The Back Roads, Woods, of Indiana and Illinois

Here is our first grab, early this morning. 400 miles and 12 hours. We grabbed a bunch of caches.

Look what we found.

Three cemetaries early this morning. Some interesting markers in these old cemetaries.


There she goes.

Teri always finds her cache.

How cool is this bridge. Indiana has more covered bridges than any state I know of.


Yep, there she is again, in the woods. It was cold up there in Indiana this morning. Check the tracker for wd0afq-1 and you can see where we were.

Our second grave yard this morning. We were on 63 Hiway.

In the woods again. Was too cold for the ticks and chiggers to be out of bed yet.

Another covered bridge. This one is not driven on like the one above.

Just can't keep the girl out of the woods.


Grabbed these shots in Parris, Il.

We were really tearing this town up when we lost the internet. Seems it was the netbook. After we left town I rebooted it and we were back in buisness.

This is one large building at the Du Quoin State Fairgrounds. Check out the mirror.

Oh yea, she is in there.

Jonesboro, Il. Pretty famous debate here.

Check out that post.

Now, look again. This was a real cool hide.

Our last one of the day.

See where it was hidden, under the picnic table. A mag mount stuck to the concrete rebarb. Just before we crossed the river at Cape Girardeau.
Wow, what a day. Teri and I really enjoyed this ride. What a way to see places off the beaten path. It really is not as much about finding the caches but seeing the places. We are pushing 300 finds now. Teri is ready to hide several around Dexter.
Got in about 7 pm. We left Logansport at 7 am, Mo. time. Normally a 7 hour drive. I have already looked at some other roads we can take the next time we visit our daughter.
Thanks for riding along. Now back to figuring out what in the world is wrong with our motorhome transmission. I am thinking it should last longer than 3300 miles.
