Mourning doves

 I think it's funny how memories that are 60 years old are triggered by sounds and smells and sights. Over the last few days I've been in Yuma Arizona for a geocaching mega event, and have heard mourning doves throughout my stay here. It's a nice memory of my childhood.

Geocaching statistics (as of 12/31/2023)

As I'm sure I've noted here before, geocaching is both a solitary "sport" and a competitive individual (or team) "sport". Some individuals compete with other geocachers for FTFs (first-to-finds), others compete for difficulty / terrain points (and many do both). 

I like to go after counties, and as you can see below, I've visited 1645 (out of 3148) counties (and county equivalents) in the United States. So, I'm just over 50% after nearly 20 years of geocaching.
