Yes, I would like to add my kudos as well. Although I have not completed very many of the Socko caches, I have heard the tales of others. And of the times I have chatted with Socko, and the comments of others, I can say that he is a really great person and geocacher!

I’m not sure if this is good or bad…..

This is the nice thing about my “team” being really just the one person — me. Sometimes I bring others along, but they aren’t “real” geocachers, so they don’t care if they get the find. But in order for me to count the find — I want to see the cache, I’ve got to sign the log. If I go in a group and I’m not the first to find it, it does feel sort of like a fake find to me (that’s a personal issue and probably why I typically cache alone) but I would only count the find if I was there.
Otherwise, imagine all the geocaches I could claim just from hearing about them at events.
And, I was blissfully out of the loop on this one. I suspected that this sort of thing happened, but never so close to home. It’s sort of like learning that the Easter Bunny doesn’t exist.
Ethics are a cultural thing. Looks like the majority of the WGA culture has a negative attitude towards this issue. Of course, there are always those that choose their own path. Myself, I tend to follow rules — not everyone does. Maybe I don’t approve, but no one is getting hurt (physically that is).
Yeah, I’m disappointed by this, but we can’t force others to change their behavior. The only behaviors we can control are our own.
Enough rambling on my part. I’m enjoying these points to ponder. Gives me something to do at work rather than finishing my reports for the month!!!
Bec
Again, I will be there. I have put in my request for time off for that weekend!
Bec
YES!!!!! I’m already there! As soon as I have the date I will ensure that I have that weekend off.
Sounds like a fun time!

Did a little research on this — found a Wisconsin DNR report from April 8, 2003. It indicated that several Loons are making temporary homes on Delavan Lake. Perhaps you saw one of its Loon “squatters”.
Loons are great birds! And speaking some more about birds, I got to get pretty close to a bald eagle this weekend while I was up north. Excellent!
Bec
Congratulations Auntienae!! You are one amazing geocacher! Keep up the great work!
Bec
Congratulations! Keep up the good work!
Bec
Yay! Congratulations for reaching your first of many milestones! Hope you had a great time! I look forward to caching again with you soon!
Bec
Oh really……? Perhaps I can wait until the 20th (although patience is not one of my stronger characteristics).
Bec
I’m so glad you didn’t archive this one yet. It’s on my “must do” list. I’m hoping to get the opportunity to be in that area next weekend.
Bec
A greyhounder button.
Bec
Congratulations on the milestone, and my sympathies for the arm.
Bec
And just to play the smart a** — if it had been a Tupperware type container, do you think it would have been mistaken for a bomb?
Bec
(but, in all seriousness, I think the WGA needs to speak with Cottage Grove Police Department, or whatever, in regards to this situation.)
Nice work! Congratulations!
