mountain view

Well, we pulled off the freeway for the TB hotel...this one was just another minute or two up the road, and I'm a sucker for a view. Thanks for pointing it out!

"Beacon" of Light in the Lost Hills

"Valero" of value is more like it. Toughest part about it was dodging the folks napping in their car. ...the Lost Hills sound like a place I'd like to visit though. Maybe next time around!

End of the Road

We drove right up to it and made the quick find. There was a truck sitting outside a fence a little ways down the dirt road, but I'm not sure there was even anyone in the cab. The kids enjoyed the trading. TFTC.

On our way home from Disneyland, this one was just the ticket for some restless munchkins. TFTC!

Whew! For a moment or two I thought I was going to DNF this cache. Lots of places to look, and fortunately Mrs. mjp303 spotted it. Thanks.

Harris Ranch Micro

I found this just moments before a CHP rolled by. My hands smelled really pleasant afterwards! TFTC.

Goldstar Cache

A thankfully uneventful find after what happened at the other one across the street. TFTC.

I Hate I-5, Sleeping Giants

Just after I palmed the cache, this guy down on his luck walks up and tries to sell me his cell phone. He's broke and just needs a few bucks for gas money to get to Fresno. Either he's a smooth talker or I'm a softie because I gave him $20 and didn't even take the phone. After signing the log and putting the cache back I watched him give the same pitch to another traveller. Sigh. I hope he can live with himself; I know my conscience is clear. TFTC.

You need a break

Wow! This was one busy parking lot. I accidently bumped another car while opening my door. The guy honked at me, but didn't have the nerve to get out and have a look until I was across the way at the other cache. What a goober. TFTC.
