          I have done so-o-o little caching this spring/summer! I like the idea of souvenirs…it gets me back out there. I think I’ll run to GB today and look for a couple to get me going again. It’s also gotten me started in planning out a Lab Adventure for Oconto. I received notice for hosting a Community Event but I just can’t get too excited about that and am not sure it’ll happen…same with the WGA’s fall picnic/campout. Sad times 🙁

                I got to the dealership yesterday, and the service advisor suggested a more involved preventative maintenance procedure than just an oil change. Said it would take about 5 hours, so they would give me a loaner. So I took the loaner caching. Put on about 120 miles and found 17 of 19. The two DNFs were caches that I had DNFed before. One is an evil micro in the woods. The other is just gone.

                  There should be a law against hiding micros in the woods…ugh! I found 32-34 today…got all the Wonders of the World. Am glad they got me out and caching again…it’s been a dry spell.

                    Sunday morning, as I was getting ready to go caching, Betty informed me that the clothes dryer wasn’t working. After a little trouble shooting, I came to the conclusion that it was not something that I could fix, and would probably cost more for a repairman than it is worth. So on my way home I stopped at Menards and bought a new dryer. This afternoon I was washing dishes, when the kitchen faucet started spraying water out where water is not supposed to come out. Got the water turned off and what leaked into the cabinet cleaned up. Looks like tomorrow’s project will be plumbing.

                      Got stung by a wasp. Got my ear sliced by a sharp branch. A few nettles to itch, itch, itch.

                      Just another day of hunting Lonely Caches!

                        Sounds like you had a good day. I spent a portion of my day under the kitchen sink. Two trips to Menards: one to buy the new faucet and one to buy tools that I thought I was going to need to remove the old faucet. Turns out that I had the tools I needed: sawzall, pry bar, and pruning shears. Met with a lawyer about selling my mom’s house. I was under the sink when Betty called and told me that she forgot something that she needed for her dog training class, so a third trip to Marshfield ensued.

                        Duck house 1 is finished – well, my wife hasn’t signed off on it yet, but it’s assembled and useable. Spent an hour edging around my shop to get rid of nails, screws and glass that have been surfacing where I drive in/out with the tractor and then dug around the base of a maple tree where we found the parts of three glass jars yesterday. We keep asking, “Who lives like this?” Every time we do work around the property we find broken glass, scraps of metal and various nail, etc.

                        Big day for birds today! I opened the ends of the fencing that kept our duck family separated from our geese and other ducks. There’s been some “friendly competition” between the drakes wanting wanting what they can’t have, and the fence kept them safely staring across the fence at what they want but can’t have. So far, so good. After a little bit of quacking and flapping and running, they’re back into their normal groupings and leaving each other alone. With acres to roam, I think space will give them a way to keep away from each other.

                        The best sig is no sig.

                        Does anyone want ducks btw? Free! We have 7 too many.
