Climb those steps! - 9/14/20

I had a good time this summer finally starting to put out a series of puzzles loosely based on a Nancy Drew theme.  I've been perusing all of the titles of the books and figuring out how I could work them into puzzle caches.  So far I'm about half way through and I have ideas for a few more to come.  One of the titles was "The Mystery of the 99 Steps" which presented the perfect opportunity, if I could manage to pull it off.  It took a lot of planning, but I've been pleased with the results.  But the puzzle I'm point you to today (which I haven't shared here before) is the original California one that inspired it.  I still have my old composition-style notebook with all of my work written down for Kablooey's:

Are you ready for some football? - 9/13/20

Today's puzzle takes us to Canada's province of British Columbia. We're just about ready for the launch of our team's football season tomorrow.  The ceremonial Viking horn has been dusted off and given a test blow, and everyone's Viking garb has been located except for the dog's.  He's currently wearing his Twins shirt, so that may have to suffice.  How about you,:

 Today's North Carolina puzzle is an older one, but not one I've featured here before.  I reached way back into the vault for this:

A pair of "plates" - 9/10/20

Two related series of caches in Australia were brought to my attention recently.  The "F" plate series is meant to be training ground for the harder "P" plate series.  I've been meaning to go back and look at more of both series, but this is the one that was specifically recomended to me:

Run T-Rex, Run! - 9/9/20

Today's puzzle takes us to Oklahoma. I know I've seen this little guy before, but had no idea there was more to him. Fortunately my son was able to help when I suggested:

A Harder Puzzle Cache - 9/8/20

I hope everyone had a great Labor Day weekend.  As I have for the last several years, I spent a good portion of it working on puzzles in Mark Halpin's Labor Day Extravaganza with some friends.  It was very challenging, but a ton of fun.  Today's puzzle takes us to Australia, where the CO was visiting.  While there he placed both an easier and:
