Log: Recovered in good condition while walking around Salt Lake City as we wait for our son’s climbing competition to start. We had our Lyft drop us off at Temple Square, and from there, we took the steep uphill walk to the capitol. We were short on time, but were able to check out the visitor center and take a few photos of this very impressive building.

Log: Recovered in good condition while walking around the Naval Academy grounds, before heading home after a short getaway in Annapolis. I don’t think I’ve visited the USNA grounds since I was a teen, when I vaguely remember taking a couple of extracurricular G/T classes here. Today, we took a leisurely stroll through the visitor center before exploring the grounds around the chapel and the officers’ residences. People were arriving for a wedding while we were here.

 HV6394'RECOVERED IN GOOD CONDITION.

Log: Recovered in good condition during a quick 2-night getaway to Annapolis. I’ve walked by St. Mary’s a couple of times during our stay, and I decided to snap a photo, as I’ve been trying to get back into benchmarking after geocaching.com dropped support for it, and I’ve finally settled on a way to log my benchmark recoveries going forward. I had logged a couple of other prominent benchmarks in town (the capitol dome and the St Ann’s spire) back in 2018. Great to be back.

Log: Recovered in good condition on 4/7/2023 while visiting Springfield. We visited the Lincoln museum and Oak Ridge Cemetery, and enjoyed good food and beer at Obed and Isaac’s before making the long drive to Midway to fly home. Not my first time visiting Springfield, and likely won’t be my last. The photo below was taken from several blocks away and cropped.

This is my first stab at logging a benchmark recovery here. I am writing this on 5/10/2025, and will attempt to backdate the post to the actual recovery date.
