Geocaching in Missouri March 2016

We're thrilled that spring is starting to show up so we hit the road with mom and dad and headed to Missouri for a day of caching.  Here's a look at some of our favorite caches of the day.

The cache at Trucks Galore was a clever hide....




Dad made quick work of Kiss a Prince.......



It was hidden near this pretty water fountain....




My favorite cache of the day was No Value Meal Here.   It was hidden in the front yard of the cache owner.  Can you guess the meaning behind the cache name???




Fir Real  was quick and easy....


In all we found 9 caches and then we headed over to one of our favorite restaurants for lunch - Lambert's Cafe  in Sikeston, Missouri.  I've written about this fun restaurant before.  This is the place where they throw huge rolls across the room for you to catch.  Check out the giant drink mugs.  Don't worry, if you don't finish it, they will give you a take home cup for your leftover drink...


They walk around with large bowls of sides for you to choose from, like fried okra, fried potatoes, macaroni and tomatoes, or black eyes peas.  And you can have as much of any of those sides as you want, in addition to your meal.


Here's an order of fried shrimp with cottage cheese and beets....


This is the meat loaf, mashed potatoes, applesauce and peaches.....


They give  you so much food that we all took half of our meals home and heated them up for dinner.  I'm telling you, if you are ever in southeast Missouri, stop at Lambert's Cafe.  Just get there early.  By noon there was a line going out the door!

  5. I've been just a stone's throw (no pun intended lol) from Lambert's many times over the years and always wanted to try it. The next time we're in that vicinity, we won't pass it up!

    1. Care - you have GOT to stop and eat there. And they give you enough food to have plenty of leftovers for dinner. It's a great place.
