Labour Day Week 2010 Sunday

Well we drove 622 miles today and arrived in Williamsburg, VA.
We did one cache in North Carolina that was all we had time for.

Labour Day Weekend 2010

Ok so it is Labour day it is back to Virgina. This trip we will be going to Williamsburg. We have a week there and will also do a few day trips. we hope to go to D.C. one day to see the Museum of Natural History. Maybe we will run into Ben Stiller!
SO stay tuned .

Memorial Day weekend.

Kathy will be heading to Indiana to visit family and celebrate 2 graduations. Her nephew from High School and his sister from Drake University with a doctorate in Pharmacology.

We had no one to sit the dogs so I was staying home, but then Lauren moved home and I get to leave for the weekend.
So a geocaching run to New Orleans with Jgooose, Thorny 1 and 1/2 of the Jazzmaster Team.
I'll keep you posted.

 We had a great time and saw a wonderful cache and did complete the power run.
We got 190 caches!
Nothing wrong with the number as we had a blast of a time. We also got a FTF in New Orleans. Replaced 6 caches and many log sheets.Only had the police talk to us once ( in Alabama) drove 1240 miles and spent to nights in a inexpensive hotel. Jgooose got to drive a WWII1943 Willis Jeep! I got #4000 Jgooose got #3000, Thorny1 broke 4200 and Fred got two new state and built his lead in cache numbers.
So Fred summed the trip up:
As products of the 60s and 70’s our influences had acronyms. UNCLE, THRUSH, KAOS, and many military terms that affected our lives. This is the story of a band of brothers that through fate and Geocaching had ironically formed a group of merry men to form C.O.M.B. Many of you are members and agents of this organization and don’t even know it. It’s the highest level, and very “Top Secret”. Anytime you have gotten together with others to do a road trip, or just around your local area, you joined C.O.M.B. It’s being the highest level and most intriguing part of life experiences that will make memories for a lifetime. Watergate – well known term for exposing or bringing to light. C.O.M.B. – Cache On Merry Band. Charter members: Ga Cacher, Jgoose, The Jazzmaster, Thorny1.

Trip to Texas To Visit Family. July 2009

On July 19th I drove to Fate Texas to visit my daughter Heather, daughter Shannon and her Husband Michael and their 2 boys Ben and Will.
Had a nice drive out and a good time visiting everyone.

Well we had a nice trip to GW 7

Over the last six years GeoWoodstock has grown from a small event at a local park to an event that has filled a state park, a fairground and a huge farm. Well for the seventh annual event, we are taking over an entire town. Let me be this first to invite you all to join us as we take over the town of Bell Buckle, Tennessee for a geocaching mega event like no other.



We took the dogs with us they had fun getting out of the house. Drive up was 2.5 hours then stayed there for 4 houes then drove home. We met many new cachers and saw some old friends.

Kathy's Son and Daughter in law, Rob and Jennifer , are having a baby and her name was just chosen...... Lexie Grace Perry !

Time to update.

We had a great busy Thanksgiving and Christmas.

In October we drove to Indiana to see Kathy's Mom and celebrate her brother George and my birthday. 

She flew home and I drove up to Canada to see my Sister's family for Thanksgiving, Oct in 

Canada. We stole fresh onions and potatoes from the fields for dinner, kinda a tradition.

I was able to visit my parents grave and put mums on Mum's, she loved mums, and I love and miss them.

 We had Thanksgiving dinner at the house with my son Colin and Kathy's daughter Lauren.

 

We havd Christmas with Kathy's kids and grandaughter.

Then Christmas morning Kathy flew to Indians to spend Christmas with her Mom, sister and 2 brothers in Indiana. I stayed here to keep the dogs and I had to work. Retail is a hard task master.

 We had this picture taken at Kathy's office Christmas party.

I have accepted a Manager position at the JC Penney in Morrow,GA about 45 miles from our house. Hope the gas doesn't go high again. 

Kathy is doing well at her job and has some great news to give .....but it willl have to wait a week or so....stay tuned.
