Congratulations on achieving both milestones!
We’ve enjoyed walking in your foot-steps on a number of Waushara County caches, especially after the proper stage has been set through a reading of your logs beforehand. So a big ‘Thank You’ to you, as well!
“Geocaching.com will be going offline temporarily for a site update on Wednesday, June 2nd at approximately 1pm PDT (GMT -7). We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.”
Congratulations Labrat on 1800! Betcha Bampa’s proud!
To ensure we didn’t have any BakRzd BakEndz encounters, we had a few runs deep into tickland, where we actually went prepared: Long and Light shirts and pants; pants tucked into long socks with high-top boots; and ample duct tape, after a while, to keep the socks up and over our pants. All laced with DEET, DEET, DEET! 😈
Worked well at keeping the ticks off the body, and visible on the cloths. Still found a few in the vehicle, and even one crawling across the gps as we were preparing to take off to the following cache. Oh yes, and then there was the one stinker, crawling and tickling up one of our backs, while we were trying to look calm and normal standing in line at a DQ…..in our duct taped-pants! 😆
Hmmmmm, maybe the duct tape should have been applied with the sticky side out…….like having fly-papered legs. Oh the things you’d collect! Great for show and tell! 😈 😈 😈
This land is not far from Volk Field (which is all National Guard), especially as the drone flies. The change is status may be related to this news item from today http://tinyurl.com/2cqj7g6 . Here’s the headline, in case the link breaks: “Wisconsin National Guard looks to build drone base in Juneau County”.
When this cache is archived, will there be a Rescue Mission? 😯
Ooops! Just noticed the cache referred to in our previous posting evaporated (hot out there!). Here it is again: GCKTTA

With any luck, this might cache on.. I mean catch on. I’m thinking this could lead to dryer, happier caching for all of us.
Super idea, and a great service. Hope it does catch on, and we hit one of your caches! 😀

is it just me or are there others that get a little tear-eyed when the Colors are passing by or when you hear the National Anthem or Taps?
Or the 21 Gun Salute of a Military Funeral……………………..chills 😥 😥
And you’ll likely never forget, perhaps, the greatest find ever you just found, which was on your grandson’s face! 😀 😀
The friendly email works on us 🙄 …… Recently logged a DNF, BUT, erroneously selected ‘found it’ when we made the log……….embarrassing 😳 😳 😳
Nice spot halfway between Cheyenne and SLC – a bit more than just a leg-stretcher, at the historic remains of an Overland Stage stop. Nice “short” 2.5/2.5 hot & dusty hike to the cache. Don’t go sticking your hand in any holes out there, though! 😯
We found it enjoyable and memorable……photo-worthy to a Midwesterner. 🙂
Hope this helps.

Anyone else find it ironic that Northern Highlands Community Foundation who is supposedly all about GIVING is holding an event recognizing an individual who was all about STEALING?
Perhaps. To some he was the devil, and others, a hero; a hood of the ‘Robin Hood’ variety.
Also, perhaps Johnnie D. is finally being made to give back, and through the Foundation, where “The focus of the Foundation is to produce events that will raise money to benefit our community.” Just a thought.

We went caching where the ticks were so bad…………………………… we thought the caches where moving themselves around the map on our Garmin’s screen, until we realized the caches had eight legs, and were ticks. 😯
Boomerang ticks they were, cuz when you’d flick ’em off, they’d come flyin’ right back on ya! Really! 😈
WE SEZ WAS A BLAST………AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!
