T.C. Geo-Lunch

We started out the morning geocaching in Mother Gen's old backyard - no kidding! A cache has been hidden near the TART behind Gen's lot. We couldn't find it, so we'll have to go back. The other one we couldn't find was at the Civic Center - so we'll have to go back there too.

We met Frank and Peggy for lunch at Scott's Harbor Grill - we had a great time - sat and talked for two hours...very much fun indeed. The four of us have a lot in common - kids, geocaching, teaching, Ann Arbor, Boston, etc. We ran into Janet there, too. It really is a small town!

In the afternoon we went to Benzie County for two new caches, and we were FTF (First to Find) on both of them - so that kind of made up for the morning.

It was a beautiful day to be out and about - the weather has been very mild this week - we shed our jackets early. The bay was simply gorgeous - it's fun to see the ships at the Maritime Academy - the big one is docked there (The State of Michigan) along with two little tugs - a lot of local color.

We found a new place in Inland Township, Benzie County - Turtle Lake on Miller Road. It's quite small, but it's in an area that would be very pretty in the summer time. Just makes me want to place a turtle cache there! (see link above)
