Holiday Weekend Day 4

The cold and rain did not deter Southern Man from running some errands in the morning, then coercing a friend to brave the weather and help him pick up a couple of geocaches (including one that had baffled him the day before, but we found it today). And on the way we encountered a cute girl who had managed to get her big 4x4 truck stuck in the mud but the mighty (but merely two-wheel-drive) Titan had no problem pulling her out.

Photo by Southern Man, after she'd knocked the stop sign down but before noticing us. We had her take a few pics of us in mid-rescue with Southern Man's camera as well; they were of her feet, of her fingers, and of empty sky. Go figure.

Then we headed back to Casa Southern Man for a few hours of Guitar Hero and then to a Sunday School class post-Thanksgiving feast. The Southern Man came home and sighed and got to work on the huge box of papers and exams he'd brought home to grade but ignored until now. Oh, well, Sprite and Triple Sec makes the grading go smoother...

Sprite and Triple Sec help grading? Never tried grading while tipsy! Do you give lots of A's with that method?

What (or who) got you so interested in 'geocache'ing? I have a 15 year old stepson coming to live with us this summer. Would you recommend this for he and his father (not a good relationship due to miles apart for so long)?

I got into geocaching shortly after my divorce; apparently another fellow at church took pity on me and took me out with his bunch one day. It's great with your children; even though teens seem to be from another planet sometimes my son always had a good time on the few occasions we went out together. My twelve-year-old daughter loves it; she always takes "trade items" for the larger caches.
