Weekend Roundup and Statistics

A lot happened this weekend. Yesterday I took out SuperPizzaBoy’s swing set. He is now 11 I put it up for his third birthday so it was kind of sad, but hey he’s growing up so that is great. Then we gathered up Nana and her friend Patty and went to eat Mexican food!

Patty and Sweetie had Margariata’s.

Afterwards Sweetie and I went some friends, including fellow bloggers Baloney, Dawn, and Michelle ( I had never met Michelle before but we have been blogging friends for quite a while. ) to a comedy club. It was an improv sort of thing and it was hilarious. Sweetie and I don’t get out too much. Lots of young women were running around with too much makeup and not enough clothes. Sorry no pictures. We had a great time.

We all stumbled out of bed way too late to go to church but we made it to Sunday School. Afterward Sweetie went to a wedding shower and SuperPizzaBoy and I went geocaching. We looked for five and found five which is a good outing. We find a little different kind of cache. Instead of hidden box it was a wanted poster hanging on a pole. Can’t tell you what cache. Cachers go to all sorts of trouble to hide them for me to just blab which one this is. Sorry, that’s the way it is.

Speaking of geocaching I have recompiled my numbers using my special GSAK (“Geocaching Swiss Army Knife”) software. Scroll way on down to the bottom of the main blog page, past my old blogs and the crap I put on the side bar. You will find a Niagra Falls of numbers and graphs, and that is the summary report. Go take a look but come back. I tried to put it on a daily post but it was a mess.

Of course gecocaching is not about numbers. No, not at all!! Who would think of such a thing. Nobody I know that caches pays the slightest bit of attention to their numbers. Talking about your numbers is like talking about how much money you make. So nobody cares about their numbers, not the slightest bit.

So, here are a few of mine:

834 geocaches found. 382 of them within 10 miles of home! Tulsa has a lots of caches!
654 caches found in Oklahoma.

43,522 total miles between caches. That is lots of driving (and a lot of gasoline!), and a little flying.

Caches found that are no longer active 286. Many caches last just a year or two.

At my historic rate of caching (about 0.4 finds per calendar day) I am scheduled to reach 1000 on Dec 10, 2010. Actuall, I think that I will get to a thousand by late Spring 2010.

Do you have a hobby that you are passionate about? Lets hear it. I promise not to tell.
