Day 52 Ancient Forest II (GC14KD)

There is something about a cold November rain that just suck the life out of me. It is November and it is raining, and it is cold. My energizer bunny is not still going. This is ok though. I am glad to be out and walking. Maybe I can cache some life back into me.
  Todays cache Ancient Forest II, by Pegasis is sort of a second attempt for me. This is the cache Virginia and I worked on before she fled back to civilization. Neither she nor I found the cache but we did enjoy our little hike. Today my companions are Niki Novalee, Takoda, and  KC. I forgot exactly where we should park. I knew if I saw the parking area I would recall it. I did not recall this place. We were .3 miles away from the cache, so Niki and I decided to give it a shot. We walked the trail down hill then we turned to our left in the area the GPS indicated.  I know we walked more then a tenth of a mile, but the GPS wasn't talking to me. The trail we were on ended. I had no desire to bush whack half a mile to the cache on a rainy. I read the description on the GPS. Surprise parking coordinates. I checked into the coords on the GPS. Time to walk back to the van. We all hopped back in and drove to the proper parking space. We all piled back out of the Van and started back towards the cache.
   This was a very nice walk. Yes it was cold, and rainy, but it was nice. Every one was in good spirits. It was not long before we delved into the woods propper.  The GPS led us to withing 13 feet of the cache. I spotted this one first, Niki second, and then Takoda.  I signed the log book. It was time to go home and get dry.
