Prepping for MOGA

We wanted to attend Geo-Woodstock in Maryland but, realized attending the event that far from home would be difficult.  Also, if I traveled to that area, I would want to cache states of Delaware and New Jersey and that would add to the possible misery.  This cacher did cache Washingon D.C and northern Virginia and traffic is horrible in that region of the United States.

The event was a planning event and mostly for volunteers who would be working the MOGA.  Having little desire to work an event; I did want to attend the later part of the event to learn more about MOGA and it's differences from a Geo-Woostock.  We arrived and put to work, it did appear much was accomplished.  Having hosted some events, I know the work to prepare for an event and could only imagine the difficulties and challenges for a Mega type event.

Prior to the event, we traveled to Bollinger County, Missouri and visited a Natural History Museum.  While driving into the county, the region resembled the Ozarks that we visited in 2011 in Arkansas and we learned we were on the outer edges of the Ozarks.

We also visited a grist mill and walked across a covered bridge.
