Geocaching

First time geocaching!  Hubby and I went to Quihi, Texas which is a veritable ghost town.  I have lived within 20 miles of it pretty much my whole life, but had never gone there.  We explored an old Alsatian cemetery at the Lutheran church which houses the graves of some of the first settlers to the area.  Many of the epitaphs were written in German.  The cache itself was only large enough to contain a tiny notebook, a stub of a pencil, a (jasper?) red polished pebble, a heart/cross pendant.  I wanted to the pebble since I love stones, so I replaced it with one of the small fabric yo-yos from my purse.  The second cache in Quihi that we went to wasn't nearly as exciting--it was in the parking lot of a bar.  Not worthy of pictures.  Mostly because my camera had lost all power by then.
