for Rosie, 2003 - 2019
Three friends pack a Very Special Lunch
and set off.
Willow wanders in the woods, looking for the
Perfect Place for a Picnic.
Rosie darts up hill and down, round and about, shouting.
Bucky finds a Good Spot for a Nice Little Dig,
and lags behind.
Rosie nips him on the butt to “Keep up!”
The Perfect Place! It has good digging, good darting, and cool water.
They share their picnic in the dappled shade.
They nap together in the sun before wandering on.
They go Over ...
and Under ...
and Through, as the bright sky darkens
and shadows grow.
Bucky has a really Very Good Smeller and finds where he dug.
Rosie remembers exactly where she’s run and leads
them on a Shortcut.
Willow is loyal. Willow may wander but
always Knows the way Home.
And THERE it is!
The OriginalsMillions of geocaches are listed on geocaching.com and
hundreds of thousands of people go out looking for them.
We go along with emzernask on the hunt, hence we are…
the Geojacks!
