Happy cache-verary to me! Might be able to get to town to find one too.
As we were watching people walk around downtown yesterday, we were saying that nobody would really believe the way people look out here unless we took pictures. We didn’t take pictures. Easy version: you ever wonder where the late-night people at Walmart go to during the day? Answer: here
When I won the 50/50 yesterday, the girls at the booth wanted to know if I would by raffle tickets for the other fundraiser. Prize = a gun of my choice, pistol or rifle, any caliber I wanted. I looked at them, and said, “I may be the only person in this county that wouldn’t want to win, but you can have my money.” It’s going to be interesting teaching government out here. The guys at the next booth chimed in, they offer $1500 scholarships each year. They fund it through raffling off…a gun. I bought two tickets there. As they were joking about my lack of a gun, they also started razzing a guy walking past behind me. “Why don’t you enter, you will a (forgive my ignorance about the caliber)” The guy replied: “I already have four of those and three of (the second prize)!”
It seems the top form of entertainment during the summer is shooting ground squirrels. There was a guy with a full-on folding two-person deer stand complete with cover to keep you out of the sun set up in the first field outside of town. Parked his pickup under the stand. He’s up there with a cooler, huge scope and a rifle. He was there all day.
I think the drought is making the population of “squeaks” explode. Ground that would normally be too wet for them to tunnel through is now bone dry. This means they dig into the irrigation ditches and cause flooding whenever we get some rain. Haven’t had a problem caching yet with angry property owners caching.
