Drove Down To Woodland...............







yesterday afternoon and did a little caching along the way. We took a little side trip to Colousa that just happened to take us by another casino. An old dude who goes by the name of "Retired Professor" has placed nearly 700 caches in the Yuba City area and we found about 11 of them in a series along side the road. One poor cache met its fate at the hands of a lawnmower. We had to stop at the casino and this was the quickest trip we ever made to a casino. We found a cache North of the casino, stopped, gambled, won $23.50, drove South and found another cache in a total of 28 minutes from cache to cache. I think we punched the button twice on a nickel slot machine and it spit out a small payoff! Made a potty stop and we were on our way toward Woodland. Bryce had a ball game at 1700 and we made it with about an hour to spare. The Colousa area has a ton of caches placed and we'll have to spend some more time there. It appears to be a great area for the "numbers".
Second collage are sights you don't want to see when traveling down the road! I was napping while Becky was driving and she started yelling something about a truck. I glanced up in time to snap a couple of pictures as she was frozen at the wheel. Then, due to superior male driving skill and lightening fast male reactions, I was able to grab the steering wheel and avoid the oncoming truck. I also managed to calm her down so we could cruise on down the road and I could resume my nap. Continued the trip without further incident.
