Geocaching in Paris Landing, Tn.

The other day we decided to drive down to Paris Landing State Park in Tennessee.  Some upcoming fishing tournaments are taking place out of there, and Louie wanted to see how far of a drive it was.  Never one to miss an opportunity to geocache, I grabbed my caching bag and we did a couple of geocaches along the way.
If you're new to my blog and don't know what geocaching is, visit this link for more information on my fun hobby.

Here we were at the Kentucky/Tennessee state line.....

At the Paris Landing Marina we stopped to do a cache at the Scott Fitzhugh Memorial Bridge.  The cache was a quick find and placed somewhere on the bridge...

The location was pretty and even Snoopy had to have his picture taken....

After a quick tour of the marina we headed to Paris, Tennessee in search of the Eiffel Tower....

While there we were able to complete a "challenge" cache.  Challenge caches are relatively new to geocaching.  If you're a premium member, you can issue a challenge to other geocachers for them to complete.  In this case the challenge was to find the replica of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, Tn. and upload a photo of yourself in front of it.  Challenge extended, we accepted it and then completed it!

We've only done 4 challenge caches so far.  I wanted to do this one because we had to find the Eiffel Tower. The nice thing about this challenge was that it brought us to a place we would probably never have gone to otherwise.  After all, how many times in my life can I honestly say I've visited the Eiffel Tower??
