    Grousetales … thanks for checking into this. If such I thing was allowed, I really think it would make sense to allow it for all events, not just official WGA events. As all events have the same issues, they are not unique to WGA official sponsored events. Just my 2 cents.

    Grousetales / All … Now lets just say for a moment that this was something that any event organizer could do and would be approved … Does anybody agree with me that it would be cool and show a WGA membership consistancy if we “suggested” a cache naming structure for these special event listings? My idea that comes to mind would be “ECHO”, short for “Event Cache Hide Organizer”. As an example, the one for the event I’m co-hosting could be called “ECHO The Secrets of Stonehaven”. What do the rest of you think? Would it not be handy to know that when something starts with “ECHO ” you’d know what you got before you click on it?

    Interesting idea.
    It appears that the second cache is ONLY to record the event’s temp finds (and is not a physically findable cache itself, which would serve dual purposes otherwise).

    IF the WGA approvers would approve of this, I think it would be nice. Will be interesting to see what they say, as this would represent approving a cache with a very short life span, that “appears” as if it was a cache that was going to stick around (ie. not an event listing).

    But in my opinion, ONLY if it’s just for containing the temporary event finds, not with an “string attached” of it also being a findable cache. Because I think if it was dual purpose (ie. both temps finds and a cache itself) it would “muddy the waters” for future finders (post-event) that are looking at the log entries. Also, depending on where an event is held and how many regular caches are there already, the property managers that allowed the event may not wish to have another regular cache on their property.

    To JR ….
    Ha, Ha, Ha. However, I suspect that you think I’m employed by a utility. Just the opposite (well sort of), I’m involved with the state’s energy conservation program, including solar/wind/geothermal, etc. So actually, maybe a cloud shadowed my email account. So there!

    That’s a discharge plume from Jeff’s processing of M&M Seven Layer Salad … he’s gone commercial with it now!

    Congrats!
    I was watching the ticker, but I missed it actually happen.

    thanks for sharing!

    This is the first street MAP I’ve seen that actually shows my street on it (out in the sticks, dead in by the big lake). The SATELLITE image is actually current, shows a berm I put in about 2 years ago. Unfortunatley the areas where most my caches are is not imaged at very high quality (can only pull the slider about half-way up before it says no data at that level).

    I find this all very interesting.

    “Cathunter” has a good idea … but if he does decide to “not worry about logging his finds” (either at all or soon) … please, please, please have him not taking any Travel Bugs out of caches then … that would really mess things up, if they are not being logged.

    Is there another computer source nearby? Like the library or something.

    That guy does look sort of like me … he’s even got a junkie looking black pullover winter hat. But does he have a leather brimed hat for summer?

    Congrats! The next 50 should go quicker, now that you know you don’t have to watch movies to solve mine

    JR, don’t under estimate yourself. We did Bridle Trail #2 yesterday … that’s a pretty good hike … you’ll do well at this. Now, on to ones that will use more brains and less leg power … how about a visit to Port Washington to give my mysteries I try (another shamless plug).
