Cloudy, 50-55°F. One of the busiest shopping days of the year but I went geocaching first, dinner second, and shopping last because one must have priorities. :) It was raining lightly as I headed out but I knew the rain would stop and it did after the 3rd cache of the day. On my last trip out here, I ended the day in Sicklerville. This time, I went ( Read more... )

Sunny, 50-55°F. Another busy morning. Who knew? I only got out when it was some time in the afternoon, so I figured I would go for the new nearby geocache. Java Time was it. This cache is in the woods off of an unbuilt section of a housing development in Bear. I'm not sure if there'll still be access to that area once the houses are built but it's ( Read more... )

One thing I noticed after doing yesterday's research on HSAs is that the insurance company itself offers a no-fee HSA with Bank of America as the trustee. There is a certain degree of lock-in though. The no-fee part of the deal applies only as long as I keep the same health plan. Also, there is a fee for closing the account. On the other hand, ( Read more... )

Sunny and 70-75°F. Headed south towards Dover with an eye towards finishing more of the First State Challenge (FSC) series of geocaches but got sidetracked into touring western Kent County, near the MD/DE state line. Not necessarily a problem because I was going to visit those out-of-the-way geocaches eventually anyway. Ran into BenamBenam3 and ( Read more... )

Another sunny-and-45°F day. There's been significant snow melt but not quite enough yet in Kent County. At "Kent's Newest", in particular, I was knee-deep in snow once I left the path and entered the woods. That was quite an adventure. The whole area was deep in snow so I had to step on the snow until I saw enough of the outline of a log. By ( Read more... )

Sunny and 22-28°F. Felt like a very cold day because of the wind. This was as much a shopping trip as it was a caching trip. There was no bread left in the house so a quick stop at the Wonder Bakery Outlet in Cheswold was in order. Also went to Big Lots in Dover to use a mailing list coupon. And finally, we stopped at Acme supermarket. This was ( Read more... )

Sunny and 55°F. Compared to last week, this is rather Summer-like weather. Went geocaching down in the Dover/Camden area with some stops in Townsend and Smyrna along the way. Also got some errands done: Dropped off the tree branches at the yard waste collection center on US-13, got another week's supply of bread at the Wonder-Hostess bakery outlet ( Read more... )
