Geocaching

South Llano River State Park has three geocaches. We were only able to locate two, because one is in an area that is currently closed to protect wild turkey roosts. After lunch we got the bikes down and set off to find the other two.  One was at an overlook point, and the road up was posted "no bicycles" so we had to walk up. Good exercise, and a nice vista. 



The cache was in an ammo box hidden under a plant.
















The other was relatively easy to find in the walk-in camping area. It was a small coffee can covered by camouflage tape--well concealed. We haven't done any geocaching in some time, and found that our earlier account had been purged, so we started a new one (nleemarks).
















Earlier we spent some time at a bird blind where we saw a number of sparrows, cardinals, a pair of wild turkeys, and some reddish birds we think were house finches.

Texans seem to be good at building bird blinds.



















It rained last night, and some of the windows were dirty, so we started out to clean them. One thing led to another and we ended up wiping down the truck and the rig.

We played our Clans game that had been so rudely interrupted last night when I spilled my drink all over it. Ken won. That's what I get for knocking over my drink--I was whipping his butt last night....
