    A shout out to SE Wisconsin…

    I know that “most” of the cachers in the “area” don’t get over this way – so I CHALLENGE you to come explore a gem of an area – can be completed in one day – and find the Milwaukee River Greenway Challenge http://coord.info/GC37F6C

    I challenge you to be the first to complete the challenge in one day! I willl send a special prize to the winner! (And it won’t be a day old fish fry leftover!)

      The Milwaukee River Greenway challenge is worth the trip. We found several at a time in January, February, March, May, September, and November, so most can be done any time of year. It is possible to do them all in one day. If you’re good… And to think they are all in the city of Milwaukee, right along the river! Here’s some highlights:

      Sunshine and I did this series with froggerz today. They had already found some and were nice enough to re-visit those with us. We had only found two of the older caches several years ago. Today we found twenty more and did it in under six hours including a lunch break. We figured that we hiked about six miles. This was a truly great series and hike and todays great weather made it even more enjoyable.

      What do you know? Mr.Greenthumb and Sunshine appear to have won my challenge. (Even though they wussed out on the now legitimately 54 40 or Bust). They did the required 20 of 23 in one day with a bonus butter burger in the mix, perhaps. Now I have to figure out the appropriate prize – right, I hadn’t really thought that part through…

        Wow, congrats! Six hours of adventure and fun along the Milwaukee River, with scenic views, great company, and now a special prize from Beezers. Good weather for it too, nice timing! :biggrin:

        It occurred to me that froggerz also deserves the prize, as they accompanied Mr.G and S on the entire trip. I am feverishly weighing several options…
