Letterboxing Adventure.

I have found a few letterboxes this week. The one at the Rhinelander courthouse was very cool. It looks just like the dome. It was nice to find the box just before dusk and see the dome lit. I also love the carved Hodag with the eagle on top. Sorry for the bad lighting.

A Hunt

I again went hunting for letterboxes tonight. I found two and part of another. It was fun times. The courthouse is so pretty and the stamp the person carved for that box was very impressive. It was a good end to a good day. Elijah finished his stuff for Biology and only has his final test to be done with the class. Thank heavens!

Fun in Rhinelander

The girls came up on Friday night for games. I did not take pictures. Bad Alice. I did, however, take pictures today of the adventures Marla, Jeanette and I had around the city. We had planned to play disc golf but there was a tournament going on at the course. So we decided to go letterboxing. It was a good adventure. The pic of Jeanette and Marla in a maze was at the start of our adventure to find two letterboxes. Then we headed over to the Oneida County Fair. It actually was pretty fun for the po dunk kinda fair it is around here. I enjoyed the log rolling contest, animals, butter lathered corn on the cob and dunking a police officer in the dunk tank. You can see how excited I am before I threw the first ball. I missed four times and then was permitted to walk up two steps...then I finally go him! We also did some shopping downtown! It was very fun to have Marla and Jeanette stay the night last night(Marla and I talked til two a.m.) and to be able to play today.

Random Pics

Pics from a bike ride one evening. I actually saw three fawns and two does even though you only see two fawns and one doe in the picture. The sunset was phenominal Thursday. That is my favorite bench. The turkeys(it is like a Where's Waldo? Find them) were seen on the way back from dropping the niece and nephew off half way on Friday.

Life.

Elijah and I are doing a lot of schooling this week. He spends about four hours a day in front of the computer. I sit next to him mainly for moral support. On occasion he needs help to organize what he has to do and where to find information. I do a lot of cruising the internet. Yesterday, I looked at houses for a few hours. I think I am going to start saving some money to put a down payment down one of these days. That is crazy, no? That means I would have to admit that I am settling down in Utah. Boo! :)

The picture from Wausau Mine Co. just made me laugh. Do I mention much about Brett Farve every year? Yep, he's and idiot still...just wanted to put that out there. I am glad I will be five rows from the field on the 14th to see Aaron Rodgers. He is much cuter than Brett and actually, last year had a better year. He doesn't get much press for it because of the shadow he is under. One day that shadow will go away!

Enough about that.

We had to dissect a flower yesterday and find a bunch of seeds. The past few days we did an experiment about yeast growth and I thought the bottles looked pretty with the different balloons. Science is life around here lately!

Wednesdays have always been taco night at Pat's Tavern for our family. Last night was no different. It was yummy!

We won our softball game on Tuesday. It had been three weeks since we last played thanks to the rain. It was nice to get out even though it was so humid my clothes felt as if I had showered in them! The next two weeks we have double headers. Crazy to think that the day after the last games I will hop onto a plane back to Salt Lake. Summer is going much too fast!
