field trip

In June 2011. My friend Cherie Jones planned a trip to Prince William Forest Park in Triangle, VA to go orienteering. DO NOT ask me to say that word out loud..cause I can't.
the people that went were
Cherie
Lee
Rich
James
Angelene
Carrie
Martin
ME and
SPIKE!
we went to the visitor center and got orienteering packets. That included maps and compasses. We then had to walk around and follow the map and the compass to figure out how to get to certain posts..the only problem was that these maps were from like 1971ish.. and where there WERE power lines and different things there were not anymore.. so it involved a lot of guess work.. I mostly just walked around with Spike and talked to people and just walked where other people were walking..
When we were done with that, Carrie fed us ALL a lunch that she had packed for all of us.. she even let Spike have some food!
We then went on a couple of other hikes past some old mine ruins and to some waterfalls.
afterwards we all went out to lunch at Subway and went home..
it was a great day!
