Snow Caching!

Jacaru recently posted a few pictures on his blog of the snowy weather (see his blog by clicking the link on the right).  We had quite a bit of snow during the night and we had already planned going out to find a few caches near Lorna's parents in Worsley.  So we thought that so many people have done a bit of snow caching why should it stop us?  We got the GPS fired up and camera and off we went.  A picture postcard as some might say, the snow still fresh and not yet turned to the dreaded ice, off down Worsley canal we went to pick up GC29ERE - This Daughter Likes To Live In The Fast Lane.  Its very clever how this cache came about as it is a daughter cache of GC15RYZ - The Mother Cache.  Basically if you find The Mother Cache you can then set up a Daughter cache.  This one we found today was the 61st Daughter.  Check out the Mother Cache as it has a full list of all new caches set up from it!  Here we are on our way down to the cache:
Beautiful walk today.

We then went on to do our second Earthcache which was close by.  Really nice place, again alone the canal.
That's frozen water would you believe?

GC1MVFW - The Canal Duke's Legacy was a nice interesting find.  Had to do a little research to find the answers but that's the fun of it!  I would never have known there was 4 types of coal if it wasn't for this.  A good days caching but I couldn't feel my toes by the end of the walk.  We did attempt another but the cold got the better of us and we gave in very easily.  Will return to that when the snow has cleared!
