...and all that Jazz, a geocaching meet up

Saturday was just an all around amazing day, and what is the best way to end an awesome day?  With a Western North Carolina Geocachers group event, of course!  A big thank you to AtlassYMM and ScouterMom for setting up what turned out to be one of the best events our little group has had in a while!

With 26 people in attendance, and a delicious cake to mark the 4,000 cache milestone of our fellow member debaere, there was no excuse for anyone not have had a great time! It was also a pleasure to have geocachers drive all the way from Durham - over a 3 hour drive away- just to spend this special time with us!


The fun was only amplified by random conversations to be heard at a certain table filled with trouble makers (you know who you are!) such as: threatening a minor with forced castration, getting your hair caught in your arm pits while you are trying to sleep, the improvement of any and all foods by adding layers of cake, and a very hearty shout by one member of "ooops, that wasn't a leg!"



There were also some very generous door prize donations from various members, though the drawing was of course rigged by the 4 children all of whom, without exception, seemed to have pulled out their own numbers at one point. But when you are as cute as that, you can get away with just about anything, so no one really felt the need to call Shenanigans.

All in all, it seems that the laughs and smiles were as free flowing as the sweet tea and no one went home sad or hungry as far as I could tell.  I am definitely looking forward to our group's next gathering, which should be to celebrate Valentine's Day with a delicious pizza pie party on February 14!!  Can't wait to see what these maniacs pull out of their hats for that day!
