Woohoo, I found my 900th geocache today!! (Sorry about the lame sign though. :P) It'll be super cool to get to 1000 next :D
Yesterday mom *insisted* I go to Bingo with her and her boss, so I did..it definitely felt super weird because most of the people there were older than me lol, but it was still fun. I came close to winning on a couple games, but others got there before me. I also tried Pull Tabs for the first time..you buy a bunch of cards and pull off the tabs to see if you won anything..I won $2.00! I could have kept playing, but that was good enough for me haha (mom's boss said I'm corrupted now LOL). I was SO tired at the end after staring at numbers for two hours, and even had a dream about dabbing Bingo cards haha!
And OMG THIS!
Ahhh they recently dived the Terror with a robot and took this awesome video!!! I got CHILLS when they shined the light into Crozier's cabin..wowwww. And there might even be salvageable documents in his desk?!? Oh man, I'm jealous of whoever gets to do that. Amazing how well preserved it is! Dad actually called me just to ask if I had seen this yet, Christine from Juneau posted it on my wall, and because I'm a member of Remembering the Franklin Expedition, my Facebook is blowing up with Franklin news haha. So cool!
