    Thanks all. It’s been a fun year exploring some remote places and solving some gnarly puzzles. For us the fun of the game is finding things that haven’t seen the light of day for a while, in some cases for over two years, and to work on “clearing the map.” The adventure meant more than any score–although I will admit it is fun to rack up numbers and there were times I wouldn’t have minded having the extra “minor maintenance” points of the 2008 season.

    It will be interesting to see how many of the single-season marks set in 2009 get smashed in 2010, and by whom. With unfound lonelies getting farther and farther from our home base–something Dave and Alex can surely appreciate as well–and with our personal penchant for logging no revisit points, I’m pretty sure that we are one-year wonders.

    So………………….who’s next? πŸ˜€

    Congratulations. That is a lot of Lonely Caches.

    Maybe you want to share a few stories of your favorite adventures in seeking Lonelies?

    Sure. I’ll start a thread (or someone else can) on its own topic when I have a chance to put some thoughts together so everyone who played can share some thoughts.

    Kudo’s to the accomplishment. I’ve watched your numbers since I started caching in July and have wondered “How do they do it?” I still don’t exactly know, but it had to be fun considering the excitement I get finding a lonely still in tact after many months.

    You got that right! But that’s as it should be, provides more encourgement to new players…especially those with a penchant for solving puzzles in the Appleton area…

    I know you thought the purple pushpins were Tinky Winky tribute caches, but they’re actually puzzles. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. πŸ˜₯
