I ordered some stuff from CacheAdvance last Thursday and it was on my doorstep today. Four days from Spokane, WA to Aiken, SC, two thousand six hundred miles to the southeast. That is because they sent it via the USPS not UPS. The minions of the Postal Service keep on chugging over the weekend unlike the United Parcel Service, which seems to stop everything and take a couple days off.
Over the weekend we found 9 caches, three Saturday and six on Sunday which is about what we consider just right for the amount of time we want to invest on this “hobby” during the summer. The trouble with that total was that it left us sitting at 149, an oh so uneven mark. Tonight after dinner we went out to get just one. Now things are better balanced here at the Bogardus Manor.
We hit Wally World on the way back to peruse the Clearance Aisle to find swag for placing in caches found or to put in the new Lock and Lock from Spokane. I also picked up some flat olive and tan paint in spray cans for cammoing my fireman’s hat for another hide I’m working on.
I think I’m going to have to get a Geocaching category for sidebar and search some linkage to put over there. I’ve already got ton of bookmarks on the subject, but now I need to go out and find a bunch of Geobloggers…
