Country Road Caches

Cachers all know the extreme variety of caches that can be found on any given day. Me personally, I love to find myself driving out into the country nabbing all the country road caches that I can find. With that said, I am very allergic to poison ivy so the only time I really venture out into the woods is the winter time. This gives me the unique opportunity to see the world from the country point of view. Some cachers may complain because this type of caching can put a lot of miles on the car, but I take full advantage of it. Sure, half of the country caches are bridge and cemetery finds, but even some of those are real cool. Plus, I have visited cemeteries in which I would have never stepped foot in otherwise. There are some real interesting old graves out there in this country, trust me. Another reason I love it so much is the serenity it brings. There are not very many muggles out to disturb me while I search for cachers. Besides the scarce passerby, I am alone out in the country and have my peace to cache. Don’t get me wrong, I love to cache anywhere, but if I had to choose a full day of country caching or everything else, I would probably pick the back roads. Erin and I have had so many awesome experiences on them that I have already lost count. From the cache entitled, “Baby Doll”, that actually was a baby doll’s head on a pole (I know it sounds disturbing, but it was not) to the numerous cemeteries with grave stones dating back to the mid 1800s. There is never a dull moment out there even when you are just driving. If you have yet to experience a day like this I highly recommend you schedule one as soon as the weather warms up and you are up for an adventure. Let me know how it goes.
