A really nice thing about geocaching is that it brings you to places you never even knew existed. Finding this cache took us on a little trail right next to my old elementary school and although I'd walked by several times as a kid and driven by it hundreds of times as an adult, I never even noticed it was there :)
After parking on a side street Elisa, Gus Gus, and myself went on a short hike to find this cache. Gus Gus loves these trail hunts and looks for all the little animals (from lizards to birds) to terrorize. Good thing we keep him on a leash otherwise he'd probably chase them into the brush. When we finally got near the cache, the radar pointed into the direction of lots of sharp thistle. We had to be very careful extracting the cache from its hiding spot but it was well worth it because inside we found our very first Travel Bug! This trackable item originated in New York and has since traveled to Florida, New Jersey, Texas & California. We'll be sure to keep it moving. For more info on this particular item, see the following link: Green Smart Car Travel Bug
We also picked up from this cache 1- "Bitten By The GeoBug" pin and 1- "Great Job" pin while leaving behind a coupon for the San Diego Museum of Man, another spikey toy ball, and a ring stamp.
