Geocaching and Kildonan Park pt.2

Good morning everyone.  I am back after a brief hiatus as I sort through some issues.  The desire to write wasn't there.  It is hard to do anything creative when the creative juices isn't happening.  Without further adieu, here is this week's fun fact.  The cache with the most log images in North Dakota is Painted Canyon Overlook (GC238GK) with 664 images so far.  Second place is Uncle John's (GCE835) with 398 and third place is Red River Flood Plains - Grand Forks (GC1RJ14) with 254 images.  I'll have to find a way to get down to Painted Canyon Overlook as it's the only one of the top three that I don't have.

Geocaching and the Birthday week

Good morning everyone.  Fun fact for this week, most caches in an area according to project-gc.  In Manitoba, no surprise here, Winnipeg leads the way with 1,790 geocaches.  Dauphin is second with 1,027.  Pembina Valley, which includes the cities of Morden and Winkler is fourth with 859 geocaches hidden.  On the other side of the border in North Dakota; Cass County (which includes the city of Fargo) leads the way with 427 geocaches.  Williams County sits in eighth spot with 139 and Stark County is next with 120.  I haven't been to Williams or Stark counties yet.  Maybe next year for the North Dakota Camping and Caching event.  Fingers crossed. Do you do anything special that's geocaching related when it's your birthday?  Do you host an event so you can celebrate with your geocaching friends?  Do you go on a geocaching adventure?  This week, I'll be looking at what I do and how I celebrate my birthday, geocaching style.
