[FTF] 5-13-2023 at 5:43 pm. Such a beautiful day. I focus on oldest caches, so I was confident that I qualify. I do:

You have found 20 of 7 required caches.

Today was rough. I worked, but had to leave early with a migraine headache. After going home, taking medicine, and a 4 hour nap, I was mostly recovered. I headed to an event, then off to a powertrail of challenge caches. That was a blast involving rolling skies and powering through muddy roads. Afterward, I headed northwest and cached back into civilization. Another great day of caching in the books!
Thanks for the cache!
