It has become a tradition for me to host a geocaching event to end the current year or to welcome the new one. This year was my seventh event on either the 31st of December or the 1st of January. The temperature at 9:00 in the morning was a bit chilly, but the sun was shining. Hubby and I furnished donuts for those attending the Hello 2025 event at Flatiron Park in Apache Junction. Providing donuts is a small thank you to the area geocachers for placing geocaches and to thank them for supporting my events.

Ending 2024 ~ Some Geocaching
We ended 2024 by going geocaching with friends, Jon and Sherry. We had (and have, as there are more of them) geocaches by two area geocachers, abeNanna and CacheFamily on our radar. abeNanna are known for their geocaches often titled 'Rusting Away.' You guessed it; the caches usually involve a rusted piece of metal. CacheFamily, a family of 4, have recently started placing gadget and creative geocaches in the area. Both cachers attended my October event sharing conversations and information. December 30th was the day we chose to follow-up on their suggestions.

Some Time in the Desert
We headed to the desert on Friday for a bit of geocaching. Other than attending some events, we had not geocached in AZ since arriving the end of October.

Some This and That Around Barcelona
I planned to post photos of doors we saw as we explored Barcelona, but decided to add some other interesting things we noticed.
