Have you ever had a month fly by, but looking back, you didn’t really do anything eventful? That’s how June felt to me.
I’ve been geocaching every weekend. This past weekend I tried to introduce my 10 year old niece to the wonderful world of geocaching, but we went 0 for 6. My niece wasn’t too discouraged, since I let her play at the parks we visited. Two of the caches were stolen, one we couldn’t figure out how to get on the trail without cutting though someone’s yard (later we learned that you have to go though the cemetery to get to the trailhead). Another trail had a group of teenage boys smoking and drinking at the trailhead. One needed an extraction tool (tweezers or needle nose pliers), which I did not have on hand. The last one was in a rock wall and we just couldn’t find it.
To date I have logged 18 finds! Here are a few pictures of the more fascinating geocaches I’ve found.
A plastic rock underneath landscaping at a local clock shop. The owner of the store caught me poking around and kindly gave me a hint to the cache whereabouts.
The cache was actually hanging off the back leg of whatever this interesting creature is.
I’ve also been playing pool a lot lately. A few of my friends are on a pool league, so I’ve been hanging out with them, trying to learn a thing or two. I don’t plan on joining any pool leagues in the future, but I do enjoy playing and have even noticed improvement in my game.
That’s about it for my month of June. I’ll try to make July a little more exciting. Watch for book reviews sometime near the end of the week.
Ahahahahaha! That rat is a perfect idea, though I'd probably scream, too, if I saw it.
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of putting fake, plastic spiders in the bottom of trash cans for mom to find. Such fun times.
Sounds rather eventful to me! Enjoy life, that's what I say. You seem to be doing just that. Hope your summer is a great one.
