Pre-Fall or September before the 20th

 Book club discussions, coffee dates, chiropractic appointments, dermatology appointments, soccer games, and a wee bit of geocaching. And rest and recovery from the three week camping and caching adventure. That was the sum of the first three weeks of September. 


M's soccer games


he had three games


Hubby and I were each awarded an opportunity to create another Adventure Lab for geocaching. We each had already had two; his in Watertown and Florence AZ and mine in Sioux Falls and Superior AZ. We knew area geocachers would also be awarded another AL, so we quickly decided on our locations and began creating.

I chose De Smet, Little Town on the Prairie and home of Laura Ingalls Wilder and her family. It was a rainy dreary day for our visit to town. My photos are not some of my best, because of Mother Nature. I chose 5 locations important to Laura and the town.

Hubby chose Brookings as the location for his five Adventure Lab stops.


it rained all afternoon





the SDSU flower bed needs some TLC

We made a second trip to the communities a week later, but it rained that day,  too! So colorless sky photos it is! Both Adventure Labs are active and ready for geocachers.


Miss W had a couple of soccer games


more games for each of them next month

  1. Gotta love this time of year when things cool down and seem to be on the slower side. Congrats to your being awarded more ALs. Went there in 2004 and loved it all but then I grew up on those books like most girls my age did. Now I have another reason to go back. Hopefully next summer... The Grands are getting so big!
