In Which the Whole Family Comes to Florida

I love to watch the ocean. The waves come ashore with so much force, and there's always a strong wind. There is forceful energy all around.

Wait a second! Aren't these caches supposed to be on public property??


Dylan turned eleven years old on December 17. The kids went to play laser tag for his birthday party. Afterwards, they had pizza, ice cream and cake and presents. I think they all had a super time - and the laser tag really wore them out.

Dining room tables are good for more than dining.

More caching

Dylan got new parts for his Battleground game. He and his Dad are checking it out.

Here's a good Battleground set-up

Dylan is ready to win


The day after Christmas Dick and I went geocaching and met everyone for lunch at Duffy's of downtown Stuart. Then we were all off to see the ocean and play on the beach. It was a very windy day, and the temperature was really nice - moderate. The beach we went to is right next to the House of Refuge. Dylan says that this beach gives Florida beaches a bad name because it's rocky and full of shells - but I thought it was wonderful and beautiful, and Dylan enjoyed the tunnel he found in the rocks!
