Today had an unseasonably warm 68º on Leap Day!
I took the kids out for some geocaching adventures...
Notice the rocks on the headstones at this local Hebrew cemetery? |
Jews have the custom of placing rocks (as opposed to flowers) on a grave that they've come to visit. This stems from the modern-day Jewish custom of not having flowers at a funeral. It is Jewish custom to have simple funerals, and flowers are considered expensive, excessive, and they only last a few days. Cool fact!
(Oh and there were a couple geocaches here too!)

Couldn't find this geocache until I stepped back and realized that a brick wall around a dumpster did not need an electrical outlet. |
And I was right! This little guy was just a magnetized treasure chest with a faux pipe. |
