Thursday #170....Field Trip....

[zippy-kat]

Zippy, what does that mean? Terry and I were thinking about getting into geocaching once we don't have to work anymore....soon in other words.

Oh you should! It's a ton of fun.... even though I only do it in the fall/winter months. (Too many creepy, crawly, and rattle-y ( ) critters out here in the desert for any other time.) Have you checked out the geocache website? With your adventures, you should pick up a few "traveling bugs."

As for the lingo --- Phred... Oh Phredddd... you want to decipher? Where is he? --- Ah well, here goes...

Thanks Zip. I've briefly checked out the web site, enough to find out it sounded like fun and something that our new life style would be perfect for.

I just thought of something.....sorry Gini.....I think Richard had an inkling that Gini's tree was going to crash and that's why we're camping this week....just think of all the firewood!!! Sorry Gini.

RICHARD is psychic ! Now that's scary... or is it psychedelic? After camping let's not forget to LNBFP... *leave nothing but footprints*

Well good morning everyone! I'll get the camp going this morning. How about some pancakes, bacon and eggs and some piping hot coffee!

Come on Lady you can help gather up the firewood with me. Now where are those matches?

How about green eggs and ham?

When I was a GS we went camping with a group of Boy Scouts (with more than adequate suprevision, I assure you). Anyway, Friday night they made us dinner and Saturday morning we made breakfast. They thought they could gross us out with green spaghetti.

We DID gross them out with green eggs and ham!

Mmmmmm....nothing better than pancakes and bacon made over an open fire.

Phred, we've already got a hand held GPS. It's what we started with long before we got a built-in one in the motorhome. Worked OK hooked to the laptop, but I like the built-in one soooo much better for the motorhome. Kinda hard to lug the motorhome along on a hike though. I don't have time to look into in more depth right now, but when I do get the time, I'll remember that you're "in-the-know" and will talk to you then.

Ok everybody, up and at 'em! It's gonna be another hot and muggy one today, but that's no reason to hide under the covers - UP UP UP!!!! (thought you might like that better the bugle call and "GET UP YOU PUKES")

I don't know Debbie, I rather liked "GET UP YOU PUKES"

We could just bang a couple of metal trash can lids together like cymbals to get everyone up!

Though if you really want to be nasty, LH does know how to play revely on his trumpet.

Have you checked out the Geocaching WEB SITE ?? >>>

Spend some time exploring the Web Site ...
There's sections and Forums explaining the Hobby of Geocaching VERY well!

Do some reading BEFORE you by a GPS Receiver ... you might want to get a
Hand-Held that's from the same family as the Rollin Howze's GPS.
These days the Garmin Line is a major favorite because of warranty, friendly tech support,
and other issues.

I go out with "The GeoMutts" and we pretty much have a blast!
They've actually "spotted" a few caches when I was clue-less!
"We" log our stuff on the web site under "DogDad".
