PLANNING

This cache has been out for a week. With the weather beginning to improve I decided to have a search for it while carrying out a few tasks on the other side of the river.

OUTCOME

My GPS unit clearly indicated that I should take a trip up an alley near the hospital and I was able to park only a few feet from the cache. Keeping the hint in mind I surveyed the area and quickly realized that the cache was likely under the small porch. And I was right. Total time: about 2 minutes.

Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:

Stopped by on the way home. Took TB. SL. TFTC.

Here are a few photos:

Travel Bug

I retrieved the TB and will place it in another cache soon.A check of the information for this TB indicates that it has travelled just over 11,003 km since beginning in 2007.

I am 1/1 for today. That keeps my total of caches still to find in Lethbridge at zero.
