We first
heard about Geocaching in November 2004. After a lot of
hemming and hawing about which GPSr to buy, we finally did our
first cache one year ago on Memorial Day Weekend, 2005. In
the past year our caching adventures have taken us all over
Michigan - both peninsulas - and out to Yellowstone National
Park and back! Even so, most of our caching fun has taken
place locally here in Saginaw, Midland, & Gratiot
Counties. We wanted to place these caches as a way to say
"Thank You" to all of the area cachers for their dedication to
placing and maintaining caches and for providing our family with
so many hours of fun!
This park
was where we found our first cache, so we wanted to add a couple
more to make the stop enjoyable for other cachers. (Besides, with
$3.00 gas, it will be more affordable, too!) Most of these should
be quick easy finds for the family to enjoy, however a few will
take a bit more work.
This cache
was placed by our 7 year old son. You are looking for a small
camo'd lock box. Please hide as good or better than you found
it.
The Saginaw
News says that the "Roethke Rail" - miniature train - is open for
the summer. Hours are Noon to 4 PM on Saturdays and Sundays,
weather permitting. Train Rides are $1.00 per rider. Looks like
fun!
