+Bubbles&Bonkers Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Will your family even notice you're gone? Will it get you out of doing the dishes? Can you get back before the pie is served?! I likely won't. The weather here is supposed to be teeeeeerrible and I'm a big, fat, weenie. We are also at 999... Quote Link to comment
Rock Chalk Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 Plenty of time for me to cache before dinner is served. Also, I'm dining at a geocacher's house, so they're understanding ;-) Quote Link to comment

I likely won't. The weather here is supposed to be teeeeeerrible and I'm a big, fat, weenie. We are also at 999... Oh now!! It won't be that bad. In the 30s and only an inch or two of snow. I planted one once in a blizzard. People came looking for it in that blizzard. The only way to get over the climate here is to dive in. Try walking across a frozen lake at 20 degrees below zero towing an ice House. Or going through the woods like that. Dress for it and have fun. I think that I will sneak out and get some.

+Path Pacer Posted November 25, 2015 Share Posted November 25, 2015 I'd like to, but I'm going to be in the middle of a snow storm, so probably not. Quote Link to comment

I thought many months ago we all convinced you that cold weather caching isn't so bad! Whoa! You have a great memory! Well, I'm still a weenie, BUT I did actually go winter caching last year. I went out and bought a better, jacket, better gloves, better boots, and long undies. Set me back quite a bit, but I was toasty! (It's still not my favorite thing to do, though.) Maybe I could couch cache?? JK. Quote Link to comment

+CascadeHandmade Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I'd like to sneak out and cache because big family gatherings can get pretty stressful, especially at my Mom's house which is (in my opinion) too small to be hosting such an event anyway. But Mom won't let anybody else host - although we've all offered to many times. I think she just doesn't like to be the one to drive to somebody else's house and prefers that we all come to her. I am considering going caching on Friday, however. The local sporting goods/recreation store is purposely closing for Black Friday - which is usually the biggest shopping day of the year around here. Everyone crowding into the stores hoping to get the best sales. I've always thought it was silly and avoided the shopping anyway, so I'm glad to see this particular store closing their doors for Friday and encouraging folks to go outside instead. If only I could find somebody to go with me. I'm sure my husband will spend the whole weekend in bed watching TV. Quote Link to comment

+lamoracke Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Don't have any caches within 5 miles of my flight to dinner path so won't be today for me, but I would have no problem getting one otherwise. Quote Link to comment
+Harry Dolphin Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Went to the cemetery today. Found five C&D magnetic keyholders on the way back home. Will probably have turkey picadillo for din din. Quote Link to comment

Have fun today. Happy Thanks giving Yesssss, I thought your user name was familiar! The bridge-y cache no one could find. Man, that was cold. The blizzard cache I tried to find was in Shakopee. Got out of the car and was practically in hip deep snow. No fun for me! Haha! Good for you for getting out yesterday! Actually we hosted so we were still cleaning and getting all the food prepared. Then we were exhausted and in a turkey coma after. Blah. We are about to hit 1000 so we have to make it good! Quote Link to comment
