After a good night’s sleep on a soft bed and a room at a good sleeping temperature, we were ready for breakfast around 8 AM. Started out on today’s plan to get 16 challenge geocaches that were in a large circle reached by driving to the designated coordinates and walking a short distance to find the container. Gary drove, operated the camera while Joyce walked to claim the prizes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We departed the hotel around 8:45 am for the drive to the first cache.\u00a0 Oops, we went the direction on the circle making caches across the road instead if on the right. Starting temp about 81\u00b0 F, last cache found with temps of 89\u00b0 F.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the 15 caches….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As it was nearing lunchtime, we decided to explore the Chinsegut Hill Historical site. See https:\/\/www.trailoffloridasindianheritage.org\/chinsegut-hill-historic-site\/<\/a> for details. We completed a virtual geocache, enjoyed the old live oak trees on the property and had lunch under the shade of a tree in the parking lot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Returned to our hotel around 1:45 PM. Joyce took a swim in the hotel’s salt water outdoor pool. Gary joined poolside to visit. As we had planned to join Joyce’s sister Carolyn for dinner, we drove to her house around 4 PM. We were excited to see some of her children (Dennis) (and\/or spouses – Hayleigh) while we exchange stories and history of our lives. Then it was on to dinner at the Fisherman’s Cove Restaurant where we were served by Ally (Allyson), girlfriend of Dennis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
