    Let’s all calm down a little bit.

    I don’t want to have to learn how to lock-out a thread.

    Cathedral Pines, just outside of Townsend. A sight to see.

    If you send in a check, you should get an E-mail stating when we get it.

    Information about tics?

    Here’s a Previous Posting from a while ago.

    I hear a .44 magnum dispatches them nicely. I do believe it is important to remove them from your person first though.

    in reply to: First cache placement #1748943

    Looks good!

    I just pressed the “Go” button.

    (yes, there really is a “Go” button which then lists the cache to the general public).

    in reply to: What are you waiting for? #1758436

    I’m a comin’.

    Don’t know how many yet.

    in reply to: Camping Fees #1758452

    Just a gentle reminder……

    If you have signed up for group camping, you also need to visit the WGA Store 2 (See link in previous post) to pay for it.

    There are several teams who have signed up but not paid yet.

    in reply to: Archived caches #1740438

    Although you could perform a “cache adoption”, if the cache is already archived, it is probably just easier to place and submit your own cach in its place. You can even call it the same thing if you want.

    The “cache adoption” process can take quite a while, because a reasonable attempt to contact the original owner has to be made, and that often can drag out for a long time, often more than 1 month.

    If you have specific questions regarding this, feel free to contact me at: wga2-admin at wi-geocaching dot com.

    Congratulations! I’ll bet through the miracle of DNA he already knows all of the answers to and locations of “?”.

    ** Neutral **

    **Not for or against***

    But…

    If you feel you must have a series of caches, it can save a bunch of review time if you also get a “.GPX” or “.LOC” file to the reviewer. You should include in the file, the co-ords for all stages of all of your caches, all of the surrounding caches, and all of the stages of all surrounding multi-caches.

    Keep in mind that all stages of all of your caches need to be at least 528′ away from anybody else’s cache, or stages of anybody else’s multi-cache.

    Also be sure that your are at least 150′ away from RR tracks, no matter how abandond they look.

    As a reviewer, I spend a great deal of time, manually typing in (or sometimes cut/paste) all of the stages and surrounding caches. If I don’t have to spend my time doing that, then I can usually get through them faster.

    I would reccomend you E-mail the files to BOTH of the addresses listed below.

    A very good idea. I agree.

    in reply to: Night Caches in Racine/Milwaukee Area #1748559

    If you want to do the “Glow” caches, drop me an E-mail through the geocaching.com site using my My Profile.

    I live nearby and have been meaning to check on those caches soon anyway.

    in reply to: Register now !!! #1758424

    We don’t want that. PLEASE do as the man says.

    in reply to: Greetings from Georgia #1748539

    Any further gloating will result in a SEVERE and CONSTANT snowball barrage upon your return.
