    It’s been raining here for about 30 minutes or so. It’s not pouring, just a casual light rainfall. Hopefully this will be over by morning; I like my outside office but it looks like it’s gonna linger awhile 🙁

    I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

      Rain started here just after 4:00

        It started raining here around 3PM.  Just your typical all day rain type rain.

              And as is the case with the axiom that if you wait a little bit, the weather in Wisconsin will change, it has.  Rain and storms headed my way.  Last night’s rain had its downpours, but no flooding by me.  The wind made itself known, but again, no major damage.

              I think I found my first BigJim cache yesterday, and now my first Hack cache today. Love how my Census job is taking me all over the place. I’m sure I’ve added a few new counties and Delorme pages in the past week. I just missed two counties the other day – no cache close enough to the border when I was out in the middle of nowhere to justify the extra miles.

              Speaking of which, electric geomobile just topped 100,000 miles on my way home from work today. I’ve got a puzzle cache all worked out in my mind to celebrate the occasion, just need the time to place the cache and make the numbers work.

              The poor Volt has taken a beating that reminds me of the abuse it took in rural Oregon. Blew out a tire yesterday by North Twin Lake. Glad there was a cache right there so I could tell someone where I was. It still took the tow guy 90 minutes to find me, but he was a great guy.

              First night of summer school online help sessions: 1 kid showed up even though I was expecting 5 or 6 based upon conversations with parents. I guess that explains why they’re in summer school! The kid that did show up really appreciated the help, and I think I have him set to finish the work he needs to get his credit. Focus on the wins, not the ones that don’t show.

              Well, looks like I’ll have at least another 8 hours in the car tomorrow, so I better get to bed soon. Heading to Bachelor Lane tomorrow. Looks like more lake homes with no one living there – my specialty! If I’m smart, I’ll preload the local caches before I leave.

              The best sig is no sig.

                FTP for another beautiful, sunny morning. Weather forecaster is calling for increasing clouds and rain this afternoon.

                  Lovely day but really windy.  Too windy for me to kayak on Lake Neshonoc….I’m a wimp.

                  Trekkin’ is painting in the porch.  I guess one thing about this pandemic, we’ve gotten to a lot of projects that have been ignored in favor of more fun stuff.  Hopefully the building of the Little Free Library can be next on the list, since the garage is cleared out and there’s room to work in there now.

                  Wow! What I’ve been missing by not getting up to northern Wisconsin to cache!

                  Cement Park! Wow!

                  Double Arch Stone Bridge! Wow!

                  FTP for Fabulous Friday. Maybe frost Up North tonight – Yikes!

                  I’d Rather Be Lost Geocaching, Than Found At Home!

                      FTP for Saturday. Got a notification today for an archived cache that has the same name as one of my caches. At first I thought that it was my cache that was archived.

                        Just another 200 or so and you’ll have found all of the BigJim & Hack caches.  Snap to it! 😉
