Clever Waypoints

Gosh, where did March go. In like a lion and out like a lamb and no bloggings from me.
Sunday evening dh and I thought that as we had the extra light we would have another go at a geocache that we could'nt find the second waypoint for, and yes I did put a note to that effect on the page.
I got a nice email from the placers with a further clue so even though it was somewhere I thought I'd already looked...
Even with the clue it took a while to find the co-ordinates for the next waypoint, very clever use of existing signs. The next wps were all different and very clever but it was getting dark by the time we found the fifth one, not knowing if the next was going to be the cache or yet another wp we decided that going on was not a good idea and turned back. As we were walking along a trail by a lake it had not only got dark but also had that damp misty feeling and there were bats flying around us too. we set a good pace and were very relieved to get back to the car!!
We plan to finish the cache on Wednesday evening, luckily it's in a beautiful area with lots of birds to watch so well worth a third visit!
