Caching and Not a Lot More & Then on to Tim's 5/26-6/1/2009

Tuesday Mom and I just hung around the house and didn't do an awful lot. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday we went out and did a little caching. Wednesday we did 13 caches all of which were NRV caches and were along a road, or just off a road that ran from Apalachin down into PA. They were in a cemetary, 4 on bridges, a road sign, 2 in the woods under a mailbox at a bank, and on a guardrail. Thursday was another day of 6 NRV caches in and around Endicott, NY. They were located in a tree near a new restaurant, 3 on guardrails, one under a storm drain frame, one in a cemetery, one at a Veteran's memorial in a tree and the last was in the woods at a local park. That last cache was a bear as you had to climb a steep hill to find the cache and the ground was wet so it was very tough keeping your footing. Friday we finished a series of 6 caches that we had started last May when we were at Scott's. We had 3 left to do and then the final cache. They were all located in old cemeteries in small towns from Apalachin to Barton, NY. and you couldn't do the final cache until you had found the first 6 as each one had a number in it in order to locate the final. They all were quite interesting as most of the cemeteries were very old with lots of old grave sites. The cemeteries we visited today were Asbury Church Cemetery and the church was built in 1822-1823, There are Revolutionary and Civil War veterns in this cemetary. Smithboro Cemetery and State Line Cemetary. Several Revolutionary War veterns are buried here. One of them is Silas Wolcott (1755-1834). He was a bodyguard for George Washington in the winter at Valley Forge.
Friday night we went to Scott's semi-final lacrosse game at home against Corning West who they beat 12-6 and are now headed to the Section 4 finals next Tuesday against Ithaca at Ithaca. Saturday was a quiet day as I worked on the article for the June caching newsletter and Mom took Anna and Caitlyn to the movies and out to lunch. Scott worked on his lax game for next week all day. Sunday Anna had a birthday party to go to so Mom and Cheryl dropped her off and then went shopping. Scott had practice in the afternoon and I watched the Yankees-Indians game. Scott deep fried a turkey for dinner on Sunday which tasted very good, as they always do. Monday morning we packed up and were off to Tim's house and a visit with them. We got there got set up, ran a few errands and when we got back everybody was just getting home and it was really nice to see them all. Melissa and Tim haven't changed much, Rosie has grown like a weed and is now taller than Mom, Erica has lost weight and sure is skinny and Nikki looks about the same, has grown a little and still as cute as ever. We had dinner which was Melissa's great BBQ and then I helped her make cupcakes for a birthday party tomorrow at work and Mom went with Tim to Luke's baseball game. Well I guess your all caught up so we will close and we love you all. Mom & Dad
