100th Texas find

[+fortworthbret]

I'm slowly creeping up on my 100th traditional find.

 

Anyone have some good sugestions on a cache not too far from DFW for my 100th?

 

I'll be re-visiting my first cache (it's still there as of this week, so I may be ok there) right after that, so that'll be something.

 

thoughts? ideas? whatever else's?

Admittedly, I'm biased, but a couple of mine might be good:

 

Driving Miss Tandy O-Cache

Rickel Pickle

 

It's a bit of a drive, but Texas Double is the oldest continuously operating cache in Texas. It's got one of the best views of any cache I've been to.

Congratulations on your upcoming milestone!!

 

I agree with Webling that the caches in the national grasslands near Decatur, including Texas Double, are really outstanding. It continues to surprise me that they get such little traffic. I can only speculate that many people think it is a longer drive than it actually is. BTW...it is very hilly with great views, not anything like I visualized a "grassland" to be.

 

I am also very partial to all of the caches in Dinosaur Valley State Park, near Glen Rose, southwest of Fort Worth. I think there are now four in the park, including a virtual which has yet to be found. We picked Blessed Solitude for our 100th cache. It still remains one of my all time favorites. It required a lot of preparation ahead of time, but that was half the fun for us.

 

I would also highly recommend the caches in Tyler State Park, north of Tyler off I-20. We did those just this past weekend. This is an outstanding park. My personal favorite of those was Five Sisters, but we enjoyed all three of the caches in this park very much.

 

Good luck on whatever you decide. Any geocaching adventure is better than sitting at home!!

I accidentally double logged.

heh.. Webling, some of yours are due up soon. (pure chance I haven't done one yet).

 

I like the idea of the LBJ Grasslands (and due to the age of the cache, this seems like a great idea), this will more than likely be what I end up doing unless a better idear pops up.
