Event happened – and I am pretty happy about it! With my event being in the wilderness and the weather being less-than-perfect, we had very few attendees.  There were also three other event options in the metro areas and indoor.    However, one cool thing about having an event in the middle of nowhere is the interesting people that show up!  We were waiting to hit that magical time of 4:29PM when we saw someone coming down the little 4X4 trail on horseback.  We figured we’d wait for them since they may be a cacher.  Turns out, he was an honest to goodness cowboy!  He was going through the area trying to locate some straggling cattle from the day before.  He was curious as to what we were doin’, and after explaining it to him and answering the ‘usual’ questions (i.e. How many of these geocache things are there, what do you find in them, etc.), he was kind enough to sign our logbook.  He even shared some root beer hard candies with the group!

Before we knew it, it was already 5:00!  Probably my smallest turnout (6 attendees) but definitely one of the most memorable events, for sure!
