We still need to head out and find the last piece to our multi-cache. We&#8217;ll get there eventually!<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few pictures of our adventure.<\/p>\n<p>Bridget and Nick selecting treasures from the box at one of the caches we found.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ernstrom.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07.17_cache1.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A couple of the wild boys and Bridget trying to pick the perfect prize at another cache.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ernstrom.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07.17_cache2.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dave, right after a find.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ernstrom.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07.17_cache3.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Matthew, Ethan, and Bridget showing off some treasures they got from the caches.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ernstrom.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07.17_cache4.png\" \/><br \/>\nThen there was THIS! One of our caches took us up to the Utah State campus. Near a exterior wall to the institute building we found this random sink. Weird. It was hooked into the water line on the side of the building, but there was also a hose all wound up in the sink. I have no idea why it was there, but it was pretty random (and therefore worthy of a picture).<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ernstrom.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07.17_cache5.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thanks Wild Family!
