The Commonwealth was "safe" last night

By: Fourcacheteers Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small

Had to stop for one here, since we needed to pull in for gas anyway. TFTC.

The Farm Bureau

By: Geokashers Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro

On the way to the nephew's birthday party, and thought we'd arrive fashionably late by following the GPSr to a little box... TFTC.

Turritella Snail Bed

By: TeamNulti2003 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Not chosen

I figured I was pushing it a little with the uphill grade to the cache site from the suggested parking coords, but that's good for me, right? Anyhow, we found the place and read the info and enjoyed the short walk. Well, maybe Geo Baby didn't exactly enjoy it, but she liked doing the downhill on the way back... WalruZ has sent the email, and here's the photo that LeChuck took at the cache site.

Wind Caves

By: TeamNulti2003 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Not chosen

WalruZ, LeChuck, Geo Baby and I were cruisin' Diablo today, ostensibly for a family outing that could also double as a cache maintenance run. I had a little time to do some research on the caches to determine which one's I could waddle my 8 month prepartum self to (and that the almost 4 year old would propel herself to), and it looked like Earthcaches were our best bet. We did a ring around the "wind"caves before finally settling on a (very busy) spot to examine the tafoni. WalruZ has sent the email for all of us, and here is our GPS photo... Thanks for the Earthcache!

Funky Snack Shack

By: IrishJen Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro

Came by after picking Geo Baby up from "school" for some time at the playground and a cache. Lotd of places for a nano-ish container around here, so after a scan of easy spots for me to twist to view (not an easy feat these days), I looked up the hint to narrow down the search (aka bending) area. TFTC.

Meet & Greet After The 4th

By: DavidT21 & Fisherwoman Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Not chosen

Wasn't expecting to make it, but we left Monterey in plenty of time for a nap and a smiley! Thanks for the event.

#64

By: n2books2 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro

I waddled on over with the group after pizza and got the smiley. When we were en route, I figured this was the old one that I'd found before, but to my surprise it was someplace different. TFTC.
