day 4 souvenir looks kinda like S|S coin submission some time back but that was a bison tube (supposed to be a bison tube) hanging and not a birdhouse.
I remember that one. 😳
I don’t understand the point of souvenirs. At all.
Geocaching is supposed to be a “high tech treasure hunt.” You know, get outside and do stuff. See new places. Meet people. Whatever. Souvenirs are completely online, electronic thingamabobs. Worthless. Yes, your find count is maintained online but it represents something in the real world.
A souvenir that tells me I found a cache on Wednesday, or in Wisconsin, or on National Bacon Day–I already know that. Or are people out there showing their souvenir pages on their smartphones to fellow cachers, like proud grandparents pulling out a binder full of baby pictures? I honestly can’t recall the last time I looked at my souvenir page.
They’re just really dumb. Perhaps the dumbest idea ever in the history of dumb geocaching ideas. And before anyone flames me with “if you don’t like them, don’t do them,” just remember I’m not the one who asked the question, just responding to it.
