Number 75

This was an interesting virtual cache that took you on a tour of things around downtown that you had to look up to see. We had seen them all before, but it was still a fun little cache. Again, no picture, but maybe I'll be able to snap one in the near future of my favorite of the local landmarks...his nose will soon be lit!

First Virtual


There are many different types of caches, and though we usually do the traditional caches where there is a container of some type and an actual log book, we recently did our first virtual cache. On this one you had to follow the coordinates to a park and from there answer some questions to get the coordinates to the actual cache location.


We actually cheated a bit though since we already knew where the cache was located. It's the world's smallest park, and it's smack in the middle of the street that runs along the Willamette River downtown. I've been wanting to see this park for years, and geocaching finally brought me here! We had a travel bug with an Irish theme, so we took it along with us on this hunt.


We didn't want to miss the pleasure of seeing the homeless sleeping in the first park though, so we did visit the first place where the coordinates took us to, even though we didn't need to get the information from there!
