The Peanut Butter Brigade and Some Very Big Rocks (page 1)
July 31, 2003
Excursions to: caches in and around Mt. Vernon, Washington
A Big Rock with Big Views
The title of the cache says it all. :)
Donna sits with her back to the rock.
The Peanut Butter Brigade was celebrating two milestones. One was Pepper finding her 700th cache.
Can you see her in the middle of these bushes? She found it!
Pepper, Donna, and Lucy hold up 7 -- 0 -- 0 in front of the Big Rock.
From the top, we had incredible views of the Skagit Valley and its surrounding mountains.
Off in the distance, to the north, is the peak of Mt. Baker.
To the south, we caught glimpses of a lake.
Our other big milestone of the day was Lucy's birthday! We celebrated with cake and silliness.
Pepper, Lucy, and Cindy making the 7 -- 0 -- 0 this time.
Pepper, Lucy, and Donna look at the lakes and mountains.
The "big rock" is actually the Hoag Memorial Park. There were also two geological survey markers (you can see one of the round disks above the sign).
