Today was a geocaching day

One of our geocaching friends suggested doing a 20-cache series today, while the weather was still fairly clement and as my DS3 wasn't working today, we decided to give it a go. It sounded like a great little series, as a number of tools were required, like spanners, magnets, string, and a liter of water. Water? That turned out to be a really clever cache, actually. 7 1/2 miles later, we made it back home just as it was getting dark ( which is very early now that the clock have gone back again ). Feet and back are sore, but we did it, yay! 20 caches in the series, as well as an extra one which was close by.

But it didn't leave me any time to do my inchie for the Every Inchie Monday challenge or do any crafting. So instead, I posted a few little treasures on my Vintageland blog -

A gorgeous little French crown pin -

An Edwardian pocket size shoe horn and button hook set -

and a very collectable French 1930s hat pin -

And now I am just about ready to fall into bed, lol!
