    The Spring EC’s you and Brian have put out have some great history behind then Renee. I don’t feel those are lame at all. Actually.. I learned a lot about the area, Wisconsin, the healing waters, etc. (me not being a native and all I had no clue). It has been an interesting hunt for Springs in WI. Many have been made into shrines of sorts. The one in Waukesha down by the Post Office, The tile work on that Spring house is quite interesting. I do stained glass and the mosaic style reminds me of that. Many of the springs here remind me a lot of Thermopolis, Wyoming and the healing hot springs and resorts they still have there.

    I have done some in other states that were…well….pretty insignificant. One was a 6 inch little pipe in tall grass, that you could barely even see. That is when a spring is a spring is a spring. Dan and I did one in Illinois that we THOUGHT was gonna be just another pipe in the ground, but were very pleasantly surprised and I got some kewl pics. that one was called GC11K34 Water Defying Gravity

    I was on the site maybe a few weeks ago and didn’t notice anything then. I did as Gary about coins with the EC logo, but the Geology society holds the rights to the design and he said he didn’t see anything like that coming out right now. Gotta go check out “Da Store”

    Here is what I think I should invent. A GPS navigation system that is a total smarty pants and if you make a wrong turn, it tells you off! I could come up with a million funny things for it to say when you would make a wrong turn or not listen to the constant “recalculating or OFF ROUTE”! 😆

    LDove… you didn’t get the e-mail with the link to the You Tube for the New GPS did you?? They took my idea…similar to what you are mentioning here.

    Also…for the Bugline, I think they want you to park at the most convenient spot then tkae you bike or hike to them all. I have done some of them and Digital Dan and Bushwhacking Queen did a whole bunch more. Dan might know where the best places to park are.

    I’ve never measured water flow at a geocache, but I would hope the cache owner would post a list of the extra items needed to complete the task.

    Usually the cache owner will say something like “To figure the water flow rate, you will need a container of known volume and a timing device i.e. a watch with a second hand or a stop watch. We carry our EC kit which is a 1 gallon plastic jug, with all the odds and ends we acquired and needed to do other EC’s, like a thermometer, a hydrometer, pH testing kit, a measuring tape, cheapo watch, etc. it’s all self contained and we carry in the car when we know we are heading out to do EC’s. Plus we create a simple spread sheet of all the info we need to do the EC’s and a place to write the answers.
