Well, this week was pretty much the same as last week.  Dad's course continues to go well with all the guys passing the two exams Dad gave them.  One of the exams was quite hard and a few of the guys just made the passing grade.  One more week to go for Dad in this theory portion of the course and then we get to go home for a week.

I continued on with my exercise classes at the gym and walking to Dad's work each day to get in my 10,000 steps.  I also did a bit of knitting (baby hats for the hospital) and some crocheting (coasters for Christmas bags we are giving to some widows in a nursing home in Hervey Bay).

While we were at the mall one day, we made a wonderful purchase.  When I was at the mall with Dawn last week, I happened to notice a bunch of lovely prints of giraffes.  So, when I went with Dad after that, I showed him the stall where the prints were.  I wanted to get a large one, but we decided that we just didn't have room in our house for one that big, so I 'settled' for three small ones.  I am slowly building up my giraffe mementos. :-)

Yesterday, Dad and I went geocaching again and had another great day outside.  We managed to find three out of four of the geocaches.  When we got home and Dad was inputting the info into the geocache website, he happened to be reading the logs of the first geocache which we couldn't find.  He found out that we were looking in the right place, but were not looking high enough.  We are going to go back and try to find that one next weekend.
