Got dad Da Vinci, but I'll probably end up reading it someday.
I got some books, about a half-dozen CDs (one of which I'm listening to right now), and several other great gifts. My dad sent me on a geocaching treasure hunt to find my CDs, though. After finding clues in his hiking boots, water bottle, and even the Jeep outside in the rain, he'd cut me some slack. But no, the clues had a waypoint encrypted in them. So I had to load up the GPSr, walk out in the rain in my PJs and find the "cache" in our driveway, as I was getting drenched. (Pardon me saying, but the coords were horrible.) I finally found the Ziploc with the last clue inside, but not before slmost losing one of my fingers.
Anyways, I had a very Merry Christmas &, hey, its hardly halfway through!
