June 4, 2008, 8:57 pm Karen and I went to Nevada City for an overnight of fun and relaxation. While she window shopped in Grass Valley I did a walking tour of caches close to downtown. Picked up 5 this way. After she was done shopping we drove out of town and looked for some more. There seemed to a prevalence of nanos hidden in a hole in rock or a piece of wood, so they weren’t easy. We found another 4, but had some frustrating hunts.
We ate dinner at Cirino’s in Nevada City (very good). It turned out to be the weekly pizza night, so was very busy and thus noisy. We stayed the night at the Northern Queen Inn where I had to be involved in a 2 hour teleconference.
June 3, 2008, 8:56 pm Dan and I had a free day, so I planned a trip that would start with the bunch of caches at Penitencia Creek. After we got there it turns out Dan and Janet had already found a bunch of them. No matter, there were lots more to choose from. These were mostly in city parks and along suburban streets—nothing particularly memorable. I found 19 caches for the half day or so we hunted.
May 24, 2008, 9:20 pm We (Dan, Janet, Dave Y, and I) headed up to Wheatland today for Geowoodstock. The weather didn’t exactly cooperate—it was overcast, breezy, and sprinkled on and off during the morning. We arrived around 10am and spent an hour and a half or so wandering around. I really didn’t see much of interest, although Dave bought some geocoins and other trinkets.
Leaving Geowoodstock, we began caching. The close-by caches were traffic jammed—I’m not sure the logs ever got put back in the container because there was just a line of folks wanting to sign the log. As we headed off toward Marysville and focused on puzzle caches, the crowds significantly diminished. Dan had solved a lot of puzzles in the area, so we took advantage of this to concentrate on finding them. For the day I ended up finding just over 50 caches, as did the others.
