Monday afternoon we decided to go geocaching out in Pope Valley with my parents, Marshall and Beth. I have always wanted to explore around Aetna Springs when I drive by but I have never taken the time to stop before. I found a few geocaches along Aetna Springs Road that seemed interesting. I recently heard about the historic Aetna Springs Golf Course, you would hardly know it was there. There are some really cool old buildings and rock walls around the golf course, unfortunately you will have to take my word for it, I didn't take pictures of that.
Pope Valley is such a beautiful spot, I love how rural the area is.
Allyson helping Grandpa search for the first Geocache, this is not where it was, we searched and searched and finally Beth spotted it.
As we searched around Allyson was happy to throw rocks into a large puddle. In fact when it was time to leave she didn't want to, she wanted to stay and throw rocks in the puddle.
The picture quality of this video isn't that great, but I love her chatter as she plays.
It was a fun afternoon exploring an area that I had never seen. The road takes you up overlooking Pope Valley and then deep into the woods, it was a beautiful drive. We found 3 out of 4 of the caches we were looking for. The last cache was supposed to be small and it was getting dark very quickly so we left without finding that one. Another great adventure close to home!
