Frizz, I’ll tell you a little secret. 😉 I was and still kind of am obsessed with downloading photos on JS Online’s “Your Photos” page. I have slowed down since I have started geocaching, because that website has now become my photo gallery. I have 100’s of them downloaded, in numerous categories. I got a Fujifilm FinePix A200 2.0 Mega Pixels camera with our computer a number of years back and I take it everywhere and snap away. I’m debating getting a better camera, but this one is so oldschool for digitals that I am going to keep snapping away until I have to bury it in our back woods.

Thanks for the well wishes for our friend, off to see him again, this evening. 😀 He hit a deer on his 1969 500 Triumph last Thursday evening in the Hartland/Wales area. Was unconscious, some good samaritan called 911, when he came too at the hospital, he was told he had a broken collar bone and cracked ribs and was sent home from the hospital. Actually turns out his spleen had been bleeding. And it was fortunate he stayed with us this weekend so I could get him to the hospital in time. He had 2 pints of blood removed from around his organs along with his spleen. If you read Thread Stealers a while back, he was the one with the bright idea to fill our well worn pick-up tire up to 55 psi and throw it on the fire after a few too many Guiness Extra Stouts. The rim now sits as the base to our mailbox as a reminder. He is definitely one of a kind and a great storyteller around our fire pit. He is hoping to get out in time for the races at Elkhart on Sunday. So keep wishing him well! 😀

I would also say visit the courthouse. The surveyor (has plat maps), the treasurer (sells county plat books), or the register of deeds (where all properties are recorded, certified survey maps and plats), anyone of these 3 could help you out. Our county website lists property owners throughout the county by name, address, or section, town, range, and 1/4 1/4 through a land records search program.

😀 Thanks Crystal! Tell Princess they were created as special “treasures”. Had a rough day yesterday sitting in Divine Savior Hospital all day with a friend of ours in emergency surgery, so thanks for making my day brighter today. I still have one to go on the LL series. Hope to meet you on the trails. Carol 😀

I like the hornets nest. Extremely creative. My brother is deathly allergic. Almost died. How about poisonous snake bite. Rabid bat. 😈 Geopink, I’ll go caching with you. 😈 My 9-5 is reading Criminal Complaints, reading autopsies, assisting homicide, burglary, domestic, etc., victims and witnesses, so, I’ve been reading real life Clue scenarios. No need to be fearful. 😈

I do. And I usually get a response back with a hint from the owner. That is how I met sloughfoot, by email and over the phone, not in person yet. I still haven’t gone back to find that one yet… And when I was in the UP, we attempted Wolf Mountain twice, no cache, the owner was there right after we headed for home and emailed me saying that is was missing and now was replaced. I am one of those “it’s about the experience” cachers.

I would say WSQ. I haven’t placed one yet, after seeing your IMPRESSIVE list, are there any left. 😉 I look forward to attempting your hides in the coming year and hopefully placing one of my own.

Just wanted to let you know that JS/Online sent out a promo for this event. My mom emailed it to me today asking if I had a free weekend available. Don’t know how to link to it but it is an ADMAIL, Wisconsin Travel Best Bets Spring 2007, Volume 1. It is a very nice promo.

Being on our Town Board, everything involving our old Town Cemetery would have to go thru that board. The Village also has a Board, so everything involving the Village Cemetery goes thru them, although I know a cache has been placed there but no permission is suggested in the cache page. So that may be something the new board should look in to. Posting on the cache page who is granting permission to place caches at cemeteries or are they being placed outside of or on the edge of the cemetery on private property without Town, Village or private party permission. I could see this as being a problem if one is not asking permission first.

You have a great blog. Thanks for sharing it. I am a newbie to this geocaching community too. I was obsessed with geocaching in the beginning. Looking for caches that sounded interesting, involved a walk, or involved a person or history. There seems to be a synchronicity with the caches I’ve been too. But back to your topic. Actually, birding. I need to go purchase some equipment and I fell into another blog via geocaching. I am gathering information on this possible new obsession, which can be done while geocaching. Also, when you get your story together for Belle can you PM me or let us know if you are going to present it in a public setting, I mentioned it to my mom and I would love to take her to see you perform part of our family history. Safe Travels. Carol

Katy, I think that is the magic of geocaching. The unknown factor of where will it take me next. I’ve been to places within miles of my house and now I think about those caches and the ones I haven’t gotten to yet, every time I drive down the road. Great Topic. Carol

Cheesehead Dave, I would answer your response with, I view geocaching as an adventurous searching game, and games usually come with a rule book. I don’t read it as geocaching.com is saying a temp cache is not a cache, they are just saying it won’t be listed as a separate cache on their website. I think the current rule for logging an event cache is there is no rule. It is up to you how you want to log the event caches. I would hope the new board would address this issue, or at least at events there should be rules given out in writing, not the verbal rules, where fingers can be pointed, well she or he told me to do it this way. I seriously didn’t know how to log event caches, I was watching them all being logged separately, but I didn’t feel that was right, so I just logged them the way I did, and I feel ok with how I logged them, not knowing if it was the right or wrong way to log them. PS I still owe you a liquid refreshment, maybe at the 20,000 cache event bonanza. 😉

I attended my first event last October, right after starting geocaching. I only made it to the parks that you had to drive too, there were multiple caches located throughout the park. I logged each park with multiple caches, as one attended. I never had time to do the ones in the park the event was held in. I would have still logged those as one find as attended. This is reflecting like they are a bunch of kids playing in kindergarten, you lied, you cheated, you had more fun than me. I feel I’m doing nothing wrong by how I logged my finds. I guess we need to be supplied rules at an event on how we can and can’t log finds, if those rules exist somewhere. I liked the driving the nice car comment too, I think that says it all! 😉

I read all when new posts. I’m kind of on the border of many regions.
