Travel is fun!!

McLeod Lake

 Booked a show in McLeod Lake which is about 2 hours north of Prince George. Flew into PG and rented a car, and then headed up the highway towards McLeod Lake. 

My show was in a small community by the lake. I only found 4 caches while here.

I felt there should have been a cache at this location.

But there was not!!

On the way back to the airport the next day, I stopped for a visit with Mr. PG

I visited him on one of my last trips up here but it was in December and minus 20. BRRRRRRRRRR

Edmonton Trip

Went to Edmonton, Alberta the day after I got home from Prince George, for a visit with family, and was able to grab several caches while in town. 

Also did a Free show for the Senior Centre that my Mom lives at.

Got a total of 9 Traditional caches, 5 Wherigo caches, and 1 puzzle cache.

Got 25 stages of AL's also,

got 13 of those stages while the plane was coming into the gate still. lol

 

This was a cool cache hide I found in Edmonton

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!!!

Penticton Trip

Booked a show in Penticton, and went there the night before and stayed in Summerland, so we could do some caching on the way there as well as during the day before my show

Did a bunch of caches in and around Summerland

Then we also went to Peachland for just one cache that had 128 favorite points on it.

This was the cache box on the back of the Peachland sign, but to open it, you needed a special tool that was nearby.

Here it was open, very cool. We added 2 more Favorite points to this cache!!

Found a total of 18 Traditional's, 1 multi, 1 wherigo, and 1 Puzzle that was really cool and more like a multi, and at every stage there was a different method to figure out, to get you to the next stage. 

This was at the first stage of "NOT Just Another Pile of Geo-Sticks"

You had to count the knots in the strings to get the co-ord's to the next stage.

The second Stage was just info but if you don't know how to project a waypoint or have the appropriate app to do so, you would be very confused. 

To get to the Last Stage you needed to convert the coordinates from UTM format to GPS also known as WGS84 format

We also did 5 Adventure labs with a total of 24 stages.

At the end of September I am going to Salmon Arm again for a corporate gig. I was thru there back in May and Susan and I were thru there a few years back. Gonna get several caches on the way there and in town, also in the beginning of October, I will be boarding the Holland America's Eurodam and heading south to Santa Barbera and San Diego of but more about that in Next Month's Blog.........

Well that's it for this month!!

Keep on caching!!
