Geocaching and good ol' Jeeves and Wooster

So we did our geocashing last night. Not very successfully though. In the end we attributed it to the darkness of the late hour. But we still had a TON of fun! Embarrassingly enough, I've never really used a GIS. I'm a geography freak, but have never had the chance to really use one! One of my favorite parts of the evening was seeing Brent and Tanya's kids all bundled up in jackets and coats, running around helping us find the stuff. I love little kids in coats! They're so cute!

After a fun, but fruitless search, we went back to Brent and Tanya's house and watched Jeeves and Wooster. Now, for all you who haven't watched this British comedy yet, WATCH IT NOW!!! The TV show is based on the Jeeves and Wooster books by P.G. Wodehose. And for any of you who haven't read those books, READ THEM NOW!!! P.G. Wodehouse is a master of comedy, and the TV show does the books proud! Each episode is based around Bertie Wooster (a rich, playboy type) getting into trouble once or twice, and then Jeeves (his genius valet, or personal assistant) comes to the rescue and solves all the problems. My favorite part is how oblivious Wooster is to his own stupidity. He always thinks he's so clever, yet he gets into so much trouble!



In other news, we took Willow to the vet on Wednesday to get her two front paws declawed. She had been doing pretty well with not really using her claws on anything she wasn't supposed to, but lately, she's been clawing the carpet, our hands (not too roughly, but it doesn't have to be too rough for it to hurt!), and using her claws to climb up on furniture. So we decided it was time. Our vet, Blayney Vet Clinic was great! $90 for all the essentials and two nights boarding! We picked her up Friday morning and she's doing great! I love my Willow!
