Tom, Papa and the boys have been out trying to find caches. Geocaching is a treasure or scavenger hunt using a Global Positioning System (GPS). Check out http://www.geocaching.com/ for more information.
The first couple of days they went out looking for caches and couldn't find anything. They went out one afternoon with Papa and found two caches. These were small finds that included only a log sheet to document the find. The boys had great fun and it really didn't matter that it was just a log sheet. Papa bought geo coins that have a serial number for tracking. They didn't find any of those types of caches, but I'm sure they will be on the lookout for them now. I guess you can track these geo coins through the website and find out where they are.
Here are a few pics:

Fort Collins' Flea Markets
Today is Papa's last day visiting. He leaves tomorrow to go home. We went to Fort Collins, CO for the day. They have Flea Market/Antique row which includes about 4 or 5 stores all within walking distance of each other. It was a lot of fun shopping around. We didn't find anything to buy but we really enjoyed looking. We ended up eating Taco Bell for lunch and then went to Best Buy for a bit. Tommy can't pass up the chance to enter a Best Buy.
Last night, we had dinner at Old Chicago. Here's a pic to document the moment:
Random stuff: Tom found a screw in one of my brand new tires. Ugh. He was able to pull it out. Thank goodness it wasn't too deep. All this construction around the neighborhood and near my work....it's no wonder.
