Memorial Weekend Rainy Day Planning

>> Monday, May 31, 2010


We were looking forward to Memorial Weekend  not so much the rain we were predicted to get all weekend though.  We decided to make a few runs on Saturday to pick up some items to make a few of our Birthday Blessing gifts since we were gonna spend a lot of time indoors this Holiday Weekend.

Of course we had to get a Geocache fix in since we had not been in a while.


Blayke left this motorcycle and Mia a Petshop in exchange for a Pearl Pendant and bouncing balls.
We left TB's Red Mini Capsule Geocoin and Kookie Koala.

We picked up the following two trackables:

MC's Silver Light Geocoin -Sanibel Island Lighthouse in Florida -Current GOAL: This coin's mission is to visit at least one cache in each of the 50 US state capitals. It was originally placed in a cache in North Carolina on 7/4/08.  It has traveled 2,287 Miles.  We are going to plan a day trip to drop it in Columbia SC in the near future since it has not been to that state capitol yet.


"Ormoc, Philippines" Unite for Diabetes Travel Bug - Current GOAL: The goal for this Unite For Diabetes Travel Bug is to raise awareness of diabetes by traveling to Ormoc and within Ormoc, collecting photographs and geocaching logs along the way.  This TB was originally placed in a cache in Southern England on 12/28/06.   It has travelled 29,089 miles.

This one was a little special to me since my mother has had diabetes for over ten years now.  TB's like this are nice to find to raise awareness at any level.  We will be moving it along shortly.

 We got a little hungry after the caching and shopping so we stopped at a BBQ stand and enjoyed some sandwiches and fresh sqeezed lemonade. Don't know why but my kids have a habit of closing their eyes when they take a bite of anything they are eating.  Almost as if they need to concentrate on their sense of taste to savor each bite.  It's cute!

It looks like the trays they made are coming in handy.
