Once Again - "TIme Passages"...

Honestly, I don't have an excuse.  

I just don't make the time to blog.  Saw a post from a friend and decided to come check it out.

Then, remembered that I have not been here (again) in a long time.

So, Foxhound & I just completed the Geocaching - 31 days of caching Challenge - at least one cache a day for the month of August.  

Fun!  

AND we managed to snag NINE "FTFs" which is amazing because of a cacher in our area who seems to get all of the new caches before I even know about them!

August was one of the few months that we already had every day filled on "the grid".  It was still fun to get at least one cache a day.  

Now, in September, we have many days that have yet to be filled even though we have been caching since November of 2005!  We are doing our best to get those days filled.  School is going to soon get in the way. 

The past week plus has been horrible hot and humid stuff.  Wish it would end soon.  Today however, we had a little rain burst while we were driving to the Mall to enjoy THEIR air-conditioning.  Foxhound was beyond happy! 

October is JAZZ FEST on Catalina. The first three weekends every October.  Last year, we went ON my birthday *I went for FREE* courtesy of the Catalina Express.  I bought tickets for the rest of my family and three tickets to the Noon show as well.  AND the Wooden Nickel Restaurant fed ME for FREE too.  Everyone there that day whose BDay is October 20th had a Birthday Ribbon.  THAT was pretty cool being with so many other "1020's" 
This year, Just Foxhound & I will be going *both for FREE* courtesy of my most favorite Radio Station ***KSBR***  Monday's JazzTrax artist of the day was Craig Chaquico... (oh how I wish he was the show for Oct 5th noon).  I entered on the station' web site.  The next day, I thought I remembered something was happening on that date so I didn't enter.  Same for Wednesday.  BUT, yesterday I get home to a message from Judy Davila (KSBR) saying that I WON!!!!  I looked on the calendars and can't find what ever it was I thought was happening on the 5th.  Roman Street & David Benoit*goin' to Catalina!* 
This will be the forth time I think, I love live music and the venue is so cool - the Casino on Catalina.

That's it for now... gonna escape the heat and go for an Owl Hike this evening.
