There we sat ready. Loaded in the car on our way to reach our second Geocaching milestone. Our 200th find. We were at 197 when we began the day. A carefully laid plan would take us to a great #200 hidden somewhere under the city of Fayetteville NC. The day started with an ever so creative hide of one ABNDaddy(a Ft. Bragg, Fayetteville, Spring Lake superstar) My crew and I made quick work of this one and moved on to 199. This hide would prove to be a great warm up to the ultimate goal. As we stood on the outside of a rather full drainage tube my strength began to waiver. "Do I really want to climb through that...uh...stuff to sign a log"? OF COURSE I DO!!! Now the next question, "who is going with me"? Morgan didn't hesitate a wink, "I'll go Dad". So off we went. 100 feet of crawling for me and squatted walking for her we got to the hide, signed the log, and headed out! Wet smelly feet would prove to be the theme of the day as we tackled some hides of the ever challenging "e6c" of the "Dirtbag Geocaching Society" (you can find them on youtube) Now for find 200! GC243PH DGS: The Underground Art Exhibit was our target! Yet another climb through a delicious smelling tube of god knows what to find a hide and sign a log. This one carried a twist. After a 50 meter crawl we got to the cache which contained only paint markers. The log was the tube itself! We signed with the team name(see pic above) snapped a couple pics and headed back. My team never ceases to amaze me. From my fearless 3 year old to my tech savvy 12 year old. The Munky Crew cannot be stopped. Where one goes we all follow. We are one in the same, treasure hunters, explorers, modern day pirates, Geocachers!
