Caching into the New Year!!
New Years Eve in the States!!!
Booked a NYE gig down in Bellingham, Wash.
Susan and I headed down early to grab several caches before my event. Susan is on crutches right now, so we had to just do some drive up and easy to get to caches.
We were able to get 1 Virtual, 1 Letterbox cache, 1 Whereigo, 1 puzzle cache and several Traditional caches for a total of 19 caches.

2025 wasn't too bad for caching. Found 644 finds this past year, not too bad.
Oldest cache I found this past year was a Virtual in Santa Barbara, California when I got off the cruise ship for a few hours.
12 different distinct cache types, Only 81 caching days though, that's not that many. Might need to get out more often this year.
When I read on my 2025 stats from above that I did 130 finds in one day, I was like..."When did I do that??"
I then looked to see that it was the date I was flying back home from San Diego after my 5 days on a cruise ship, and I did 26 Adventure Labs at the Airport. The crazy part was I did all 130 finds in less than 30 minutes. Must be a record for sure!! Lol
Booked a private Party in Anacortes, Wash. this month, so I headed down early so I could grab a few caches. Took Susan with me as well.
Here is a pic of a cool looking downspout found near a cache called Gutters.
Found a total of 1 Puzzle cache, 1 multi, and 14 traditional caches
NOTE: The highlighted or underlined words in my blog can be clicked on as they are links to other cool stuff!! Also if you click on any of the pictures they become BIGGER!!!
Next month, I will be heading to Vancouver Island over to Ucluelet on the west side of the island for a show.....But more about that in Next months Blog....
Well that's it for this month!!
Keep on caching!!
