This past sunday, my SIL came to visit with her two dtrs, and she invited us to tag along with her to go geocaching. This is an amazing thing to take your kids to do! It is basically treasure hunting, only with a handheld GPS unit to locate latitude/longitude points. My SIL had a travel bug she had taken from another cache in Washington, so she placed it here when we found our 1st cache. The whole point is that you take something, leave something. Most things are random trinkets, like McDonalds toys, or $ store items. Then you sign the log, name and date found, and replace it. I made a montage to illustrate just how fun it is. Drew and Beau loved it, and so did I! It is also a wonderful way to see the outdoors with your kids. Just down from our first cache find was a turtle pond with tons of dragonflies flittering about. It was great fun to see many things we don't see everyday, we also came across a huge white spider eating a bumble bee on a thistle. Pic is in montage.You can read all about geocaching, locate some near you, and create your own geocaching profile

Can you believe this sky? This is the sunset from last eve just above our road! I had to take a pic, it's just amazing to see such drastic color!
Random ramblings from Beau: "Hey, mom, peter pan has a pickled pepper. I didn't know that, but he won't let me have one!" What?! I wonder where this came from...
