Re-stocking our geocache

Yesterday we went to re-stock the geocache we hid this past spring at the Lowell Preserve in Windham. It was a little muddy on the trail with all the rain we had the day before but that made the "fun stones" on the trail even more entertaining for the kids.

Don't fall in the lake, L. yelled to me while she was jumping around the stones.

The geocache was pretty well stocked so we only added a few new items, including a Travel Bug. Over 40 people have visited the cache and wrote in the log book since we hid the cache in June. That's a lot more people than logged their visits online but some first-time geocachers noted in the log book that they used the cache's treasure map instead of a GPS. I'm guessing the newbies weren't familiar with the geocaching.com website yet.

No matter. The kids and I enjoyed reading the cache's log and recognizing some familiar names. The kids thought people had left some "really cool trades" so I have to say thanks to everyone who has visited and taken such good care of our cache!
