Geocaching in the Bodega Bay area July 7th, 2012

For our last full day here in the Bodega Bay area, we decided to explore the area by doing some Geocaching. This brought some important information for us die-hard geocachers. If you want to geocache, don't rely on some light way application on your cell phone. You see, when you are in an area where the cell service doesn't work, like here in Bodega Bay, you won't be able to geocache yourself out of a wet paper bag! :-)

That's ok, since we have been geocachers from way back, we pulled the Magellan hand held GPS into service. After loading the coordinates for 8 different geocaches into the Magellan we set off for some High tech hide and seek. One of the caches was mapping out in the middle of the bay it self. It turns out that it was on a pier where you can walk out on. That one we couldn't find, because there were two many other people where the cache was. There was also another one at a gas station where there was just too much activity to find it. None the less, we had a wonderful time looking for all of these hidden treasures!

Half way through our adventures, we decided to have some lunch at the Spud Point Crab company. I had some wonderful clam chowder and Carol had a wonderful Crab cocktail!. We also shared some Sour dough bread and some yummy crab cakes!

This concludes our 5 day long get away to the coast so that we have enjoyed immensely. Every time we go some place new, we think about how much we want to return, and Bodega bay is no different. But, it also reminds us how many wonderful places in our country we have to explore in our future.

Thanks for reading, check back frequently for other updates.

Happy camping! Eric and Carol
