Activity = happiness and exercise with the family is a very important social activity and reason enough for me to get away from the computer at times. Geocaching is a hobby my little one has taken up and is a great way to show some more outdoor activity here on STEEMit and encourage others to get out and get moving. I also love to support who pioneered the #walkwithme tag and has a nice STEEMit movement going (See what I did there?)
As a review, I pour a beverage into a water bottle, grab the dog and head out for a nice walk on the hunt for Geocaches with my little one and snap photos along the way for your entertainment.
Here is the projected adventure for today and you can see many grayed out caches that are available when you get the paid for-app. We have collected $4.126 SBD so far (through generous upvotes here) towards the purchase of the full app for my little one and she is pretty excited.
Again, the dog doesn't appear to love the car very much but I can assure you she enjoys accompanying us.
It is a nice autumn day around 15 Celsius which is sweater weather down by the water in town.
Really gets the feet moving.
It is a nice 500 meter walk to the first one from our parking spot so I get to snap a few nice shots.
I am a sucker for texture and keep seeing colour challenges on STEEMit. The shades in here are so subtle and overwhelmed by the landscape that I might be able to get away with this one in the black and white challenge.
You kinda feel small among some of these willows.
We have found the first one and I actually pick it out from 50 meters away across some water. This one is rated as small but has some neat stuff in it. We left a small bag of screws and wall plugs and took a marble.
The walking is great and so is the tree wrestling.
We hit a couple other ones which were sprinkled about the neighbourhood where the trees are showing signs of autumn and the maples are coating the ground.
Not a sign of the apocalypse but tragedy nonetheless as we found the remains of a noble growler from the local brewery which seems to have met an unceremonious end.
A little more tree wrestling as another micro is housed in a cedar.
We struggled to find the last one and that took her phone down to 1% battery power so it was time to take a couple shots on the way back to the car along the water again.
Lessons learned include the fact we should be bringing a pen on us during these adventures, most people out on a walk in nature tend to be happy and friendly in this town, and almost any reason is a good one to be out on a walking adventure.
