Geocaching

WELL.

We are off to a bumpy start. We found 3 and failed to find 2. Our username on geocaching.com is lostcheerio (wow) so we have recorded our finds and non-finds there. Benny has decided that whenever he finds "treasure" he will pick out a treasure that Sadie will like. This breaks my heart with sweetness, he is such a nice boy and good brother. So he's found her two sparkling necklaces and a McToy from Chicken Little (Runt). When we took the McToy we left another McToy (from Cars, natch). The necklaces... in one we left a little violin pin I had made out of sculpey, and in another one we left a toddler hat I made. And we left little fabric yo-yos in the 3 caches we found -- that will be our dorky calling card because I am a dork.

We have not been able to find two of the ones we went looking for -- one yesterday and one today. They were just too hidden, I guess, or we are too newbish.

If you do geocaching, send me your username so I can check you out! Kristen and Rob, this means you too! Still finding my way around the geocaching site. I also bookcrossinged my copy of Karen Brennan's book today -- at a local Starbuck's.

Also K&R -- I picked up a travel bug in one of the caches, and I am going to send it to Utah when I send your pants, Irene's pajamas, and Rhys' underwear. The only person who didn't leave me a piece of clothing was Mrs. Kristen but WAIT A MINUTE -- HEY -- did one of you DELIGHTFUL PEOPLE send me this pearl cotton from this place in WISCONSIN!?!??! DID YOU DO THAT YOU DELICIOUS PEOPLE? Hmm?
