I think you’ve caught up with my congrats now, so let me say CONGRATS for accomplishing another fine milestone! Glad to see you haven’t been slowed down by the snow or voodoo hexes!
Cache on! 8)
Flat Jack is honored to have one of his caches included in the list of milestones found by the Icon. I’m pretty impressed as well. 100 and counting…not that you are counting. Keep on cachin’ Dave!
I’m not going to go into the details because I’m sick of it, but I just want to vent a little steam and say my first attempt to publish a EarthCache will be my last.
Perhaps I’m just an idiot newbie who just started doing EarthCaches and don’t deserve to have an opinion on the matter, but…. if there is going to be a “virtual” cache system related to the earth available, there needs to be an option out there for more than just caches about rocks or holes in the ground. Sometimes there is a great lesson to be shared (such as the human attempt to correct our negative impact on habitats) and hiding a small plastic container on the site completely misses the point.
And that is all I have to say about that.
Brett Farce (ooops, Favre) retirement “news” coverage.
Another congrats in another thread! 😀

Your coin in HI maybe retrievable. We are headed there later this year and if it is on the same island as us at the same time I would be happy to grab it. Just let us know what it is and we will watch for it for you
Wow. It got a direct ride from WI to HI. Another direct ride would be great! The TB is Pulelehua TB2RKC8. The only island it has left to visit is Lanai. It’s in someone else’s hands now. Don’t know where they will be placing it. At this point, I don’t care if it makes it to Lanai as long as it makes it home.
Great job! (Do you ever take time off? ;))

Sorry yours have gone missing, that is the exact reason I don’t want to send any out and actually delayed me getting any of my own until just recently.
I’ve heard stories of TB’s being found after a year, so maybe there’s a slim glimmer of hope?

I do have two others out there still in motion. One was last spotted in Iowa and is supposedly in route to Idaho. The other is bouncing around HI and has made it to almost every island which was it’s goal. To be honest, I have little faith I’ll ever see either one again.
This is why I’ve now switched mostly to my two discoverable only now and will probably never do any more until I can figure out a way to put LoJack on them so I can track down the culprits and teach them a lesson. 👿
If you didn’t see it in December, unfortunately its probably lost as I suspected. No need to make a special trip smashing ground unless you really feel inspired. Thanks for the update. Looks like this is another sad case of clueless cachers who can’t read or think its ok to steal them.
It wouldn’t bug me so much if the TB my other daughter released on the same weekend didn’t end up missing after one cache as well. Sours me on the whole trackable idea.
Cachers who pick up TBs and don’t have a clue how they work!
A big congrats John. I know you two will make the best use of your new found “free time.”
George Geocacher was deep in the forest when his GPS battery died. He wandered around in circles for hours and finally came across another cacher.
“Am I ever glad to see you!” said the George. “I’ve been lost out here for 3 hours.”
“Don’t get too excited,” the other cacher replied. “I’ve been lost out here for 3 days.”
Winter Monday stuck using Excel. THBBBBBTTT!
Whoo! Nice job. (Did you use Lincoln to write in the snow?)
