May the sun bring you new energy by day,
May the moon softly restore you by night,
May the rain wash away your worries,
May the breeze blow new strength into your being.
May you walk through the world and know its beauty all the days of your life.

70 degree Perfection - Hiking & Geocaching


Mr. Bosseh-Pants (my hiking buddy) using his new GPS to get close to the geocache.


Found it - now to reach it... it's about 10 feet off the ground.
(By the way, I think this is a bad, bad, bad place to put a geocache. Mother Nature is going to put the smack-down one someone eventually).


The geocache is in a tiny hole in the saguaro.


Mr. Bosseh-Pants got it!


Me.


One of two helicopters we saw, I think this is an R44.

A treasure I traded from a geocache. I'm guessing this is stainless steel made with a water jet cutter.


When I took the turtle, I left four Army men and a pup to protect them.


Saw this stuffy laying in the middle of the desert, no clue what it was doing there besides looking sorry. I thought of taking it home, giving it a bath and giving it to my dog, but I left it near where I'd found it.


Sitting on top of the East side of Westwing Mountain, sometimes there is water behind the dam.


A unique feature on Westwing Mountain - lichen covered rocks and quartz.
