We went into town today to see the movie "New Moon" and after that it was time to get my 100th geocache find. Nuttyguy(my son) and an older daughter had hidden it earlier in the week hoping it would be a first to find for us, but since we live almost an hour away from where it was hidden and we don't have the instant pop ups on our phones to let us know about new caches, we had missed the first to find before we even had noticed it published. As it was we got second to find. Anyway I figure it was special enough to count as #100 because of the family connection. I knew with Nuttyguy involved it would be a little tricky is some way so that gave me a clue where to look even though the actual cache posting was not very forthcoming about that sneakiness. I found it fairly quick but accidentally pushed it to far up into it's hiding place while I was feeling for it. I tried hubbys pen to bring it back down where I could grab it with my fingers again but, it was to no avail. So we called my daughter on the phone and had her bring out a magnet.
Of course it was also a great excuse to see my adorable granddaughter in the process. The magnet worked great and soon we were signing the log and snapping pictures.
After spending a little time with my granddaughter we moved on to pick up a few more caches while we had daylight. Next on the list is Wall of Vines. Hubby spotted it quick and we enjoyed see our older daughters name on the log as we signed it.
Next on the list is Logged. The girls and I start heading in the general direction looking for logs on the ground and waiting for hubby to find GZ. Meanwhile he walks right to it and has it found before we even see that he is going a different direction than us. It is one of those that could be tricky hidden in the log like it is.
On to the next Cache: There is a Spring
This one is located in a very pretty spot close by the ones we just found. Drumheller spring comes right out of the rocks. The cache is up the hill a little ways.
You can see the cache in this picture.

This was not the end of our geocaching for the day. The blog did not let me continue. We finished off by finally finding Some Random Place2. (The tree climbing one)
Found it on the ground after reading through the rest of the logs and getting a hint from Nuttyguy. Hubby wasn't going to have climbed the tree in vain and so he made sure to place the cache back up in the tree where it should have been according to the clues and those who found it in the beginning.
