Laura, the Lustron home tour would be a good one as the final is right off a 
paved trail. There is one hill from the parking area but nothing too major. We 
enjoyed the tour and thought it was a really unique cache.

  Subject: [GeoStL] caches my mom can do


  This Sunday I am looking for an activity to do with my mother for Mothers Day 
that we both can enjoy.  She's not especially into geocaching, but she does 
like to see interesting things.

   

  I was thinking about Babler Springs EarthCache (GC1916K).  I read in the logs 
that it is an "easy walk from parking area."  Do you think it is easy enough 
for a 75-year-old woman (with early Parkinson's)?  She has a cane that she 
sometimes uses, and a walker that she only uses for longer distances like the 
mall.  I'm guessing the walker wouldn't work here.  (The trail is not paved, is 
it?  It doesn't look like it from the pictures.)

   

  The other idea I had was Lustron Home Tour of Webster Groves by RGS (GCR589). 
 Do you think that would be a better choice?  I'm assuming it would be mostly 
riding in a car.

   

  Thanks in advance for your helpful suggestions!
