Logged Homestead - Part I a long time ago. It was a good bit harder than II, requiring a lot more imagination to get the correct answers. Emailing answers to owner today.

Smithj9 and I left Fort Collins early to take a drive and cache through Poudre Canyon down to Grand Lake. We saw all kinds of neat places and learned a lot about the history of the area on our way. Thanks for placing and maintaining these caches for us to enjoy while visiting from Florida.
This was a very interesting Virtual. Smithj9 and I drove around town looking for information, and spent some time with the "Sage" learning about the history of this family and the area. Lots of fun!

It only took me 13 years to do this cache. I did part 1 in 2003 when my son was a student at CU Boulder. I did not get passing grade at that time. Fast forward to Geowoodstock 14 and I am back in Colorado for a week of caching. I did all the work for part 2 and tried ti improve my score for part one. I was only partly successful again, but was close enough to claim this one. Amazing what you can learn about a town through geocaching. Thanks Tahosa for being so patient with me. I will be back for more of your virtual caches.

On the road with Lindy4 and rm22kern on our Geowoodstock XIV journey. Grabbed this smiley while caching in Cheyenne. Definitely earns a favorite point. GREAT place to stretch your legs and enjoy some really magnificent scultures. THANKS for bringing us to this very unique location. Answers and photo to follow. THANKS for all that YOU do for our game to keep it fun and interesting. Happy hunting and great caching.

THANKS to all of the Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, Law Enforcement, Fire Protection, EMS and all of the other first responders; who work so we can play.
