I spent a good part of the afternoon caching with roxy1rose, the first time we have cached together, although we have exchanged e-mails over the past year or so and she has attended some of my events.
We had no problem this afternoon with Easy-Treesy (GC2P9YJ) once we found a decent access point to the dykeland. It was a nice snowshoe walk in from Kieren Pathway. Even saw some pheasants who really didn't want us there! I've never seen pheasants fly so far!
We then went to try Planter Dyke (GC27BEQ). CO Hugh and I had exchanged e-mails about it and he was concerned that I might have trouble getting around some large ice cakes that had washed ashore. Rose led the way and we had no problem at all. Well, I went into a wet sinkhole with my left foot up to my ankle, but no problem except a wet foot. My boot will be dry within a day or two!
Had a blast with Rose. We talked a blue streak, had a few laughs and spent the afternoon in the beautiful sunshine! Life is good!
Sounds like a great way to spend a nice sunny winter day. At least you guys have snow so you can use your snowshoes, we are back to bare ground here again.
ReplyDeleteGiven the choice, I would pick bare ground every time, Brian!
