Day 240: Five years. That's how long it's been since I went geocaching (not counting CITOs and one related event). Even then, I had only been picking up the occasional cache when I travelled out of my immediate area. Gas prices were on the rise, and I'd found almost everything in the immediate vicinity, so I decided it was time to step back. I let my membership lapse, and I pulled all of my own caches (largely because I didn't want to leave a legacy of little bits of plastic in the woods if I should happen to keel over dead), but I missed the activity. After our Park CITO at the end of May, I thought, "Surely there must be some new caches, nice ones, by now? Why don't I join up again?" So I did. Today while going out for groceries, I looked for and found three, two of which were reasonably interesting. The third one was here at tiny Dogwood Park, a very predictable hide in the brushy back corner, redeemed by having pinpoint-accurate coordinates. And that said, no matter how many times I see it, this is one view which never gets old.
