Almost 100

We dropped the girls off at EFY(especially for youth) and while we waited did some geocaching hoping to get my 100th find before it got dark. Our first geo stop, not far from the church where we dropped the girls off, was near the Temple Beth Shalom. It was called Spokane Religion: Judaism.  

This picture show hubby getting in touch with his inner Jew or maybe he is just kneeling to the geo gods. Actually the cache is down inside that cable covering and even after several attempts we were unable to get it out to sign the log. We will have to bring one of the grandkids with smaller hands to help retrieve it if we come back to sign the log.

Next we went to Circle of Life. With the clue [look where the yellow lines meet] it was a quick and easy cache. I had it retrieved before hubby even made it out of the car.

On to Comstock Park where we were hoping to find 2. The first one was fairly easy if not a little cold. I am glad I had my gloves to wipe away the snow while I was looking in and around the rocks. The first of the two is called Comstocks Rocks and obviously it was found in the rocks.

The second one is called Woodstock. We couldn't find it, but we found a likely spot and I suspect it might be missing. I put a watch on it to see if someone else finds it or to verify that it was missing.

On to Manito park- I know it is a very beautiful place and would be a great location to take pictures of my 100th find. Since we couldn't find the Woodstock Cache, we need to find # 99 before we go to Spirit of Nature that I chose as a potential to be my 100. For #99 we did Child's Play-Manito Upper. It is located not to far from the playground. It did take a little bit of searching but had great clues so we knew we were in the right spot.

We also knew it was a full sized ammo can and there are only so many places "that" can hide in a city or park setting. Hubby claimed the find. He is good at finding those ammo cans! The contents were explored and the log was signed. Everything was put back as it was found and the rush was on. Getting to and finding the #100 before it got to dark to take pictures. If it is a quick locate and find we can do it. We found the parking spot and started following the directions of the GPS. We also know it is behind and under a large rock formation. Okay, there are way too many large rock formations, we are going to have to count on the GPS to narrow the choices. The GPS starts wigging out and not giving us a good read. We start searching but it is getting darker and darker. If the GPS doesn't give us a good GZ read or we don't stumble across it in the next few minutes we are going to have to save the #100 find for another day, because I definitely want it light enough to take a few pictures. Obviously, that didn't happen since the name of this post is almost 100 and I am still sitting at #99 for my geocache finds. Time to go out to dinner at Applebees and then to see the movie "2012" before we pick up the girls after their dance.
