Today we start the journey back.<\/p>\n

We head out grabbing a few caches along the water front walkway. The view from Anniversary cache<\/a> was very good of the river and the surrounding area.<\/p>\n

I stopped as we left Laughlin so sweet-marie and Wifey could grab one cache that Rumrunner1 and I did last year.<\/p>\n

It was then a short drive up the highway to a Virtual cache called Crapped out I`m going caching<\/a>. This required a small kike in from the parking area.<\/p>\n

Upon returning we ran saw many people in the parking lot who were dressed for winter, by this I mean winter Jackets, Toques and winter boots and gloves. Please note the short sleeve shirt and shorts Rumrunner1 has on.
\nWe didn’t think it was “that” cold.<\/p>\n

A short drive up the road took us to a cache called The Eyes have it<\/a>. I did this cache a year ago by myself and really enjoyed it. I figured the other would enjoy it just as much. The interesting part is only 1 other cacher has found it in that year.<\/p>\n

From this cache we moved north and picked up a few caches along the way before we headed into the desert to clean up some of the Grandpa series. We had to stop at Grandpa Rollie<\/a> so Rumrunner1 could get his name sake.<\/p>\n

From here we headed to Las Wegos where we were to check-in at the Excalibur for the night.
\nWe were to meet Baada Daata at the NYNY at America`s for dinner. It was a great way to end the week in the south.<\/p>\n

In all I have appeared to have logged 875+ caches for the week. There will still be more as I complete Challenges that I signed the log for.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow we head home and I will not write anything on the flight back.<\/p>\n

On another note since posting my Siberian Matrix pr H.O.w.s Series
\nI have several emails on this.<\/p>\n

I can not stress this enough one has to do this series prepared. While I may have come across this is a easy series it is farthest from the truth. I said we took a First Aid kit and we used it. Cell service is not reliable. You are in the middle of no where and I do mean this. Do not try doing this series at night unless you are experienced at being out here as there are many washes and a lot of these caches are not drive up. They require some hiking. There are desert critters out here as I have shown. Take lots of water and some food with you. If you break down out here it could be a while before you get help.<\/p>\n

I can say this that the series was a lot of fun but at the same time some very tough caches.<\/p>\n

As I said in my post we wanted to be on pavement at dark as we don`t consider ourselves experienced enough for some of the challenges we came across during daylight to do these at night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
