Check out these cool coins

Here are some pics of the cool coins from the E.T. Highway event. The guys responsible for the events, yes three separate events, really had some neat things set up for all of us to do along with the thousand caches, an alien hunt, coins, pins, you name it were Clay 4 and Whitewolfden. We had a great time out among the "Aliens"

Hunting Aliens

Aliens have invaded the ET Highway and wanted to get in on the geocaching craze. There are 1000 caches along this stretch of the Extraterrestrial Highway.

We arrived in Alamo to check into our room (There's an interesting story there too) then on to Rachel to join in on the fun there, well part of it anyway. the two guys responsible for the Events had actually set up so much fun stuff I didn't feel like I could do it all. We bought two coins to commemorate the events (and because I thought they were cool) and went back to the room for the night. next morning back out to the highway to begin the actual caching, there were only 1000 caches to do, well I only was able to do 100 with Dendras support, then back for a nap and then dinner with Norm and Angie. tommorow we will try for maybe another 100 and then head home with the intent to return soon for more!

FlagStone The final day

Tuesday dawned kinda cold and windy, off we went to Flagstone claim. When we got there I was kinda unsure what course to take, whether to go back to the hotel and wait for warmer weather or try to get some of the claims we could drive up to. Originally I had volunteered Colt and Levi to do the dreaded long hike here while Dendra and I did the long ride around to 8,9,10 claims, both of them would be cold and even more uncomfortable with the wind blowing. It was decided that we would indeed drive to the easy ones and wait for the weather to moderate somewhat to do the ugly hike/ride. after reporting in with the Quarry manager all went really well and we got done in great time and off to the Hotel. As soon as we got there Dendra had a shower to return some of the dirt, well as we needed the restrooms etc. we found there was no water in the south tower where we were staying and would not have water for at least two days. They offered to move us over to the other tower, but after some consideration we decide if we were going to pack up we might as well go home. All this was at about 5:30 in the afternoon, so off we went home, all in all a good trip and way nice to be home. one stop in Mesquite for supper and home by 10:30, we were very blessed to have a good trip, accomplish the things we needed to do and more, all while having a good time with loved ones.
