Into the Woods again

 Hello, everyone!

Guess what I've been doing... again?

Yup! Treasure Hunting!!

It's good exercise and fun!

This time we went to Fanghorn Forest!

Have you ever heard of that?

Heather had, and she laughed and tried to warn me about Ents, but...

I have no idea what she was talking about.

We actually went the wrong way, and ran into a river.

Then we had to backtrack until we found a bridge to cross over it.

There were some trees that had fallen across the river, and I *totally* could have made it, 

but Heather was all like, "Noooo, it's dangerous"

She has no sense of adventure.

When we weren't going the wrong way, there was a path to follow... right up until the very end.

Then we had to "off-road" it into the woods!

"Help!"

The way became fraught with perils, and I was almost lost!

Then Heather said she'd carry me and it was all ok.

VICTORY!!!! This was our first Ammo Box find! It was bigger and had really cool, waterproof log books in it! I took a dinosaur from this box, and left behind some buttons with Kana on them!

I wonder if Kana knows she's famous in the Geocaching world now?

This was Heather's favorite note in the notebook... it cracked her up.

She made me post this picture.

This cache had been there since 2004!

People have been treasure hunting for quite a while!

And LOOK!

I even found a Morel to this story!

HAHA!

Intrepid Treasure Hunters!

Anna: Hello, everyone! Anna here, reporting from Heather's front coat pocket!

Me: Are you ok? You look a little frazzled...

Anna: Nope! Good to go! Get a move on, mule!

Me: 0_0

Anna: It's got to be here somewhere, it's just got to... it says we're only 6 ft away!

Me: Maybe you should let people know what you're doing, Anna?

Anna: Oh! I'm Treasure Hunting! Like... in that movie, National Treasure! I'm going to follow the clues and find lots and lots of sparkly treasure and then buy a house!

Me: Uhm... kind of. You're Geocaching. ( www.geocaching.com ) and yes... it is a treasure hunt, of sorts... so at least you're not wrong there.

Anna: I'm up so high, but I still don't see it! Maybe the treasure is a lie! A great family hoax!
We'll be laughing stalks!

Me: LOL, that's it, no more adventure movies for you... and we won't be laughing stalks, we'll be laughing stocks... if... you know... our family name's reputation was actually riding on this.

Anna: Oh, it is. *looks very serious*

Anna: *smacks gps* WHERE IS MY TREASURE!!!

Me: I think you just have to look harder.

Me: Maybe we should just give up... maybe there isn't any treasure after all... and it's raining. A lot.

Anna: NO WAIT! I found it!!!! I FOUND TREASURE!

Anna: Isn't it magnificent?!

Me: It's tupperware -_-

Anna: The treasure is INSIDE, dummy.

Anna: *gasp* Look at this bounty! We're RICH!

Me: Anna, you can't take it all... remember, you can only take out as much as you put in.

Anna: T_T

Me: Aww, don't be upset, look inside there, I see something pretty awesome for you! Plus...

Me: We have some cute little gifts to leave behind!

Anna: Yeah, our stuff is pretty cute... I hope people like it!

Anna: And you're right! This is the perfect treasure for me! This little light is just my size, and perfect for future treasure hunting! Every treasure hunter needs a good flashlight!

Me: Well done, Anna :)
