    Mrs. SL must be in town, because the weather is pretty amazing right now.

    I have done that thrice.  They were not my caches when I found them though.  I adopted them later.

    But you love your daughter, BBG. ;-)

    Most Days.

    I am happy for her.  She seems to be really enjoying her last few weeks of middle school.

    Going to the Brewers game tonight, and we were hoping to get in some area caching before the game, but with the fog and the predicted storms, we might just take our time leaving Sandland. Staying over, so maybe in the morning…

    It  is kind of miserable here as far as the weather: cool, damp, light rain with fog.  At least, you do not have to worry about the game being cancelled.

    Tonight is preview night for Annie, the latest performance for my older daughter.  I get to see it three times this week.  I really dislike Annie.

    Got done working early.  I guess moms are not getting wine.  I think I will take the wife out for dinner.

    I bird flu or whatever is scary.  I am friends with the man in charge of the avians at the Milwaukee County zoo and they have thought about keeping their birds indoors this summer.  He says they will be out.  They will just be cautious.

    It is 47 degrees, mostly cloudy, and damp.  I really do not mind heading to work for 12 hours today.

    I put a picture in my log:

    We put up a hummingbird feeder for the first time last weekend, no visitors yet.  We are adding brightly colored plants this weekend, we hope it helps.

    I saw a horrific motorcycle accident on my way to get the wife from the courthouse. I hope the helmetless gentleman lives.

    Glad to here the grand daughter is doing better.  I bet that was scary.

    I did a little urban birdin’ this morning while grabbing a few geocaches.  I spotted a few baltimore orioles and white crowned sparrows among the usual avians.  I was excited to see  Juneau Pond’s resident black crowned night heron as well.

    Mrs. BBG is deliberating.  I hope it was an interesting case she was able to hear the past few days.

    I just finished watching two rabbits making sweet love in my backyard under my patio table.   Those terrorists will be multiplying soon.

    Bummer, I stayed atop the bluff.  I should have ventured down to the lake to do the earthcache this morning.  I bet I would have seen that owl.

    I escaped to find 1 cache.  I wandered for over an hour.  I enjoyed seeing the blood root emerging from the decaying leaves.  I saw a few serpents and sang “Oklahoma!” to myself as I watched a red tailed hawk making lazy circles in the sky.

    I am building this one for fun.  It most likely will never be placed.   If I placed it, it would most likely be destroyed/stolen in days. Or it would be too hard to keep up on the constant maintenance, it would most likely need.

    Every spring I try to create something fun for the kids to find at school.  This year I have 65 kids.  Last year we did the PVC pipe with a floater cache.  A couple kids got really wet, so that one will not be repeated.  The year before that was ziploc freezer bags wrapped in duct tape with leaves hot glued to them and placed flat on the ground.  I have a bunch of fun cache containers that stay with me.  I have tried to place them over the past few years, but as the Hacks explained a few days ago getting caches approved in Milwaukee Parks isn’t that easy.

    Aluminum works the best.  You still have to add a bit of moisture to your fingers to help complete the circuit.  Initial construction is complete.  It is ready for paint.

    Now, I have time for orchestra rummage sale pricing until they are done getting educated today.  Another fun day off.

    Do you want to have fun?  Ask a hardware store employee, “Which screws do you think will conduct electricity the best?”.  They think you are a bit loco.  I am building the project in the video for my annual geo 101 field day next friday.
