Lucky 7!


Last Saturday my geocache helpers shown here found 7 caches - setting a record for us anyhow. The location in this picture on the Haley Road is the site of where a cache is hidden - in the stump on which Jessica is sitting on. This particular one is a "micro-cache", called so because it is only a film cannister. Just big enough to contain a log sheet to sign! A "Regular" cache is large enough to contain small trading items.

We also ended up out at the Sandford Drawbridge area where another stash of goodies was found. Thanks to the trusty tri-pod, I was able to include myself in this photo. So we are up to 43 finds - 50 will be a bit of a landmark. I'll post a photo of find number 50. CHEERS!

Yikes!

Yikes! That is all I can say to a couple of things today. Number one, the weather - what a nasty Nor'Easter hitting us tonight! And secondly, what a terrible scene down in Virginia today with 33 innocent souls losing their lives. The worse campus massacre in the history of the U.S. The gunman then took his own life.
On a different and happier note, the Stanley Cup playoffs in hockey are underway. Neither the Leafs or Canadiens made the cut, so I am hoping that a Canadian team will win. Remaining Canadian teams are Ottawa, Calgary, and Vancouver.
Also, I have updated my E-Commerce Web-site (see the link under "My Links"). It now includes more products under the OTHER category, including "Artistry" cosmetics. Feel free to check it out.
Take care and "batten down the hatches"!

More Geocaching!


These girls are great nieces of Sheila, Angelia on the left and Jessica on the right. While out Geocaching, they wanted their photo taken at the fountain in Frost Park - so voila'. I just happened to get this photo taken before my battery zonked out - but I did get some more using dad's camera. By the way, there are now many new caches hidden in the immediate area which makes for a fun day searching. We managed to fing the little micro-cache hidden at Frost Park. Although a rather cold day, Sheila and I took them to Tim Horton's for hot chocolate. When it gets warmer, this activity will be all the more enjoyable!
Here's another photo taken behind our old house in Dayton where I have my own cache hidden for others to find.
Big hockey game tonight - Habs Vs. Leafs for a playoff spot - final regular season game for both teams. Game time now - so must go watch!
