MGA15 Picnic - Lake Erie Metropark

Just wanted to share some pictures of the latest MGA15 (Metropark/Michigian Geocaching Adventure) picnic in September. It was an absolutely stunning day in my favorite Huron Metropark. TaGeez and I spent the day with WikidKriket and friends.

Bet you can't guess what we're looking for!

Alona Spiegel and Team Gates are good sports

Nothing keeps him out of trouble, though.

After a lovely morning of geocaching and potlucking, we headed out to several of the nearby Huron Metroparks for additional MGA caching.

Funny postscript to our day:

At the end of the potluck, we tiredly left the park leaving our chairs behind. The Seed Spreaders sent us a ransom note! All in good fun, and they were kind enough to drive up to Southfield and drop them off. Geocachers are the best people!

Scrapcat on the Erie Trail

LOVE this picture TaGeez took of me on Sunday at Lake Erie Huron Metropark!


So relaxed... love it!

MGA14: Lake Erie Metropark Adventure


Fall in Michigan – can’t beat it!  We’re so lucky that we can get out and enjoy these golden days.

If it wasn't for geocaching, I'd never have walked down that trail to this....
Out with members of Team Free Range Lobsters doing the MGA2014 – Lake Erie, Good and Evil Coexist GC51ZBY cache.  Today’s group consisted of myself, TaGeez, WikidKriket, SnakeyLicks and Fiona-the-wonder-geo-pup!  Love the annual Metropark series!

TaGeez and Kriket know I don't like bridges - brats!

One of the most gorgeous views


Not too cold for this wonderpup!

After finding the cache, we drove over to the beach near the wave pool. Cold but beautiful.  The sun was setting too fast.

This takes care of #10.  Only 3 more to go, and then we have to wait another year.
