    Dropped Off 5/4/2018 Pengwinldy placed it in Mule Hill California - 13.42 miles  Visit Log

    Mule Hill: Working the late shift today so decided to take advantage of the time and the nice weather and go for a hike and grab some caches. I really enjoyed learning about the local history, especially about Kit Carson and Kearny.

    Visited 5/2/2018 Pengwinldy took it to "My Current Favorite" California - 17.18 miles  Visit Log

    “My Current Favorite”: I saw this pop up last night while it was raining and had hoped I could grab it on my way to work this morning. So off I went-no linger raining-until I got out of my car. Thankfully there was some cover to shelter me. At first I didn’t think I had much to go on but I did have an idea and it turned out to be correct! FTF! Tried to leave my penguin but she didn’t fit so just took a pic instead. Thanks for the fun on this drizzly morning.

    Visited 5/2/2018 Pengwinldy took it to Rub-A-Dub-Roland California - 9.3 miles  Visit Log

    Rub-a-Dub Roland: Luckily it was pretty quiet here when I went. Despite that, I looked at the hint so I wasn’t too conspicuous. There were a couple of options and it wasn’t in the first place I tried but it was in the second place. Cute little ducky.

    Visited 4/30/2018 Pengwinldy took it to Salvavidas California - 203.84 miles  Visit Log

    Salvavidas: Stopped for this cache by the beach and found it but the cover was stuck. Had to wait out several sets of muggles.

    Visited 4/28/2018 Pengwinldy took it to Golden Opportunity California - 220.87 miles  Visit Log

    Golden Opportunity: this weekend the Girl Scouts from San Diego came to Kernville for high adventure which included a day of white water rafting and grabbing some local caches. I had a trackable that wanted to come back to Kern County so I’m dropping it here.

    Visited 4/27/2018 Pengwinldy took it to That King Creeps Me Out California - 101.66 miles  Visit Log

    This King Creeps Me Out: So, I’m taking my Girl Scouts from San Diego white water rafting in Kernville. This was our pit stop. While at Walmart I looked for nearby caches and this one popped up. Ran over here and made the quick find. It truly was one for the numbers. Thanks for helping me keep my COTD streak going. The container is missing it’s lid and needs attention.

    Visited 4/26/2018 Pengwinldy took it to "Eileen" California - 13.35 miles  Visit Log

    “Eileen”: FTF! I saw this pop up last night after I was in bed and decided to get up early to try and find this one. This time it planned out for me. First I drove past and wasn’t comfortable with the parking situation (you could pull over but I didn’t). I went around the block and parked in the dirt lot on Cornish and walked down. Found the place I was looking for and had the cache in hand in just a few moments. Good camo. Watch out for the barbed wire! As I unrolled the log, I saw CTP’s name and was bummed until I saw yesterday’s date and “beta” on the log. Phew!

    On the way back to the car, a very friendly kitty named “Oliver” ran up to me and sat down. I gave him some loving and called the number on his tag (yes, at 6:15 AM), in case he was lost. Nope. Apparently Oliver is a hunter and lives on the corner. He followed me back to the car, then across the street and up the steps to his home. All is well.

    Visited 4/26/2018 Pengwinldy took it to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets California - 24.15 miles  Visit Log

    Harry Potter and the Chamber Of Secrets: Aha! I have avenged my previous DNF. Thanks for replacing it. The first time I tried I was with my hubby and we ended up bewildered in the mall parking lot. The second time, I found the entrance to the chamber but I was alone and dared not venture in too far. The third time I was prepared with DegelDuo and the cache was missing. Today I was once again with DD and we were joined by Grandma Buck, Roxie Mama, and ParkerSaru and we made the find. Yay!

    Day 16-Make a Gingerbread House: I had stopped by Merrill Gardens up the road for a Girl Scout event and grabbed this cache. I liked the attachment.

    btho tu: Stopped for my COTD on the way home today. Parked on the side street and made the short walk to GZ. Took the worry doll and added a penguin.
