Tuesday............

and time to get caught up on our domestic chores. Got the laundry done and then spent the rest of the afternoon just kicking back and feeding our faces. Becky put on her hiking shoes and wandered around the neighborhood for nearly two miles today. Temperature about 73 today so I snoozed outside while she hiked. Think Applebees was offering a "free lunch" to veterans; but, didn't even go down for that (mainly because I forgot about it).

Went to Old Folks Day yesterday and found out that they aren't catering to us old folks because of some food/fund drive. Won't start giving us our $10.00 until December 22. Real Bummer! Hope their Monday's go down the tube!

Gotta start placing some geocaches out there this week.........been too busy hunting other ones down to place any. Need to get to the bank and pick up a handful of $2.00 bills........I always leave a $2.00 bill for the FTF. Got the idea from the Retired Professor in California...........he has now placed about 740 caches and always leave a deuce for the FTF. Guy must be really nutso.

Our "cool" spell is going to be over with starting tomorrow, temperature expected to be in the high 70s and then it'll creep back up to the mid 80s for the rest of the week. Gotta admit, the 80s sounds pretty good to me............guess we've gotten acclimated.

Gas prices getting a little lower every other day or so; but, we're still above the national average. Think the lowest price around here is something like $2.43.

That's about it for now. W&B

Oh yeah.......a post script. Reported earlier about trying to get some mapping software to work with my new GPS receiver. Played around with a program for two days and finally got it to work........a minor victory for the "little guy".
