Background:
Born and raised in Southeastern Wisconsin.

Employed as an Electrical Engineer in New Berlin, WI.

Geocaching History:
Started Geocaching back in July of 2001.
Found out about Geocaching through a Milwaukee Sentinel article.
First Geocache attempted: Vernon Marsh by Jeremy V.(Now Archived).
First Geocache completed: Alyssa’s Cache by Jon and CJ (Also Archived).
Geocaches found: About 275.
Contributions to local Geocaching activities to date:
12 geocaches placed and maintained in S.E. Wisconsin.
Two Geocaches voted “WGA – Cache Of The Month”.
Talked with the head of New Berlin Parks & Recreation about Geocaching.
His response: “I don’t see any problems with that, go ahead”.Contributed to the idea for the “Mothership / Satellites” system for the WGA events.
Suggested an improvement to the WGA website (which was implemented).
Replaced a missing micro-cache for an out-of-town geocacher.
Helped a fellow geocacher replace one of his caches that went missing (I had a boat).
Found a geocache that was plundered and scattered throughout the woods.
Picked up all of the pieces and returned it to its owner.Found a geocache that had been moved from its original location and returned it to its owner.
Things I like about Geocaching:
An opportunity to get outside and go to places I NEVER would have gone to otherwise.
Meeting fellow geocachers while out hunting for a cache.
Reading that “First Log” for a new Geocache that I have placed.
Cool electronic gadgets (GPSr, PDA, FRS radios, etc..).
