Rufus Oregon and our 1st Geocaching

My husband so wanted to be a part of the treasure finding world. And so with help from MJ (who is also the one who sent me her yarn spinner and I still LOVE, LOVE it) from our Campground_Crafting Yahoo group. MJ said to sign up at http://www.geocaching.com/ where my did but not a paid member - it's $30 a year. It's not the price but we belong to so many memberships that it does take a toll on the finance each year - so we limit our memberships.

And so Jorge went on-line and research the GEO's in our area. He found 3 but we only ventured out to find one. Using coordinates N450 42.276 W120 43.081 and a backpack filled with drinks, a camera, snacks, my tester and a goodie for the geocaching box and a very sick tummie off we went. LOL yes I was still sick because this was Sunday when we ventured off. Here is their Facebook Fan Page.

And here is what we found: Enjoy the pictures!!











And so we took the deck of cards for our treasure and stuffed everything else back into the geocaching box with one extra thing - our replacement treasure for the next person. What did we leave? Well get your fannies to Rufus and do some geocaching and see. We signed the book and then headed off to watch some fisherman in action. It was a WONDERFUL day and a great memory making for Rufus! This was to be Jorge's thing but I had so much fun that I begged him for more treasure hunting - there are a ton in Rathdrum and so we are looking forward to that this summer.

Getting Closer to Summer Work

I tally our etsy sales in my little accounting booklet and I had forgotten to log yesterdays single sale down. So today as I was about to log our single sale, I happen to look up at the calendar and noted "OMG" its April 5th. A little over a month and we head off to a new adventure for the summer season. A paying gig too!! yahoo... The paying part lol... We are so excited because neither of us have ever been to ID before and so this will be new turf for us.


We will miss this part of the country but we are looking forward to new adventures and meeting new people. Oh this whole RV way of living is awesome. I think by the end of the summer we'll be able to say we have friends on every corner of the USA...


Jorge is working on some little improvements in the rig today. However the list is long for his
 "Honey Do List" and I not thinking it's going to be complete by the time we leave here - but miracles do happen lol... So while I am hearing bang-bang-bang all afternoon and my eyes seem like shutters going rapid speeds I am knitting... I had just finish this hat which has a funny story to it and has freaked some people out because the head is sitting on my table for the world to walk by and see LOL.

I think it's cute....
Jorge and I call it Orange Burst

And not I have put my crochet hooks awhile and have take the knitting needles out and working on something for me... I never make anything for me - it's always for the store these days... Extra income is always needed this time of year... But this time something just for me. A scarf... This is all I was able to get done so far... And I will post when completed  - just a reminder knitting takes a lot longer to do then crocheting. Some will say otherwise but for me it's just sooo...



So tonight will be an early night because I am at wits end and will have a rather large headache I am sure from all of this flipping bang-bang-bang going on in the rig. I am venting here and keeping very quiet because I need this to go away fast - lol...

BLOG FEATURE OF THE DAY:

Sorry

I just received word my boss in the hospital a couple of hours ago and I am sitting on needles and praying she is OK. I am seeing my job flash before my eyes and in a bit a panic. She is one of the kindest person I know... So I am just here to fill in my time with almost empty words...
Asking for prayers!!
