Michael wasn't feeling well so we decided to leave him at home yesterday for some quiet get well time while we took the rambunctious out to burn off some steam! We had a goal; to reach our 300th cache! Walking out the door, that meant we had to do 6 more caches. And meet that goal we did!!
3 caches were done at Lake Anna State Park. Despite living here for just over 4 years, we have never made it up (over) there. Nikolas decided that that was to be our destination. Granny had chopped up some veggies for us and sandwiches were picked up from Tropical Smoothie. We ate our picnic lakeside in quite the gusty wind. Then we set off along the lake's edge to our first cache! Three caches later and it was time to head home, the sun was sinking further and further down towards the horizon and those windy twisty country roads at break neck speed were not alluring in the dark.
Three more caches on our way home, the last of which got us to 300!! At the "Grubby kitty" of all places! A local grocery store chain known as Food Lion. Yipppeee!! Kids were happy. Nikolas in particular. I think Mia was rather indifferent to the whole affair. A big milestone for us!
We have had a lovely visit with the WrinkLee's!! Sad to have to say goodbye to them as they head back home... Back to school and our usual routine for us!
