PLANNING
This was our first full day in Vernon. I had the afternoon to myself to do some geocaching so made a list of 14 geocaches and headed out to see what would happen.
OUTCOME
11:45 am This was my 2nd search of the day. This turned out to give me a lot of trouble. The only possible hiding spots that I could see were the cement parking barriers but a careful look at and inside each of them revealed nothing.
Here is my posting to the geocaching.com website:
My second Vernon search and my first Vernon DNF. Not a problem. The spitfire made it all worthwhile. And I will see it again when I give this one another try. Here is a photo:
Beautiful!
I am now 1/2 for today.
