300 and the Next Stop on My Itinerary

Well, it looks like my blogs will only be posted once a week. Real life is getting in the way of my fun!! Nonetheless, we're keeping our geocaching streak alive. We have geocached every day for 28 days straight despite all the rain and Indiana weather issues. With caching every day we've hit some milestones. On April 13th, we reached 200 finds and today we discovered our 300th! 

The World's Largest Ball of Paint - right here in Indiana!!

Yes, there's an actual cache at this Guinness World Record Largest Ball of Paint and we added the 22,708th layer.

What a cool find! We loved chatting with the creator/owner (Mike Carmichael) of this 34-year-old project. Check it out at Big Ball of Paint.

It's Itinerary Time!

Finally, I wanted to share our next stop on our trip...drum roll, please......

Niagara Falls, NY

We are looking forward to several Earthcaches in this area, along with a few geocaches too. I used to teach Earth/Space Science, so I am very interested in awesome power of nature. We are definitely taking the kids on the Maid of the Mist boat tour that takes people right up to the falls. It's exciting and exhilarating! We will spend a day and a half in the area. Ruth and I visited here last summer for our 20th anniversary, but we are excited to share it with the kiddos.
