Jenny and I drove up to Ankeny, Iowa to Kidman Tree Farm to pick out a Christmas tree. We spotted a cute spruce with a sparkle in her branches so we took her home.

Oh, you think that’s the whole story huh? Nah! We were out to geocache on one of the last semi-warm days here in Iowa! And a banner day at that – we found all 4 of 4 geocaches.

See how obvious caches are! Take a look thru the Nancy-vision 3000:

Yes, it was prickly but I was not to be denied:

Last one of the day is along a deserted bike path near one of the area lakes. It’s deserted because it’s freezing cold out. Great because this one is a difficulty 2 1/2.  Sweet! No need for stealth. Riiiiight.

I’m up a tree (giving one heck of a monkey impersonation) when two ladies and a baby go strolling by while Jenny is taking this picture. Don’t worry, I’m using my Jedi invisibility cloak.
