Everybody has a different way of waking up in the morning. Here's a way to start out your morning, by gathering with a like minded bunch of people to swap stories about geocaching over a cup of Joe.
I've been on a wandering road trip to Denver and this is actually my last day of the road trip. I should be back home in Southern California later on today. But, I have to have my morning coffee and breakfast, so why not meet some of the people in the Flagstaff area?
Come on down and grab a cup of coffee and spend some time shooting the breeze with other local and not so local geocachers. You'll be able to trade travel bugs and just hang out for awhile while you recharge your batteries with your favorite type of morning beverage. Or just sit and shoot the breeze. There is no need to purchase any food/beverage to enjoy ourselves here.
This event will be held at the Starbucks in Flagstaff on Route 66 and Ponderosa Parkway, located at 1688 East Route 66, Flagstaff, AZ 86004. The event will start at 8:00 AM and end at 8:45 in the morning. That way, you'll still have plenty of time to do whatever you wanted to do for the rest of the day. There should be plenty of parking for this event. If you have travel bugs that you've been holding onto for too long, now's the time to get rid of them, especially if you know they want to go to California.
