More geocaching, then monster pictures

En route home yesterday we decided to take in a few more caches. The first one was a little church somewhere in the middle of nowhere. We managed to drive to it all the way, even though there was no road. We ended up on top of a riverside embankment, which was hairy, but manageable. The next one was hidden on an old mining digger and looking for it was fun. I got really filthy and oily, but got it in the end.
The next one was under an ornamental bridge in a rose garden. That one was easy, the last one not so much. We drove up into the hills on an uneven, but nice and hard earth road. When we got to a T junction, Roy parked up and I went left. Unfortunately it must have been to the right, because after about half an hour I gave up and not wanting to take too much advantage of Roy we abandoned this one. No probs, it's not too far from home, I'll be back another day.

At home we had post. Meaghan sent a few more pieces of priceless art from my favourite little monster across the pond, but this time we also had his first school photo from day care, where he looks like a film star. There was also a fridge magnet with his smiling face on, Aahhhhhh!!
Today I have to cover up all the roses as the weather turned really cold. Most mornings it is below zero and it must be the same everywhere in the country as the news are full of massive accidents on the roads. That is the sure fire sign of icy roads as the typically headbanger driver that inhabits the roads in these parts refuses to slow down. :-(
