Reperio 12:51Day 2 of our trip to Wagga Wagga, and Master Vitruvius and I camped out a Oura for the night. Given it was a weekday, we stayed out of the city area until later in the day, and instead went searching for caches out of town, most of which were nice drive by caches.We moved on to the Pub Crawl series, following with some W2T and T2W caches, and then a host of other caches along the way before heading back into Wagga Wagga to camp for the night. A great day of caching.Gratias RoostamanAs a well spent day brings happy sleep, a well spent life brings happy death - LDV

09-Feb-20
I DNF this cache today, I couldn’t figure out which side of the fence I needed to be on! I kept going back and forth! I was there for so long I decided to sit on the ground, have a drink and think about my options. It was then that a muggle man came over and asked if I was okay and if my car was in fact mine. He had thought I had either broken down or gotten lost!!! After having him notice me, I had to leave pretty quickly.
