We did a bunch of firsts today...first hike of the year with the local botanical society, first geocache of the year, and first insulator purchase of the year. Someone answered my ad in the paper today (see [id=582499093] for the insulators).

We were talking to the seller about the other stuff in his basement, and it turns out he is a retired surveyor, and when we told him that we looked for survey markers during our geocaching, he gave us 2 unused survey markers, which was really nice of him. I love the different people we meet through our ad.
