We drove out to the coast on Saturday. It was really nice. We had lunch at an establishment that hosts a letterbox and that was our easiest find ever. We dropped off a "hitch hiker" - a travelling letterbox there too. Then we headed out to find another box across town and were disappointed when we couldn't find it. But we found the next one we looked for, then we called it a day.
It wasn't a very nice day for letterboxing or being outside at all for that matter. It was so windy and cold that the rain felt like icy pellets being hurled at us. My DH stayed with Jack in the car while I searched for the boxes. We didn't want him getting all cold and wet and uncomfortable just to end up sitting in the car another 3 hours to get home.
I'd just love to stay the weekend out there. Find some cheap motel (there are plenty of them) and make it a base for our letterboxing excursions. Maybe we'll do that this summer some time.
We never did celebrate our anniversary this year since the car died at that time. I didn't want to spend any money since we needed to buy a new (to us) car. It's also not a great time of the year to go away for the weekend or anything because it's smack dab in the middle of winter. We're not into any winter activities really although I'm sure there's something to do somewhere around here.
Well I'm going to get going. Catch ya on the flip side.

OOooo Cassie, i wanted to do the letterbox thingy so badly this week but it's been raining all week :(
"A" has a week off for easter break, hope we'll have a weekend without rain to have a go :o)
Ahhh, well you'll get a chance sooner or later. I'm sure you'll have fun :)
My wife is getting sick now. I blame you. Not that you had anything to do with it, what with your being 2K miles away, but I need to blame someone, and it can't be me.
That's fine. You can blame me but you need to know it's really mom's fault.
Just popped in to wish you and your family a Happy Easter. I bet Jack has a blast!!
Excuse me? I did not make anyone sick. How dare you? And after all I've done for you! I nurtured you in my womb for nine long months, went under the knife to give you life, suckled you at my breast, and sacrificed my youth for you...
Well if we're arbitrarily blaming someone I figure better you than me.
