Quinn, Dylan, Chase and I packed a bag today and went out to Bragg Creek to do some geocaching today.
As part of my “lose at least a little weight” effort, I have decided that I should get back into hiking in the mountains. So we set off looking for the Bragg Creek Ice Caves but the road to get close to them was closed. Luckily, I had downloaded 10 geocaches in the area “just in case”, so we got had time to look for 5 of them before it got too dark to continue.
We found 4 of the 5, but the fifth one was up a steep slope, on a mucky, icy, trail, at the top of a good 30 meter cliff. I decided I didn’t really want to attempt it with Quinn bouncing off the rocks (having fallen only about a dozen times previously) and the dog yarding me off in all directions. Too risky. Even though we were only about 150 meters from the cache.
The rest of them were really easy, a little walking and that’s all.
It was a good day, but I’m tired now.
I see it’s colder here than elsewhere in the world. Another myth about Canada smashed! We’re getting ready to leave the house to take Tim to school, then Ter to the hospital for his colonoscopy. Any of you boys scheduled yours yet?
I talked to my doctor and he wants to wait until I’m 40. I think Scott’s booked though. Hope Terry has fun!
