Belated Happy Father's Day

Hope all of you fathers had a good day. We had a bar-b-que with Grandpa, Grandma, Rob and Buddy. The girls watched Calum while Don and I got to go out to see a movie.

We had a good weekend. We went to the New Westminster Quay - Calum wanted to go to the casino but decided to play on the boat instead. He and Dad had a good laugh on the way home. We did some reconnaissance work for Don on Saturday. We drove around downtown and got to see a lot of sights. We also went geocaching this weekend. We found 2 caches, Calum spotted one by himself. We couldn't find one.....think it's missing.

We've got a busy couple of weeks ahead so we may not be posting much. If I forget, happy anniversary Mom and Dad (June 23). I hear they may go camping. We will wish for good weather.

Busy weekend

We had a busy weekend. The girls were working (both very busy) and Don, Calum and I kept pretty busy despite the rain. Yesterday I got my present early - a GPS. I've wanted one for awhile, as we've wanted to start geocaching. As soon as we got it Calum and I tried it out (never used a GPS before). We loved being able to tell Don what speed we were going, to tell Dakota how high above sea level we were and Calum liked being able to see where we were in relation to where Grandpa, Grandma and Buddy live.

Today Don, Calum and I went to Central Park (in Burnaby) to try it out. We tried to find 3 sites. Geocaches are small hidden boxes (can vary in size from a film canister to a tupperware container) that people hide small items in and provide GPS coordinates and hints for you to find them. These are all posted on the web at http://www.geocaching.com/. We told Calum that we were looking for treasure and he quite liked that idea. We found one and had a lot of fun doing it. The second one we looked for may have been muggled (disturbed by non-geocacher) because we couldn't find it and the third one we were close to but Calum had enough and wanted to go home. We had fun in Central Park though, we saw a lot of squirrels, ducks and dogs.
