We left Woodburn at 10:00 and were parked at the Keizer Elks Lodge at 11:00. It was another short travel day, the kind Bill likes.
By the time I got some geocaches loaded into both Garmins and we ate lunch, the day had warmed up quite a bit. We found three caches, but had two DNFs to go along with them. We are having way too many of that kind lately.
I spent part of the evening working on some baskets that I’ve been planning to make. When we were in Pendleton at the Woolen Mill, I bought some of the scraps cut from the blankets as they are taken of the loom. I had trouble remembering how I had done them about 14 years ago. Today I spent time trying several ways to do them and I think I may have solved a problem or two. It is going to involve trimming the strips of yarn which will be time consuming, but necessary. I’m using a very large crochet hook this time. Last time, I used my fingers as hooks, but it didn’t work so well this time. Old age has set in!
Travel totals: Mileage today, 17---Caches, 3.
