Earlier this month a nice cold, sunny, windy day, I went to Tulsa’s RiverParks trails to look for an Adventure Lab Geocache. Adventure Labs are a specialty cache where you have to visit a site and find information there. No physical cache is involved so it is appropriate for areas where they don’t really want you hiding stuff. Check out geocaching.com for more information. So this Adventure Lab involved going to several sculptures and getting information from the sculpture or accompanying plaque.
I ended up walking about two or three miles and had the parks trails to myself. At the end of the Adventure Lab you get coordinates to a “real” geocache and I found it as well.
And I took photos of all sorts of other stuff. We still had lots of fall color and the skies were really blue.
These are some sort of infrastructure and artists had painted murals on them and I really liked them.
And RiverParks installed this little musical drum for little kids and immature 69 year olds geocachers.
And I got this certificate!! I am not sure what you do with certificates. I am now up to 2287 geocache finds. But who is counting, right?
I am linking with My Corner of the World and Skywatch Friday.
…Alan, you found some wonderful things!!!
Lidas esculturas. Te mando un beso.
Beautiful sculptures. I liked the 2nd photo the best.
Sounds like a fun adventure!
The murals and musical drum are awesome.
Congrats on reaching 2287 finds – that’s impressive!
I hope your Geo adventures continue in 2025. Season’s greetings from Florida! Have a meaningful holiday and a happy new year!
I really like that mural, it has a kind of indigenous feel to it.
Fun way to spend an afternoon! Irv hates the caches that require you to “learn” something and follow directions. That’s what we mostly find in the national parks and it drives him nuts, but you can’t really have people hiding things in the national parks. That may change soon when the new administration removes protection for America’s public lands. It’s cool you got a certificate upon completion.
that first photo with brilliant blue sky is a winner
Love the sculptures and art. The Autumn trees are pretty.
Sounds like you had a fun day. Take care, have a great day!
Awesome photos and divine sculpture and glad you are ‘certified’ ~
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family ~
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days ~

Love the autumn colours.
Beautiful blue skies and lovely statues!
What a lovely cyber walk. Yea! You played the musical sculpture. You are brave, not immature. Happy Trails.
Wow, fall color that late. Our colors right now are grey and white (except, on December 17, when the sun made an appearance) so I enjoyed your clear blue sky. I love everything – the sculptures, the All Sorts of Other stuff. Alana ramblinwitham
I’ve never done a geocache of any kind. I’m glad you had fun doing it on what looks to be a fabulous day!
It looks like there are sculpture types for all types of people! Who’s counting? You are!
I enjoy all the sculptures that you have been sharing here.
Happy Holidays to you and yours.
