New Years Souvenirs and 2022 in Review


The above pic is 2022 year in review. Stats always fascinate me.

Caching in the Sun!!

Went out with Sansue on a sunny afternoon and grabbed 9 caches, in Pitt Meadows. 2 were multis and a few were high difficulty caches. 
This one was called "Blockhead"
It was found quite easily as it was out in the open, so I hid it a little better.

Just a rock????
NOPE!!!
This one had us walking in circles for a bit.

Columbus Ohio Trip

Went to Columbus, Ohio for a Magic convention at the end of January. On the first day of my trip, I traveled down to Seattle to fly out the next morning. I got 14 caches on the way to airport, including a First to Find before heading over the border. One was a puzzle cache which was also a challenge that I was able to find as I have completed the task. One was a Letterbox cache and then also 12 traditional caches but 2 were very cool gadget caches by “Bouncebounce”



I will probably visit these again when Susan and I go down that way, just so she can enjoy them also.

Whenever I head down this way, I seek out his caches as they are very cool gadget caches that he puts a lot of work into.















2 caches I found were cool little free libraries. 




One was very colorful and the other was designed like an old fishing building.


Awesome craftsmanship in this Free Library structure.


















DAY 2:

Got to Seattle airport just after midnight and once inside I was able to do a virtual cache and 2 5-stage adventure labs. 


One of the benefits of being 6 hours early for my flight. Lol. A total of 11 finds all in one place.





On day 2 of my trip, I found a total of 3 different Virtuals in 3 different states (Washington, Michigan, and Ohio)

I also got 2 new state souvenirs, and 3 Adventure labs.



A virtual at the bust of Edward H. McNamara, and who the airport is named after.


So many cool sculptures and architecture near my hotel in Columbus.














Day 3:
Today I was only able to get 2 nearby stages of an Adventure Lab between my hotel and the convention hotel, as I was at the convention all day long.

Day 4:
Today I tried to do a cache that was on the roof of a parkade, but the doors were locked to get to the elevator and stairs. So I got no caches today but had a great time at the convention. 

Day 5:
Headed to the Columbus airport early as my flight home was at 6:30am. Got to the airport and was able to get the Virtual there. 


Very interesting sculpture called "Brushstrokes in Flight"
The Columbus airport was almost empty, so it was easy to get a good picture.





Had a 4 1/2 hour layover in Detroit but I had already got the AL on my way here, so not much to do but wait. lol





Once back into Seattle, I got in my car and started heading for the border back to BC. 

I grabbed a Virtual and a Traditional in Marysville, and one more challenge cache on the way home. All in all a great trip, lots of Awesome Magic, some great caches and home safe. 




Well that's it for this month,
Keep on caching!!
