Congratulations, Mike. You’ve been pounding the woods pretty regularly lately. And thanks for putting some new ones out in the area…and for not making them engineering puzzles :bartrod:

Congratulations on the big 5K milestone, Dave…but when you post a photo of 5000 smiles, you’re actually supposed to smile yourself 😀

IDIOT SIGHTING
I handed the teller @ my bank a withdrawal slip for $400.00
I said “May I have large bills, please.”
She looked at me and said “I’m sorry sir, all the bills are the same size.”
When I got up off the floor I explained it to her….

Looking forward to the addition! Am I anticipating a “Horse of a Different Color”?

And miracle of all miracles….Bessie popped up in a Texas cache today. It had been in the hands of a cacher since 9/25/09. His log reads:
“We found it! And I dropped a coin. The story behind the coin is I recently moved to Texas. Unpacked a box…and oops…I had it with me…for a long time. This coin unfortunately did not want to leave the state of Wisconsin. So if you grab it, please start taking it north.”
That’s two GC’s in the past several months that had been feared lost but have reappeared. Maybe there’s hope yet for the others I have missing 🙂

A woman in London brought a very limp duck into a veterinary
surgeon. As she laid her pet on the table, the vet
pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird’s
chest.
After a moment or two, the vet shook his head and
sadly said, “I’m sorry, your duck, Cuddles, has
passed away.”
The distressed woman wailed, “Are you sure?”
“Yes, I am sure. Your duck is dead,” replied the
vet..
“How can you be so sure?” she protested. “I mean
you haven’t done any testing on him or anything.
He might just be in a coma or something.”
The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left the
room. He returned a few minutes later with a black
Labrador Retriever. As the duck’s owner looked on
in amazement, the dog stood on his hind legs, put his
front paws on the examination table and sniffed the
duck from top to bottom. He then looked up at the
vet with sad eyes and shook his head.
The vet patted the dog on the head and took it out
of the room. A few minutes later he returned with
a cat. The cat jumped on the table and also delicately
sniffed the bird from head to foot. The cat sat back
on its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly and
strolled out of the room.
The vet looked at the woman and said, “I’m sorry,
but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably,
a dead duck.”
The vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys
and produced a bill, which he handed to the woman..
The duck’s owner, still in shock, took the bill. “£150!”
she cried, “£150 just to tell me my duck is dead!”
The vet shrugged, “I’m sorry. If you had just taken my
word for it, the bill would have been £20, but with the
Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it’s now £150.” 😆
