Adventures with geocaching

She awoke early. We are picking up friends. She has a day of adventure planned. "Let's take them hiking to the trail near home, we haven't been there in a long time, let's go geocaching." 
Awesome, I love the ideas spawned in the mind of a forest child!



We have geocached this spot several times but it is still exciting. Now I realize that even though it has been 7 months since are last time searching here she can now find the spots, hidden off the trail, without the GPS. Forest skills functioning great!




Today, with the start of spring there was lots more to discover too! 

A vernal pool



Complete with thousands of frog eggs!


The green is eggs


Stennis,  the dog, even joined in on the hunt. He found a rabbit skull and carried it over to us.


On the way out


We were treated by the fairies with a magical spotting of one of their forest homes!



Now the whole crew


heads out to our secret garden for a picnic lunch.
