep my blog going.
It was a good day at the New Years meet-up. I teamed up with another newbie and we found 11 caches that day! We didn’t see the Heron in our travels, but the force was with us when we met up with the Death Star!

Sounds like an awesome day, Spent the day 4 Wheeling at Stave Lake. Time spent with loved ones is always a day well spent. Definitely look forward to more caching with you guys.
