JAN 29, Friday, Geo-Caching
Today was a cloudy day but warm. Renald and Louise came over for coffee and we said our goodbyes. They left around 10 am.
Mel and Lorna came over to invite us for geo-caching so we went with them. We completed the caches on Canyon Rd then we went into another canyon. In all we found 14 new caches. We also took them to some we had found and showed them.
We came home around 4 pm and I took Tucker out for his walk while Val got the dinner ready, a stir-fry. Mel and Lorna came over for dinner and we had a very evening together. Mel and I got my GPS hooked up to the computer so that I can upload caches to it rather than make manual entries. It took us a while but we got it going. They went home around 10 pm and we went to bed. A very good day indeed.
JAN 30, Saturday, Desert Hot Springs
Val went to see the arts& Craft in the park while I went with Reg and Pat to find a cache on top of a local mountain. It was a tough climb in the beginning but levelled out after a while. We did find that cache then came back down and found another on the way down and one more about .5 mile away which ended up to be another climb a steep incline but we did find it. We came home tired but feeling good about our finds.
Val and I went into town to get some milk and a couple other things and we went to find a cache that Mel had sent to me. It was a very big container with cement on the bottom so that people wouldn’t walk away with it. It contained all kinds of things. We signed it off then came home.
A quiet evening at home and early to bed
JAN 31, Sunday, shopping at College in the Desert
We went to Palm Desert to the College of the Desert with Reg and Pat, a couple from BC. On the way down, we stopped at a cache that we had found before so that Reg and Pat could enjoy it then we went to the flea market. Yes, College of the Desert is a big flea market selling shoes, clothing, arts, Mexican metal works and many other things. It is open only on Saturday and Sunday, 7 am to 2 pm. Even Tucker came with us and enjoyed meeting all kinds of others from his brotherhood.
From here we went to find another 3 caches then came home and had happy hour at Pat and Reg’s rig.
It was another good day and a great month; busy and fun!

Claude & Val, Nice to come across our blog. Enjoyed your picasa album and hearing about your travels. I remember you from San Antonio at Hidden Valley RV Park. You stayed at our park for a short time in 2009 I believe. Enjoy the remainder of your trip and I look forward to keeping up with your tour.
