I wondered how long it would take.
I have not posted anything on here since August 16th and last night I had someone ask me about that. So here I am....trying to keep people happy ;)
The past two weekends I have been really sick with the worst cold I’ve had in a very long time. Waking up with your eye glued shut can’t be a good sign. The cold is so bad, in fact, I actually went to the doctor this week and got some antibiotics. This is the third day I’ve been on those, and I sure hope they kick in soon!
The weekend before I became ill, I was busy one day, and it rained the next. I would deserve this cold if I’d been out geocaching in that, but I wasn’t.
The weekend before that one we had a couple of birthday parties to go to. We were up around Apple Hill, celebrating the 75th birthday of one of the hubby’s many, many aunts. There were well over a hundred people there, and thankfully, the weather was perfect, as the gathering was a surprise, and held in the farm yard. The party was supposed to be over at 4pm and we had planned on hitting a few geocaches on the way home. However, like many others, we stayed until after 6 pm. It was so nice to see all these people someplace other than a funeral palour for a change.After driving down the road a bit, we decided the sun would go down soon, so it was best to skip the cache at St. Elmo’s and head for the other. We went to Moose Creek, which is a lovely little village I wouldn’t mind exploring further someday. The race was on though, as the sun was getting lower. We got to the posted coordinates, which were near the watertower, but even though we stood on the exact spot, we found nothing. We beat around the bushes, stirring up the mosquitoes. Remember, they are hungry at that time of night! Whereever that cache is, it’s well hidden, and probably cleverly, but we ran out of time, light and blood, and had to leave without success. Unfortunately I have no pictures of this place, as the light was low and the time was short.
I do hope to get out again soon. Does anyone know when hunting season starts? Poking around in the woods is not recommended at that time.

Sorry to hear that you are so sick. Here's hoping you'll get well soon! You asked when hunting season starts.. it depends on the game and township. The MNR site should have a downloadable guide with full details. I recall noticing that for some game, "the season" can start as early as Sept 1. But generally, "the season" ends on Dec 15th for most game.
