This is for Michael! Thanks for the play day.

It is really sad that I do not blog often. Michael even checks to see if I have blogged. So this blog is for him. Sometimes I feel like nothing is happening in my world. I know that isn't true. Monday Michael took me out for breakfast at "The Wheel" in Leeds. Then we went to Black Ridge to Geo-cache. We took off right before the guardrial where the I-15 turns. We went through the gate. Have you even noticed that there was a gate there? We went first to the north. There were old corrals that were short and tight together. What did they keep in them? My guess was sheep. Then we went south. One of the caches was in a cave. This is a man made cave that leads under I-15, 300 ft into the cave is a cement wall with a 24 in pipe that continues on. The Cache was in the wall. When we returned home Michael took me to the movie "Midnight At The Museum 2" I was so glad it was cool and we both enjoyed the flick. Then we stopped to talk to Grandma and Grandpa Stratton By The Park. Dad Stratton told us that he was part of the group that made the cave and that the reason that the pipe was in there was because the cave in that area started to collapes. He also told us that his Father and he used that road to deliever fruit when he was young. And that they had a turkey farm up along that road. So I was wrong about the sheep. These are the things are so interesting to me. Thanks Michael for playing.
