It was a cold, frigid, fall day, and Whitney and Brittney decided to go geocaching. They decided to look for their first geocache on Campbell University's campus, that was located at the camel statue. They arrived shortly after 3 o’clock and the sun was still out, so they thought finding the geocache was going to be a piece of cake. However, they were very wrong. They looked on all the benches, the camel, the light poles, and even on the railings. THEY LOOKED EVERYWHERE!! And they could not find the geocache anywhere. They knew the geocache was there because some of their friends had been before them and had found it. On the verge of giving up, they decided to look one last time on the benches. They searched all the nooks and crannies and found it in the back corner of the bench. "FINALLY," Whitney shouted! The geocache was small and magnetic, so it stuck to the bench, which made it extremely hard to find.



After the first success at finding the geocache, the girls decided that they would go ahead and knock another geocache out of the way, so they headed to the geocache entitled the "Cross Keeper," which was located at a gigantic white cross off of 401. A friend had told the girls that the geocache was no longer on the cross. However, Whitney promised Brittney that they would be able to find the geocache. Brittney constantly complained, “Whitney, we aren’t going to be able to find it.” “It has to be here,” Whitney assured Brittney. After about ten minutes, Brittney went and sat in the car while Whitney looked through the bushes. Eventually, Whitney gave up and went to the car. Whitney was very disappointed that they could not find the geocache, but Brittney suggested that they look for one more up the road. The girls drove for about five more minutes and arrived at a green street sign that said, "Chalybeate Springs." Brittney said, “I don’t know if it is safe to get out," but Whitney insisted and said, “There’s two of us so we will be fine, I promise.” The girls got out of the car on 401 and ran to the sign. Immediately, they started looking for the magnetic geocache that they thought would be there. But Brittney looked down and saw the film canister in-between the metal posts of the sign. After finding it, the girls raced back to the car to sign the log inside the film container. The girls then placed the geocache back where they had found it, and that was the end of geocaching for that chilly, fall day!



The next week, the girls decided to visit Lillington’s Town Hall. The girls thought that the best place for the geocache to be hidden would be on the clock, because it was called, "Does anybody really know what time it is." (The name pretty much gave the cache location away.) They started looking on the clock, around the clock, and at the bottom and they realized that that the geocache was not there. As the girls were walking around the clock, Whitney suggested that they should look in the rocks, so the girls started digging through a part of the rocks and the geocache happened to be right where they were digging. The geocache was interesting, because it was similar to bottle tops. It was painted brown with some of the paint missing. Whitney and Brittney signed the log and ran back to the car with excitement!

The girls celebrated as they had just found their last geocache!!!
