8:00 am Geocaching
A new cache appeared on the map this morning so I headed out as soon as it was light.
- GC3C0MD - Country Cache - Redo
This turned out to be a FTF. It also was my first find for a February 7, bringing my total number of February days with finds to 19.
I am always grateful when a new cache appears within easy driving distance from home.
8:30 PM Literature
I made a good decision when I decided to buy "A World Elsewhere". Wayne Johnston is a special kind of author. This is a very powerful novel, one that sneaks up on you when you are simply reading it for enjoyment.
I have just googled "Vanderbilt mansion" and found the following site: http://www.biltmore.com/
Much of the novel takes place here. But this is a novel, and a work of fiction. However the mansion is real, actually, surreal. Incredible.
