Nebo Loop Canyon Trip

So, we decided to take a different canyon trip today. It has been a very long time since Daniel and I went up a canyon to see the leaves and just enjoy a drive. I think the last time as up AF Canyon when I was pregnant with Journey. So it made today even more special since we had Our Journey with us.

Journey calling the "horseies" to her

Petting "Marsa

Animal lover...

When we started up the loop, there were some horses to our right and Journey wanted to stop to look at them. We got out of the car and she started over to the fence. About the same time, the horses, well one mare and one muel, decided to come see her too. She is our little horse whisperer! She decided to name the brown mare, Marsa. I have no idea why, but that's just Journey. Full of imagination....

We had a hard time keeping any signals on our Moments, so we grabbed what few caches we could. They were still pretty fun. The first one we got was by Jac0b called "Land of Many Uses". Nice hide btw... After that, we were able to get a signal as we kept going up the canyon. But only long enough for us to grab "Maple Dell Micro" by the Cervine Girls. Whiel we were there, Journey again made some friends with a few animals. Two dogs, one Dane and one Sharpe'. They liked her just as much as she like them. We chatted with their owners for a bit after signing the log, and then headed on up a bit more. 

We lost signal for a while so we decided to stop at a cool little waterfall and take a few pictures. You know me and my camera, anything can make a great photo...

So when we were able to pull ourselves away from the rest, up the loop we go with still, no signal. Then all of a sudden, BAM! Signal again. We were able to make the pull off for the Utah County Overlook and grab another cool cache.
Dan went a hunting for this one since Journey was passed out in the back by this time. I waited in the car and admired the view. When he got back to the car, had had Journey her very own orange rubber bracelet. She was thrilled when she woke up.
We decided that since signal was so bad on our Moments, we would just head back down the canyon and enjoy the drive. It was also about 5:30 pm by this time and the sun was going down. When we got back down the loop, we both needed to stretch our legs and grab a drink. Ofcourse, the obsesed cacher that I am, pull out my phone and am relieved to see we have bars. i turn on the cachin' app and search for nearby caches. Low and behold, there is a Peanuts Parents cache within a few houndred feet of us. We get back in the Cache-mobile, and head for it. Buy Peanut Butter, Eat, Then place the cache gave us a bit of a hunt. I guess the previous finders didn't want it to be found by muggels! Anywho, finally found it, signed the log, and homeward bound we were.
What a fun filled,cache finding, sight seeing trip this was. You never know how many memories you actually make, until you sit back, and remember... Oh yeah, one day.... Always try to make a memory that will stay with you forever.
