- Found it
So Mrs. Inkwell finally convinced me to get out of the house and go after our 1st opencache after work today. She's been lurking around on this site for weeks now, begging me to go after some of these. I finally caved in with the lure of two new caches in Bond Lake and I have to say that I've come around to the idea of a different caching option in these parts. Not that we're going opencache exclusive or anything, it's just cool to break up the monopoly a bit.
We've been to this park once or twice in the past, so we had a pretty good idea of where to park and what trails to take to GZ. We dodged lot's of mud puddles, horse prints and ATV ruts as we toured the beautiful "upper" trails of Bond Lake. Halfway into our journey, we knew that there were other cachers in the park and we were hot on their trail, as we found a clue to their presence in the form of a 4-page cache printout on the ground. We reviewed it and realized that it was a listing for your other new cache here, so we thought that there was a good chance that we'd be signing the logbook for this cache 1st. Not that it matters really.
Anway, after a stop on the escarpment for the other cache that I've made reference to almost a bazillion times in this log, we hiked toward GZ for this one. We jumped off trail and made the find here after a brief search. Looks like we missed Cayuga Crew by a mere 2 hours. Geez, if we knew he was coming to our neck of the woods, we probably would have invited him over for dinner or something.
Thanks for introducing us to opencaching. We've now found our first geocache here, placed our first geocache here, found our first opencache here......oh, and Mrs. Inkwell tells me that we got married in this park too...almost forgot about that one.
Thanks for the cache!
