Geocaching Logs from 7-29-09

FireRef (Found it) GC1983E - FTF HOUNDS MN STYLE - two of hearts (1.5/1.5) by Lbungert
This was one of about 11 caches that BVFDJR, FFKid, and I did on a roughly week long trip to go see the Mall of America and do some other fun stuff around it. This was on Day 4, when we were testing out my new iPhone 3GS and the geocaching application. It was a really simple cache, easy to find, and was pretty cool - I wasn't expecting the pig container that it was in. Sorry if that is some kind of spoiler, but for the kind of cache it is, it is a pretty cool improvement over what is normally there. This was also one of several we did to try to cheer up one of the members of our group, who, being quite far from home, was struggling a little with that. This one didn't do much for it, but some of the later ones did, so they achieved many purposes - found a cache, got more on our numbers, and had fun! Thanks for putting this one out!

This was also one of several we did to try to cheer up one of the members of our group, who, being quite far from home, was struggling a little with that. This one was pretty fun to find, as FFKid and I discovered it while BVFDJR was crashing through the underbrush looking a little further away from where we were. It was a cool container. I would also like to mention that in the spirit of trying to have some fun, FFKid managed to race me running backwards, never a smart idea, and managed to scratch up his hip and backside pretty good - definitely good for a laugh for everyone involved. Thanks for putting this out and for bringing us here!
