A "because I haven't posted in almost a month" post.

This weekend was one of the more productive in some aspects. Saturday morning Needles and I planed a trip to get some new tires for the Jeep. After a quick trip to the local bank to cash in my accumulation of change we were on our way. After we found out that they didn't have the tires I needed and had to order them we did a little grocery shopping and then a stop at Taco Bell for lunch. When we got home we decided to grill out since it was a nice day. I had to do a little work on the grill so by the time I was done I think we were ready for supper. I grilled out hamburgers while Needles got the sides ready. Tater tots and onions rings and I had baked beans. Shortly after supper we were visited by my Rudy, Brando and the gang. Before long it was time for them to return home. Brando had picked up New Moon and the local Redbox so last night we were able to watch it. It was pretty good for a "Sparkle-pire" movie. Sunday even though I wanted to sleep late started just as early and Saturday with my eyes popping open at just before 7am. I layed in bed until a quarter after and finally had to get out. I started watching our Net Flicks movie until Needles got out of bed. We had plans for lunch at Needles Moms so before long Needles was up and we headed South. After lunch and dessert I wanted to do some scouting before turkey season and Needles wanted to walk with me though the woods and see the property she lived on most of her life but rarely got to see. When we started out it was just slightly raining but by the time we got to the woods the rain and wind had picked up. When we got to the southern property line we were both soaked through. We did jump up several deer on our walk and watched as they ran through the woods and out of our sight. On our return trip we walked the western tree line until we got into the field and then Needles was able to open an umbrella and knock some of the rain off of her. By the time we got back to the house my ears were so cold they felt like they would break off. I think we walked about 2 and a half miles total but walking mostly in the mud and rain we got a pretty good work out. After we got back to the house we warmed up with some coffee. We returned home and since we haven't been geocaching lately and the caches I had placed weren't getting visited very often I decided to archive them. Of the seven caches I had left I archived 6 of them. Since they were archived I needed to get the containers out of the woods. Needles came along with me as we did quick drive bys of the locations to retrieve the containers. It is amazing how cache containers seem to drift a bit from their original locations. I was able to find all of them except one which I think is missing. After we gathered the containers we needed to make a run to L'ville and return the movie Brando had let us borrow. The weekend went fast and it seemed like we were on the go for most of it. The next few weekends will be busy with family visits and turkey season coming up. Also it seems the first few weekends of spring are busy for caching up on things that I let slide over the last few months. Hope everyone had a nice weekend.
