Geocaching class
Current mood:geeky
So last night, Dan and I went to a geocaching event. It was a puzzle class to help figure out/decipher clues that are in the “logs” of each cache.
Let me just say – the first thing I thought of was “I’m in a room with a bunch of geeks!” (yes, hubby is considered my geocaching geek). Fortunately, there are much more geekier geocachers than my hubby!
The presenter started talking about the different ciphers that were used in some local caches – OMG! – who knew all of these different ciphers were out there! Morse code based, binary, hidden clues in the HTTP source code, hidden tags in pictures, logical, etc. Too bad I didn’t go into the CIA, then maybe this wouldn’t have been new to me!
It was kind of cool to find out all of these different ciphers out there. The best thing – there are cheats all over the internet! You know that’s the only way I’m going to figure them out!
Anyway, I’ll have to try one. At least if Dan and I work together on one, we might be able to figure it out (like Dan couldn’t it figure out by himself – the puzzleman that he is)!

Busy, successful day!

Busy, successful day!
Great Strides was a success today! Luckily the rain held off! That was the biggest concern. We bidded on 2 items in the silent auction and won them. We know how to win at a silent auction since we've done a couple of them - just wait until the last minute and put the highest bid in.
We won a signed Capitals Young Guns poster (Green, Semin, Ovie and Backstrom) and Creative Memories (scrapbooking) items. Also got our 4 rose bushes.
Esa was so tired at the end, but she keeps going. She layed down for a while when we got home, but that's been it. We were surprised when she wanted to go for an evening walk.
When we got home, we had dinner and then over to Bloom for our second shopping triple coupon trip! We spent about $78, but saved $74! NICE! We should be set for awhile.
