Sept. 25, 2013

We had our predicted rainy morning, so I thought it was a good time to do laundry, so we can get out in the sunshine tomorrow.  People in our park are getting a little nervous, because there is talk of snow in the mountains, but we aren't worried about it.  We are west of the Continental Divide and the valley is going to get rain, but the mountains east of us, will get snow.  I did see where Glacier National Park closed Logan's Pass today, due to the snow amounts.  They also closed St. Mary's campground to tent campers, due to the increased bear activity in that area.  We hiked there last week!  Being that today was a quiet day, I will show you some of the geo-caches that we have found on our trip.  These people are very clever with their hides, and it is sometimes difficult to find the cache.  The caches each have their own title and sometimes, it's a clue to where it is.  We enjoy geo-caching, because it takes us to some very interesting places, where we travel.
Tomorrow we hope to get out and do the things that we waited for a nice day for, and then we leave for Idaho on Friday. 

This was at a Case Dealership and the name of the cache was 'Get Off my Case'.  It is the bottom round container, that had a magnet on it and the log we signed, was inside.

We didn't sign this one!  Can you see why?  It was loaded with wasps.  It's a fake electrical box.

This person, took the insides out of a padlock and placed a plastic tube with the log inside.

A piece of bark was glued to the plastic container protecting the log from the elements. It was then placed in the tree, in a cozy spot.


This stick was about 15" long and a hole was drilled in the end to hold the plastic container.  It was then placed in the crotch of a tree that had many sticks in it.

The plastic container was placed in a drilled hole in this stick in the 'burl' and placed amongst many other sticks in the crotch of a clump of trees.
