      I’m getting bored of staring at my feet…only one of which I can see clearly. Sigh 🙁

          Thanks for the well wishes…surgery apparently went well although I won’t be seeing anything out of that eye for week or two. When I had a retinal detachment in my right eye seven years ago, I lost about a third of my peripheral vision. It looks like I’ll have better luck with this one…knock on wood. The good part was they suck the vitreous out during surgery so I don’t have that monster floater in there any more. I know how Trekkin’ feels!
          The surgeon used a lazer to spot weld the retina in place and placed a gas bubble in there to hold it in place. I have to sleep face down and am ending up staring at my feet a lot until it dissipates.
          Another of life’s great adventures 🙂

              Yikes! Scared me 🙂
              Which reminds me…I found an M150 in a cache this week…turned it in to a park ranger who said he drowns those in a bucket of water when they occasionally turn up.

                That’s why we’re foregoing grilling this evening…there’s a restaurant just down the road…probably don’t have it on their menu though:)

                  Rained all night and morning here at Lake Wissota SP…same thing happened a couple of weeks ago at Penninsula…just can’t catch a break!
                  No peacock sightings here though…heard they taste like chicken??! 🙂

                      Done celebrating the granddaughter’s 3rd birthday…heading off to Lake Wissota and hoping for good weather for a couple of days…maybe get a few caches on the treasure quest. Arghhh!

                        I’ve sent out 6 of my personal geocoins and they’re doing fantastic…Germany, Sweden, Finland, Australia, British Columbia, Hawaii, Texas, Arizona, etc. They’ve been to a number of events including a Mega in Australia. I’m really surprised cuz coins go missing pretty quickly…guess mine is too ugly 🙂

                          OMG! What a shocker!!! Am so sad for Vicki and Bill’s family. It seemed like just a couple of years ago they spent their anniversary in Oconto caching the Yellow Brick Road. Like everyone in the caching community, I’m going to miss him 🙁

                            Bring up the Google website on your computer, type in your unit, and look for the owner’s manual. There should be a downloadable copy that would help you. I don’t have a Magellan but I do have a Garmin Nuvi which I can actually load caches on.
