Bike riding and geocaching

David, Delaney and I rented bikes this morning to ride along the Cape Cod Rail Trail (CCRT).  It used to be a railroad, but has been converted to a hike and bike trail.  It was wonderful!  Mostly shady with big trees all along the trail.  A nice smooth and level, paved trail.  AND 6 geocaches within a short distance!  We rode a total of 6 miles (the full trail is 22 miles) and in the end we were 4 for 6.

The cache I had to really bush whack to reach!

This is the view toward the trail from the geocache sight.  David is in the distance, but can't really be seen in the photo.  I had to hike through thigh high berry bushes to reach the cache.  It was worth it though!  One of the tradeables was a very nice carved wooden box that Delaney loved!  We also picked up a plastic grasshopper as a trade-able from another cache.  We left behind several polished stones and nice sea shells that we bought in Provincetown the other day.

The magnetic nano cache we found on a fence post.  Delaney is holding the tiny log sheet and cache container.

After striking out twice with finding caches with supposed travel bugs, we finally found one where it was supposed to be. This is Venom who is seeking other caches with superheros that he can do battle with.  We'll bring him home with us and find him another cache to visit.
