Geocacher Language : What Are They Saying?
Geocacher language may seem a little odd to a muggle so I am providing some explanation of a few terms often used in the geocacher language.
Just whatever we feel like rambling about
Spring Cleaning In Late Summer
Spring Cleaning seems to have kicked into high gear all around Crazy Dave’s Crew. We are cleaning, not only the house, but almost every activity we are involved in is getting an update.
Parenting : Making the Tough Decisions
Tough decisions are just part of being a good parent. Many times you are the only one that understands your reasoning for those decisions. Most of the time you get no praise for making those tough decisions, but, as a good parent, you still have to make them!
A Chicken with Its Head Cut Off
Have you ever wondered what was meant when someone said they were running around like a chicken with its head cut off? I think I have figured it out and now I am going to show you what it means.
Children – Whistle Stop on the Train of Thought
I thought I was going to cry in church today. David and I were sitting in the adult class when the children’s teacher came to get David. I sat there, mindless of the lesson, frozen and afraid. Memories. Feelings.
What Do You Get Out Of Geocaching?
What do you get out of geocaching?
Do you really want to know what I get out of geocaching?
I know geocaching is not for everyone, but why do I always get strange looks from my muggle(a non-geocacher) friends and associates when they find out I am geocaching? I mean, you’d think I was doing drugs or joining a cult with the looks and questions I get sometimes. For some reason, folks sometimes become very concerned about my mental state.
Protective – Whistle Stops on the Train of Thought
Am I protective of my children? YES, I have my reasons!
My children are trouble. Make no mistake about that. But they have moments that make your heart swell and almost hurt, you’re so full of love, pride and admiration.
Shelby’s Last Day – Whistle Stops on the Train of Thought
Thursday, April 16, 2008 — It’s a date I will always remember. Fortunately, it doesn’t figure as prominently as it once did.
That morning, my six-year-old daughter, who’d been undergoing treatment for Crohn’s Disease (which turned out to actually be Ulcerative Colitis) woke up with a terrible fever. She was moaning and bumping into walls. We rushed her into the tub to get fever down. Called Pediatric GI answering service. The doctor on call said to go ahead and take her into ER so blood work could be started but probably nothing. Plan on seeing her Pediatric GI after leaving ER.
When Geocaching Goes Wrong
Geocaching goes wrong sometimes, when you spend as much time caching as we do.
Last Sunday, I decided to get the family out to enjoy the gorgeous weather we are having. We headed over to Collegedale for a short walk on the Greenway to grab three geocaches. After we parked near the Imagination Station, a wonderful little park near the city hall, we got the video camera out and prepared for our hike to the first geocache (GC6EPH7 – Collegedale’s Veterans Park)
