Still Warm in Yuma...............


and we managed to go out and find a few caches today with our friend La84fishn. We were at the golf course for breakfast with our neighbors, Nate and Phyl, when Larry called so we got home as soon as we could to make a trip onto the Bombing Range. A Tribute Cache has been placed for one of our local cachers so we set out to find it and sign the log. Also met a few other cachers as we were leaving. The Cache was a Tribute to lcpc28, another Larry, who has placed 400 caches on the Barry Goldwater Bombing Range. He's quite a craftsman and had built and placed some very unique caches for all of us to enjoy. At the present time he is gravely ill so this cache was placed for him.

Picked up a few more new caches with Larry and then called it a day. Warm but slightly breezy day today............still beat strong winds, rain and snow!!

"B" has her PET scan scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.........we stopped to see her "Witch Doctor" and he gave her some advice and super duper cough medicine so her coughing has subsided and you can see that she is feeling well enough to be tromping around in the desert.

I described her doctor as a "Witch Doctor', with all due respect of course, because his advice was to take the prescription cough medicine and then "rub Vicks vapor rub on her chest, back, throat and even on the soles of her feet and put on some socks before she goes to bed". He said it works for his kids, although he hadn't tried the "feet and socks" trick with them yet. That's when I questioned him about taking advice from a "Witch Doctor". He just howled with laughter! We need more doctors with a sense of humor. This was the same guy who told me he was going to "kick my ass" if I didn't watch my diet to control blood sugar.

That's about it for today. W&B
