You know you are addicted when…

[Timberline Echoes]

I thought it would be fun to share some of our you know you are addicted to geocaching when…. stories.

Our latest is…. when you go out and buy a canoe so you can get to island caches.

When you find yourself making several 1.5 hour trips to a city due to the Chippewa Valley Convention and Tourism Bureau. 🙂

you plan vacations based on the number of caches an area has to offer.

you go to the barber and jam his clippers with some twigs in your hair.

When you open up your lunch at work expecting to find a logbook.

ROTFLMAO. Tears, tears and more tears. Spitting my coffee on the computer screen, coffee backed up my nose, still LMAO.

Now, who has time for a barber?

When you are at your (hospital) Department meeting, discussing that the keys for the Crash Carts are in Magnetic Key Holders on each cart and you accidently think out loud…… “Kewl!!! Geocaches in house!!”.

Hey I made them all laugh!! LOL 😆

You’re horseback riding and use your higher perspective to notice great hiding locations.

Or, you drive 5 hours in a spring wind/snow/rainstorm to “camp” (I wimped out of original plans) and stand outside in the rain for two days just to be able to talk to other people that understand your obsession. (At least the 5 hours back home had better weather.)

After a couple days of hiking, caching and river swimming on our vacation, Julie gives me a shopping list for “stuff” we need from Walmart. Note that we found every cache we looked for except one. Here is the list:

Ice
Spring Water
Gatorade
Water shoes, size 7 (she forgot to pack hers)
Camo Tape
Waterproof Matchcase

Of course, I have to ask “whats with the camo tape and matchcase?”. Julie tells me that we are going to replace the missing cache (it was pretty obviously abandoned). “So now we are adopting caches 500 miles from home?” Her answer: OF COURSE! And I thought I was the addict.

When you run into a black bear in the forest, miles from civilization, and you’re more upset that your party decides to abandon the cache hunt and you don’t get to log the find than at the possibility that you could have been seriously mauled. 8)

A sign that you’ve been caching too much:

[draconis dave]

When you go out to check on one of your geocaches only 1 day after gall bladder surgery. (really did this!)

Or…….When you go out to geocache on a day that you wouldn’t go out if you were out fishing. (or golfing)

[Coastiegirl04]

when you are thinkin of volunteering to go overseas and the first thing you do is look up to see how many caches are in the area your going to be living at for a year (which by the way there was only 7 caches)

[Team Hemisphere Dancer]

On Fathers day you think to yourself, “The heck with this brunch lets go find tupperware” and you weren’t thinking of leftovers.
