Sunny, 55-60°F. Unseasonably warm day. I went geocaching in Woodstown / Pilesgrove, not too far away, and I was able to do the first 4 geocaches in sandals. Those were roadside caches or nearly so. Needed shoes for the 5th cache, "Crockett Heights", though because it was a bit further into the woods. Today was a day when I wasn't feeling too well, but it wasn't apparent until after the 5th cache. So I had to stop at McDonald's in Woodstown to do something about it. While there, I had BBQ and Ranch Chicken Snack Wraps.

After that, I ventured out further to Mullica Hill, Pitman, and Sicklerville. I was thinking of going to Bok Bok Fresh after the last cache of the day because I had some coupons but I'd forgotten that they're closed on Sunday. Yes, Bok Bok Fresh is Christian-owned so that is the reason, but I'm not local to Sicklerville, so the practice of closing on Sunday reduces my chances of going there by half. Instead, I went to the old reliable Plan B: Long John Silver's in Mantua. I had Fish and More. On the way home, I decided to make a short detour into downtown Wilmington to the Wilmington train station to try to find the "DeRRH04-The only one left in Wilmington" geocache at night. My guess was parking would not be a problem late Sunday night and that was correct. I was able to park very close to the cache site. The area was quiet and I found the fake rock quickly.

The caches... )

Cloudy, 43°F. There's actually more to the story from yesterday that I failed to write about, but in the interest of not being too long-winded, I'm just going to start with: I woke up late. Now, the early bird would've left already and so the late bird got the worm. So I had a bit of business to take care of this morning. By the time I was done, it was noon. Seeing as how I wasn't going to get in a full day of geocaching, I made a last-minute decision to go to the Bok Bok Fresh Gathering in Sicklerville.

That was a Where's George gathering, not geocaching or furry. I hadn't been to a WG gathering in at least a few years (not counting my recent meetup with Rich and Christine) so I was surprised that I still remembered some of the WG regulars and they still remembered me. I'd never been to Bok Bok Fresh before, so I didn't know what to expect. It's a yuppie luncheon, in the same league as Panera Bread in terms of pricing. I had a Bok Bok Original sandwich with sweet potato fries. At the end of the gathering, there was a game of LCR, but using dollar bills instead of chips. I didn't play; just watched.

After the gathering, I headed out to grab a few geocaches. Since I've been to this area a bunch of times already, there weren't too many geocaches left to find. So for the first cache, I drove about 7 miles out from Bok Bok Fresh to Hope You Do Well, which is near the Hopewell Cemetery. Then I went to Tire Graveyard and SJG Birthday Prize Cache, which is about all that I had time for before dusk. All in all, it was an interesting day.
