Sitting here listening to the rain beating on the windows
it’s hard to believe a week ago we enjoyed such amazing weather – perfect for
our trip to the State Capital! TaGeez
and I had been planning this trip for awhile because one of our JASMER
caches was sitting snug as a bug in the Woldumar Nature Center (plus we’re
History geeks). In addition to this oldie are a series of Virtuals and
Challenge caches waiting to be discovered!
I don’t want to give too much away (because there are Virtuals involved) so here’s a pictorial
tour of our day. Our first stop was the Woldumar Nature Preserve just West of Lansing.

| First stop: Woldumar Nature Preserve GC2A8B - November 2001 |
 |
| Nice find! And look at all that greenery at his feet! Good thing he's immune! |
 |
| 2 Michelin Men and my Wimpy Kid stopped for a visit! |
 |
| Who's watching you? |
Lovely, isn't it? Midway through our "Virtuals", we stopped into the Capital Building for a little shade and a lot of beauty. If you approach the reception desk, they give you a booklet and tell you to start on the 3rd floor.
The State of Michigan Capitol Building is famous for being the only U.S. Capital with a glass floor!

| TaGeez and scrapcat on the famous glass floor! |
It must be time to get out of the sun and get a cool coffee drink! We're seeing red T-Rexes now!
Back to the last of the Virtuals and a few cemeteries before heading out into the sunset.

| Eureka Cemetery - home of MLT Eureka GCC31D had some unique Zinc stones onsite |
Our totals for this trip:
* Adding 300 miles to my car for 25 finds in 12 hours
* Those finds include 1 JASMER cache (Nov 2001), 12 Virtuals, 6 challenges, 2 SQ's and 1 MLT
* Along the way we spotted 3 deer, used 6 parking meters, walked on 1 glass floor, stared at a giant lugnut & a giant red T-Rex, and was attacked by 1 angry apple
* Sharing our adventure were 2 Michelin Men and 1 Wimpy Kid trackables
