On the sixth day of Christmas, geocaching gave to me…

OK, it is now the third day of Christmas. Tree sounds a lot like three… can someone think of a creative line that starts with that?

Tree knot holes.

Tree Evil Monkeys…..

tree hollow logs, two wet hiking boots and a dimly lit light saber.

Well, sticking with Jeremy’s thought, I’d have to go with “Tree Branches Bent”, but I think “Three Film Cans” is better.

Day 4. “Four first to finds” sounds good, but what are the odds someone will score that many FTFs in a single day nowadays?

Maybe someone can come up with a line with a verb that rhymes with “calling”… “falling”, “stalling”, “sprawling” or at least ends in “ing”.

Four crawling ticks? But it is winter in Wisconsin…

😯 Four sticking burrs (since these seem to find me winter, spring, summer or all) 🙄

Four searching minutes B4 sunset

Day 5. Five golden rings becomes five golden geocoins, like the 2005 Wisconsin geocoins, right?

How about 5 pocket queries… since 5 is the maximum number of PQs that can be run in a day?

[I M WU]

Five Muggled Green Jeeps! 🙁

[LDove]

I like FIVE golden geocoins! I would not want someone to give me 5 pocket queries – but I sure would like 5 geocoins!

A 5 waypoint multi.

Day 6. We are halfway done with this stupid song. 🙂

We now enter the “regular” part of the song where each verse consists of a number (for today, six) and object/noun (for today, geese) and a verb ending in “ing” (for today, a-laying).

You can try replacing the object with a geocaching one:

Six caches a-laying (a foot deep in the snow, so there is no chance in hell that I’ll find them)

Or keep the object and replace the verb:

Six geese pooping (creating a minefield around the cache)

Or replace both the object and verb:

Six puzzle caches teasing
Six (green jeep) travel bugs missing
Six stage multi a-killing (me)
Six miles a-hiking

The easiest but most boring and unimaginative of approach would be to replace the object and verb with a two word noun. It may be difficult to come up with object and verb pairs for the remaining days so we may have to go this route. This is what the geocoin folks did:

Six ammo boxes

Okay, I can sing it better in my head if you list the first five up to now… I love “six goose turds…” since I have been stepping and dogdging them all over the place lately. 😆

So – let’s hear it from the beginning from da boys in da band,

On the first day of…

Six heads a scratching.
