A. Morning Musings

I have a Caddies plunger full of Tim Hortons coffee. Not a bad way to begin the morning.

I may have a second try at the two nearby geocaches this morning. This may also be a chance to simply sit back and do some relaxed reading.

If I decide to stay with this geocaching, then I should add Geocaching as a Learning Category to my list. Done.

The book "Country Roads of Alberta: Exploring the Routes Less Travelled" looks like a superb book for getting me off the main highway.

Learning Category	Planned Activities for Today	Time
Literature	Continue reading "The Black Grizzly of Whiskey Creek" by Sid Marty	1 hr
Geocaching	Try again to find GC13B90 & GC13BVQ	2 hr

B. Actual Learning Activities

Success. My first 2-cache day.

I returned to the sites of the two caches that I visited yesterday, but this time with the additional knowledge of the hints. My 4th cache was "Lessard Road Sinkhole" (GC13B90), and my 5th was "Boogity, Boogity, Boogity" (GC13BVQ). Both caches are on the edge of the valley overlooking the North Saskatchewan River. Many of the logs of people who found these caches comment on the view as well as the beautiful houses. Here are a few photos that I took this morning:
