St. Mary's Pictures

Last Saturday, we drove up past Idaho Springs to a spot called St. Mary's Glacier.

Here are some pictures.

Geocaching up to St Mary's Glacier

When I was typing up my Article about Letterboxing post yesterday, I realized that it had really been a long time since we had been geocaching. We actually tried to go two weekends ago when Grandma and Grandpa Shepard were visiting, but the battery ran out on our GPS right at the beginning of our hike. Since then, I've added a couple of fresh batteries to our Geocaching pack so this would not happen to us again.

Before that attempt, the last time we had been geocaching was way back in April on our Geocaching Bike Ride.

Before that, the last time I blogged about purposely geocaching was back in 2009 with Valley of Fire. We have actually done geocaching that I have not blogged about, but really not that much.

Yesterday, I decided to load up my GPS with a few stops on a hike up to St. Mary's Glacier.

Some Family Pictures

Recently, I noticed that it had been quite awhile since I posted on a topic other than beer. I have done those monthly "look-what-people-are-viewing" posts, but other than those (which also do deal quite a bit with beer-related content), it has been a long time.

This blog started out as a personal blog and talked a lot about things the family was doing together. I think there are some readers who probably miss that. The last "kids" blog post was back in October (see Eric the Awful ), and of course that was about a home-brew that was based on a game I play with them.

So, now I am posting some pictures of the family taken since October or so.
