Geocache Description:

 

 

 


A group of seven friends meet once a year to talk about our lives, loves, joys and troubles. A few years back we each collected 8 stones - each of which represents a decade of years. As we are all over 40, we placed 4 stones on the ground. It was a significant moment realising that we held in our hands less than half of our days (if we were lucky) left on this earth.

We started a tradition this year (2017) of honouring our parents whose stones had run out by placing a geocache in their honour.

Rona (1939-2017): A committed wife and amazing mother to her 3 boys. A teacher by trade, she had a wonderful way with children and ensured her sons made the most of their opportunities. She loved her pets and had a large collection of toy hippos and although her latter years were robbed by Alzeihmer's disease, memories of her laughter and adventurous spirit live on.
