Trees and Geocaching

There hasn’t been a lot of work done on the house lately.  Mostly we’ve been saving money to get the tree removed.  We’ve made it through the permit process, now we just need to get the people out to get it out.  Our neighbor wants to work some sort of deal with his friend that will mill the wood.  Not sure how that will work out.  It will be about $8000 to get the tree removed, so we’ve been cutting spending in other areas.

To get us out and about, Eli and I have started geocaching.  It’s like a treasure hunt-hidden object game-achievement system all rolled into one.  I’ve been enjoying it thoroughly.  So far it has led us to some very beautiful areas that I never knew existed.  I can already tell my future vacations are going to have some geocaching worked into them…
