Saturday in Yuma

Saturday was a busy day, starting with an event at 8:00 AM and ending with one at 7:00 PM. We tired to meet a geocacher from TX, Janice, but she was hard to find in the gathering of a couple of hundred others.

Where are you JVET?

At 8:30 we all got the info we needed and headed out without finding Janice. We did touch base by cell phone and in a parking lot and made a plan to find the 20 specific geocaches.

We found geocaches in the countryside to the north and east of Yuma, an area Hubby and I had been to when we attended the SWAG event in 2014. See that blog post here.

We found our assigned caches and took time to check out other caches and take photos, because Sherry asked so nicely!  

the Bridge to Nowhere on the other end

McPhal Bridge

"This is the Bridge to Nowhere. It was built in 1929, is 800' long but was considered too weak for modern vehicles. When a dam was built upstream in 1968, the river was rerouted, making the bridge obsolete." 

I  know we walked on the bridge in 2014. That was not possible now.
