☕Happy International Geocaching Day☕
☕Coffee Version!☕
With hopes of earning at least one souviner today and getting some much needed caffiene, I thought to host an event at a local coffee spot. I am also wanting to add/help with "the most explorers caching on the same day", to beat Geocaching's record (if I'm remembering correctly) on August 11th, 2013.
I'll be out front of Pete's Coffee (8948 Burke Lake Rd, Springfield, VA 22151), from 9:30 am - 11 am. Feel free to drop by and say hi, bring your TB's to trade or to be discovered, grab a cup o' joe, etc.
