Soiled Gingerbread Man

Cool, let me think and I'll add onto the story before passing along.

...ahead of him was a turbulant white water rapids and before his kayak rolled over he paddled for shore. He climbed up a slippery snowcovered rocky hill; low and behold while looking for a safe cave to spend the night in, he found another ammo can. It had the same strange words "Geocaching" on the side so he peeked inside and saw that it was full of treasures and even a coin who was trying to travel as far as possible. The coin was able to explain a bit about the ammo boxes being fairly safe but there were stories of bomb squads coming along and blowing up some of these "safe places." There's usually not much warning just the approach of human foot steps then "kapow" the box and everything and everyone in it gets blown to smitherings. Gingerbread man could hardly sleep those next couple nights, but since he could not find a bomb he figured he was safe. As he got comfortable and figured this might not be a bad spot to spend the winter he heard foot steps approaching, he was scooped out of the box, looked at, and stuffed into a warm dark bag attatched to some human's waist....

 The voice responded, " You need to leave before they come back."
 "Who?"
 "Some big clown in a funny oufit."
 At this the Gingerbread Man took off running because of an unfortunate past experience with a clown at the circus.  However, that is another story.

 It was time to run off to some new adventures. He hopped into his kayak and paddled down the Eau Claire River in Central Wisconsin.  There was much scenery to be seen and much history to explore.  As The Gingerbread Man manuevered his kayak around a bend he couldn't believe what lay ahead.  His eyes bulged with excitement as he saw...
