Rainy Days In Daniel, Geocacheing and XBox Music

Well the rain and snow stayed but at least it didn't accumulate. So we talked about what to do and Matt found some more geocaches that were along the road. Grabbing our raincoats and rain pants we headed out in search of hidden treasures.
The first geocache was the hardest. It was a micro cache and added to its small size it was covered in camouflage tape. It wasn't hard to find the general area but we all walked by the cache several times before Matt spied it hanging on a tree. It was just as hard to unroll the papers and sign our names, then roll the papers back and stuff them into the tube.
As we drove to the next gps cache we talked about the small size and how we all had been looking for another ammo box, like the one we had found the first day. Arriving at the next spot we parked and looked, even crossing the fence before Matt told us that the caches were all on public land, so we crossed back.

A gopher watched and probably it seemed like it was trying to figure out what the stupid people were doing. After all there was good grass and the sun actually had come out for a little bit. It took us a while before we found the microcache, and again camouflaged to blend with its surroundings.
Our next cache was west along a gravel road and we hunted a bit before we realized we were not far enough to the south to find the location. A four wheel drive road led in the general direction of the ridge but it was wet and generally four wheel drive roads in Wyoming are best left untraveled in wet weather.

Returning back to the kids house we rested and visited until after dinner. Matt broke out the guitar, microphone, and drum set and we took turns being rock stars. It was really fun to play on the XBox and if we had the room we probably would buy a game console and the equipment, but we don't have the room as we reserve our spare space for rocks.
It had been a great visit and it snowed hard the next day so we hooked up the house,(fifth wheel), and drove back to Star Valley. It does our hearts good to see Matt and Patty so in love and doing well in such a beautiful but harsh country. Clear skies
