[Az-Geocaching] Quick update and Question about Flagstaff

[Apryl Clark]

The Red Mnt Cache sounds awesome writing that one down for further investigation as does the Buffalo Park grouping. Hubby isn't too keen on the caching part. He's just along for the back muscles (aka slogging the kid). Thanks for the suggestions!

Will have to check out ShadowAce's suggestions as well....the Aspen Meadow one sounds like it might be right up our league and anything having to do with Sitgreaves is always fun!

Unfortunaly Shadow I'm looking to get out of the heat so you'll have to pass on my AWESOME CITO skills tomorrow. I'll catch ya the next go around. Not too mention I'm still on the prowl for a new garbage picker upper thingy. 

And yes it's been fun "being married" again after 15 months of playing the "singles scene". LOL....now if I could just get him to pick up his clothes...mow the lawn..take out the trash....etc everything'd be swell. LOL
