The secret camp the saga continues, part 3.....


For those following along,   I tested a little theory I had.  I suspected that the camp was beiing visited in the evening or overnight,    so I did a check in late Saturday afternoon when the weather was glorious,  hoping they might be there,  and then another Sunday morning.  

And guess what, between those two flights they had indeed been in and covered everything over.  Im assuming they have seen the poor weather forecast for the week and dont want it all washed away.




Taken with the Mini 2.

That looks like a wheelie bin centre left, with a few pots on top.

Yep, there is certainly somebody doing some activities. I suspect they are of the kind that wouldn't be approved in the public...

Ive been thinking about the route they take for being seen the least and I think I know when way they must come,   there is a route that takes you behind a lot of pushes off the main path,   only likely to see geocachers along that route.

I bet those days in the evening will be the best time to check out the secret camp for activity.

Don't know about Monty's preferences, as for myself I'd rather stay as far away from those activities as possible. But well, maybe if it's legal in your country and don't harm yourself nor others with it, then each to their own, I guess.

We've had a couple of really nice days this week. (Ive picked up a tan) and now were into the thunderstorms and rain stage so I was probably a good thing they packed up the site a bit.

We are also seeing some strange weather patterns here this year.  Maybe due to climate change?  Who knows.

We've had a few weird days.  yesterday we had an inch of rain in the morning,    the sun then appeared by 2pm and by 4pm it was spitting again,    just as I got out with the Mini3.

Yeah, it really is all about timing.  They have a saying here in Florida - Give it 15 minutes and the weather will change.  Not quite that drastic but is very unpredictable over the last 12 months.

The weather is certainly playing games,  in Spain the temperature is 60f higher than it should be for this time of year.

Weather forecast for my locale is 91F and sunny.  Light winds out of the Southeast.  So it should be a great day for the go kart races.

Maybe it's an alibi? "No, Mister Officer, we're not coming here to grow anything illegally, we're just... umm... wait... yeah, GEOCACHING! That's it!"

We do learn to be surreptitious, we Geocachers
A trait which helps when droning, too
