          My “What if…” was to get cachers thinking in the other vein.

          If you went out and cached from 7:00 AM until noon, and decided you had enough mud and water, would you then go to Regner Park and sit in your car for 4 1/2- 6 hours, waiting for the cash drawing? Or would you visit the West Bend area while waiting for the raffle? Would you sit in the rain for 60 minutes while the raffle prizes were announced? Or head home early, because it isn’t worth sitting in the rain for 60 minutes while the raffle prizes are being announced?

          The comments might possibly be, “Less raffle prizes! Sat in the rain for an hour and didn’t win anything”. “We could have had more coupons to use in the area businesses while we waited for the raffle”.

          I cache in the rain, too. But that’s beside the point.

          The WBCB crew has an excellent, proactive agenda, rain or shine. They have a good balance of cache and social related things for each cachers taste.

          The comments coming in are based on a “good weather” caching Event.

          If we get a “wet” Cash Ba$h, it will be interesting to see if the same comments crop up.

            Just out of curiousity…

            If we would have had steady to heavy rain for the Cash Ba$h last Saturday, are there any other thoughts on that possibility?

            I pm’d a committee member with the possibility of adding the amount of time it would take (approximately) in the program for each cache. If it would have been raining, we would have focused on the shorter walks, and done the remainder on a nice day in the future. We still would have gone to Regner to start and finish the day, but would probably have used our coupons that were in the gift bag to visit the businesses that supported the Mega-Event. So far, 2 years of good, hot weather.

            What if?

                  Only 2 finders since we “waded” to this one last November.

                  Congrats on the milestone. Great log and pictures. 🙂

                    We have hidden over 200, but we have also archived about 35 of our earlier hides. Almost half our hides are WSQ’s, and since it isn’t recommended to put a 3,4,or 5 star hide in a plot, we usually put a “pill bottle in a cedar tree”. We do appreciate other finders helping us with maintenance. We hope to stay in the game on a continuous basis for years to come, but if it changes, we will put caches up for adoption, and archive the rest. No reason someone else can’t put a cache in the same area, so we can add to the ‘smiley’ column! Attrition is part of life and we will go with the flow.

                        Why hasn’t marc 5-digits posted his wheels yet?

                        At least the first one would be nice! 😯

                            Linda and I “honeymooned” there a few years ago. Visiting the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island at the same time makes for a great getaway! 😀

                              My first car was a 1972 Plymouth Duster, with the 340 engine. Bought it for 2 grand of inheritance money . Wish I still had it!
                              My first and last NEW car was a ’79 Mustang Cobra…the first year they uglified the Pony. Paid $5895 for it. I’d like that one back, too!

                              In the last 13 years, it’s been 4 LeSabres and one Park Avenue. I guess I do more driving in my current job than at any other time. Might as well be comfortable! 🙂
