WOO-HOO! Today I joined up with good friend and Caching buddy Benji59. Our prime directive was to collect as many of these Challenge Caches that we either qualified for, or were very close. Happy to report I do indeed qualify for this one! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, the new Challenge Caches, thanks to CO Lasouthpaw for cooking up these fun hides for us to find and or continue to work on. TFTC!

I joined forces today with GeoDog74 as we hit up these challenges and some lonely caches out on the plains. Will log as found when I confirm I qualify.

After using the challenge checker and discovering that GanderGoose had nine qualifying caches, Spartacus Geodog and I went for a ride on the plains. There was utter peace, beautiful vocalization of songbirds, and the nine caches. On the way back north, we saw a beautiful pronghorn couple on the road and passed by one cacher. Thanks for the placement, lasouthpaw!
Qualifying information: GanderGoose fulfills challenge A Plain Cache #17: the Unexpected Challenge (GCA8DW4) according to https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCA8DW4/77633. 515 other size cache finds.

[FTF] 5-13-2023 at 6:03 pm. Smooth ride on a dry road, but rain has replaced phone reception. Still found this without a problem. But do I qualify? Yup:

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!
