Well my second batch of Robins left the nest today 15 days after hatching.

Now maybe I get my ladder back.

FTP for Thursday the 21st.

So jar, did you quick and move your ladder? Those robins can be busy little birds, if you get my drift!

That was two broods already this summer, I was hoping they were through.

I’m thinking of moving the nest to a platform very near to where it is now and even if it doesn’t get used again this year that may plant a seed for future generations.

Good morning. Looking forward to a non=medical relaxing day!

Five years ago today – probably my most significant and memorable day of geocaching – with the Hitwoman.  Who can remember what happened?

Had a long road trip yesterday to get a library book for my daughter and (unplanned until I got a call from my wife) get carpet cleaner.

I arrived an hour too early for the library, so CACHE TIME! Placed a few and had a strange experience. The only civilian deaths during WWII occurred east of here, due to a Japanese Balloon Bomb. There is a memorial and I figured that would be a great place for a solve on site puzzle. Got out there, looked around and took pictures, then spotted a great place for a cache. As I went to place my container, I found one. There was already a cache there! But I didn’t recall seeing one on the app. Well, I’ve found plenty of archived caches that were never removed, so I picked it up, placed my new one in a more secure location and headed back to the library.

Along the way, there was another location that just needed a cache, and I had a backpack full of containers… Well, the first one I put in place slide down the wooded planks. I peered down the structure and spotted another cache already there. The CO must’ve archived a bunch of caches out here! I picked that one up, put a new container in place and headed on down the gravel road. Then the big “OK” that was painted on the side of the structure rang a bell. I called up the caching app and realized I had picked up not one, but two, active caches and drove off with them! Ooops. I had them mentally west of my location and never really connected them with this area. Well, time to do a little maintenance on the containers and replace them.

Back to the library, with a few more stops to hide some.

Get to the library, and the lady working there is a mom of one of my students and it’s her first day of work. We look around the place for the requested book and finally find it, misplaced in the shelves. As I’m getting into the car to come home, my wife calls and said she needs more carpet cleaner. The choices are driving 50 miles to KF or 40 miles to Lakeview. She says go to Lakeview – hey, I have one more cache to find there!

Found the one and only jug of carpet cleaner in Lakeview and back to home. Time to type up the caches I placed and…what’s with the red circles next to a couple of my hides? Fire up the app again and I realize I drove past a bunch of caches and didn’t look for them. Once again, I had them west of where I was driving. Guess that gives me a reason to go back there and place more!

The best sig is no sig.

Something in a marsh?

Was that the day that I remember someone on TV telling the police about a lady borrowing his ladder for something in the park?

Yes! …and listening to this guy mess up in the courtroom almost had me believing that we did something wrong.

Not this day, but I do recall a time in a marsh when someone (cough, Marie, cough) veered off the snow covered trail, a cracking sound was heard, she descended a few inches, then the stench of rotten marsh water permeated our noses. Fun times.
