Tipsaw Lake in the Hoosier National Forest

9-12-09 We camped at Tipsaw Lake in the Jackwood area of the campground. On Saturday night we headed to downtown Tell City to eat at Caper's. While we waited for our carryout, Jim and the kids found two caches. Jack and I were hanging out in the truck. It was a beautiful evening!

GSA fun on 09-09-09

09-09-09 After school today, the third grade girl scouts met at Wesselman's Woods to do a little dayhiking and geocaching. We had fun trying to find one of the Goldilocks' caches and then we went to Odanata Pond to find another temporary cache loaded with swag for the girls. We practiced CITO while we were having fun in the park.
One group of girls happened upon a letterbox which was an added bonus. The other group of girls found a turtle hanging out near a cache. How cool is that?!
We ran out of time to do it together, but The Martin Family made sure to get the troop 505 cache planted before we left the park. We're calling in Keepin' It Green since we're hoping that cachers will bring their recyclables to the park and then look up this cache. We also hope to inspire others to CITO. The scouts are looking forward to seeing where our Keepin' It Green Frog TB gets to travel via the cacher train.
