(GCR584) Hard Cold Cache by eschwartz

We had a quiet Sunday morning. I read the newspaper and drank some coffee. I got the kids fed and the dog was put out. Everything was good.

Liz went to Target for some shopping while I took Petie and the kids geocaching. We found one out of two. We abandoned the search for the second long before we got anywhere close to it. The kids and I had been hiking for a while — it was a mile or so through the woods. We went up some very steep slopes and came down one cliff. By the time we got to the geocache the smaller people were starting to get whiney and crabby so with only a quarter of a mile to go I called off the hunt for the second cache.

All in all, I had a good time geocaching with the kids. Its been a long time since we’ve been and it turns out that I missed it a little. I’ve got some more caches lined up that me and the kids will go after next weekend and see if we can’t kick start this hobby.

Instead they played on a playground for about 15 minutes. Finally we headed home and it was a long walk. They did well, I have to say. Afterwards we swung by Kelly’s for roastbeef, grilled cheese and hotdogs. It was a nice family-type of event.

The Patriots lost to Kansas City - ugh. What an awful game. It was even worse than the 26-16 score suggests.

Since I didn’t get a chance to catch up with my folks on Thanksgiving I took some time on Sunday to talk with them. I also tried to speak to my brother but he wasn’t able to get away during his cross-country trip to Orlando.
