GC23M12: Rocks & Spikes – California

Sitting at a comfortable 26 cache finds in three states of the union we felt it really was time to start contributing.

So we crafted a little ‘box’ of sorts out of some scrap redwood that we had sitting in the basement.  Sanded a little plug out of some other redwood and rolled up a log sheet and popped it in.  All together it took about six minutes.  Easy as pie!

Then Kira got home from work and we went on an exploratory walk of the neighborhood in order to find the perfect first hiding spot.  Someplace we’d like others to see because we’ve received joy from it too.  And.. that’s the sun set.  We hope you enjoy this find.

GC22Y57: Steps to Sinton – Colorado

Here we are with 9 finds under our belt and a fast growing following within the house hold.  Before I know it everyone’s gonna be hunting around with little computers in their hands and I’m gonna loose out.  It’s time I take the next step.  Hiding one of these little buggers.

It’s not hard, there are rules, kind of… really there are only a couple and they’re really straight forward.  But, alas I forgot to read them all carefully.  AND we placed our too close to another cache, though I do say our’s is a much better cache.  In fact, YOU be the judge.  Below are two spoiler photos.  You tell me which one is cooler.. I won’t tell you which one is mine.

Okay.  Now that you’ve got that all figured out, here are the facts you need:
