Out for a short ride today and decided to let this series guide my path. TFTC!

11:27 AM Today we stopped at the farmer's market, as is our custom. We ran into our friends from Carroll Lakes, who had children and grandchildren in tow. We had a little field lab about geocaching at Memorial Park and bid the kids safe travel back to Dallas.

Then we came to Lovell Gulch to do an easier hike after a hard day yesterday. Swapped trackables.

I signed the log. Adding a favorite point.

Thank you, 3 Williams Kidz, for the geocache.

Doing this backwards, so that should be interesting...

It was very cloudy and overcast this morning and I had a little trouble reading my GPS. It took me a little while to find this cache and of course, I left the Geo-pup at home. She would have helped. Found GZ. Coordinates were right on. I sat and took a break and people walked by and most didn't even notice me there. Okay. Another nice hide by the 3WK. On to the last one.

I have to compliment the CO on the amazing graphics on each of the cache pages. Really well done. I DO remember where this cache was. Coords right on as always. Great series

The last one before heading to the final. Several groups passed by in the trail nearby as we were searching and then plotting our route to the final. Great hide, as they all were! Great series!

TFTC I am off to the final.

All was in good order.

Nice hide. Somebody had left a note inside with the code for the final. We did remove it. We swapped out one trackable for another one. Tftc.
