I have a really hard time passing up a virtual cache, I guess you could say I'm a virtual junkie.  The challenge requirements:  Find 7 virtual caches, each with a different terrain rating. (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 , 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5 terrain)  At least it's not all 9!  I meet the requirements for this challenge.

Happy Memorial Day Everybody! Well, I'm one combo short on this one. But that's okay, it gives me another goal to work towards. Loving these new hides, I added my name to the log and will circle back when I officially qualify.

I joined forces today with GeoDog74 as we hit up these challenges and some lonely caches out on the plains. I'm still a few short on this one.

[FTF] 5-13-2023 at 5:37 pm. I didn't believe at all that I would qualify for this one. But somehow, I do. Spoke to a curious local named Bruce who was interested in my interest in the side of the road. I explained things to him and we chatted for a while. Nice guy! Here is the amazing proof that I qualify.

Today was rough. I worked, but had to leave early with a migraine headache. After going home, taking medicine, and a 4 hour nap, I was mostly recovered. I headed to an event, then off to a powertrail of challenge caches. That was a blast involving rolling skies and powering through muddy roads. Afterward, I headed northwest and cached back into civilization. Another great day of caching in the books!
Thanks for the cache!
