    Default D'Arbonne side trip


    At the gathering this weekend, the wife, kids, and our friend Laura stayed at the cabin on Saturday, and found out about something the park offers called geo caching. There was an app they downloaded to their phone that provided coordinates that were used to move down trails and find hidden boxes of items left by past 'explorers' that went looking for them and did a swap. Sounded like a pretty fun adventure, and she took some pictures of the fun, so thought I'd share.

    Found the first cache.

    A bit of nature


    Jacob and Brody found a hanging vine...


    ...of course, someone had to give it a tug, at which point it fell around them. lol






    Brody and...I think it's half a turtle shell.




    The 3 amigos


    Anxious to see what's in the box...


    Anyway, may be too many pictures, but they sure seemed to have fun so I thought I'd share. If you make it to the park, give the office a call and they can provide details about this park 'attraction'.

    Thanks for sharing Scott and my wife was not happy that I didn't tell her what cabin yall were in so she could have went with them. I heard her talking to your wife Saturday night so I am sure you have heard the story too! lol Well next time, I will make sure she knows where your family is staying so they can get together.

    Yeah, I was in the same boat Dwyane. I told her, "it was on the website" after she let me know she wasn't randomly going around knocking on cabin doors. Friday the kids were supposed to work on school ( both are homeschooled) but I heard they road bikes all day. Neither has had one for a while.

    I guess once I was at the lake, I had a one track mind...fishing time! Please apologize to Angie for me.
