It was a dark and dreary Friday night in Buies Creek. With nothing but the same ole same ole to do, a fantastic date idea popped into my head! What fun would a flashlight geocaching adventure be! So I dragged my reluctant boyfriend over to my house and began to formulate the plan. We decided to stay within walking distance of Campbell University. We explored the geocaching website, and plundered through some different optionsfor our date! We excitedly plugged in our coordinates to our handy dandy GPS, wrote down our clues, grabbed our flashlights and were out the door.

Our first destination was Saylor Park. With our GPS in one hand and our flashlight in the other we trekked through the area guided by the street lights. After surveying the grounds, the GPS led us to our designated landmark. The number clue that did not mak since prior, proved to be the number on an electrical box. We wrote down our team name, and we were off with our next coordinates.



The next landmark was an old well. Using our handy dandy flashlight we searched in high places, like the clue had mentioned. If not for Graham's stature, we would have never found it. With a little team work and elbow grease we were able to locate the cache!





Our final destination was located at the Bell Tower. Even though we knew this cache has been hard to find in the past, we were sure our team could find it. We looked high and low for the cache but were unsuccessful.

Just for giggles, I wanted to see if Graham could find the cache at the Camel Statue. I knew this would be difficult, but I was sure he had gotten the hang of this whole geocaching thing. Sure enough he found it! It took some intense investigating on his part to locate the cache.

Date night turned out to be a success. If you are poor college students like us, I would definitely suggest a geocaching date.
