They’re just so expensive! I make the poor man’s version with bottle caps.

Oh the woes of the short geocacher!

That’s what I had to do to get those log sheets for the Janboree.

A picture of Ruby!? Where?!
Becca, do you think I could commission you and/or Katie to make me another Road Rally cake!?

Mark, my original post had the picture of Ruby eating/holding the flag from your log. But the file was huge so I edited it and put in a different picture.

Yes, I think we can make you another cake. I need some inspiration though, it will be hard to top the last one.

I have a bunch of crafty caches too. I sure do love duct tape, it makes it easy to be creative without too much money. Here’s one of my Dr. Seuss caches:

I suppose I have some interesting cache containers too. I’d love to see your pictures Gwyn if you can dig them up.

Sorry Mr. GT, I took the picture of Ruby out of there. It was too huge! I put in another one.

Oh the woes of the short geocacher!

Whoops, didn’t mean to post such a friggin’ huge picture. I’ll try and change it…

Sounds great! This area caught my eye a few years ago when hiking the Ice Age trail in the area. I’m really hoping we can make it! So will the group trek involve the caches needed to find the final puzzle cache?

Many of the “Friends” groups put out the newsletters and flyers in the State Parks with their funds. I have seen geocaching mentioned in some of those. I think the one at Point Beach even had the names and coordinates in the park newsletter. Not as a solution, but as an alternate it might pay to contact each of the friends groups and work with them too. Some don’t seem to want to spend the WGA’s money, but a small donation to a friends group would probably easily open a door to cooperation with them as they rely solely on donations.

Thank you Bill, that is a good suggestion! I hadn’t thought of that and it’s definitely worth looking in to.

I guess it comes down to whether or not we want to actually make this project happen, or whether we want to wait for the DNR for funding. Because it doesn’t appear that we can have both.

Oh the woes of the short geocacher!

Tried it today, works great. Thanks Brian!

I think this was one of the hangups with getting the series going in the first place was waiting for the DNR to pay for anything.

Oh the woes of the short geocacher!

That was such a fun day! I think that was before I had started writing ridiculously long logs though. But Jake still talks about those couple of geocaches that you hid there. And I published a story about them in that FTF Geocacher magazine.

Ditto on the “new posts” button. I know there’s an option for posts since last log on but it’s an extra click away. Not the worst thing in the world, but still, I miss the new posts click.

The board is looking into putting together some sort of task force so that we can get things finished off. Let’s face it, all of the different jobs that need to be done around here can’t be accomplished just by the 9 board members. We know that we can count on our excellent WGA members that are passionate about the project to step up and help out. Stay tuned for more information. Anyone willing to help?
