    Will those college professors be happy to know you’re spending your time caching instead of studying?!!?!? Congrats on your milestone!

    p.s. I love your screen name – So do you carry a machete?

    Wow!!! 500 caches is quite the respectable milestone, but 500 travel bugs?!?!? That’s downright amazing! Congrats!!!!!

    Hooray!!!! Congrats on the big milestone!!

    Big congrats to you on a big milestone!!!

    How fun is that?!?!??!! How nice of you to go out at last minute’s notice and give these boys a day of fun for scouting. And you’re a good teacher to boot, so I’m sure not only did they have fun, but they learned a lot as well!

    Isn’t there some sort of “cacher of the month” award somewhere?!?!!?? It’s all yours!!

    EXCELLENT choice!!! I love Goosey XXII. (Never met a natloh cache I didn’t like! Maybe cursed at it a few times, but I still liked it! LOL!)

    This is why I have a huge *watchlist*, lol. I love to read the cool log entries! (Linus and Tishman are a couple that pop into mind for me instantly! I love reading the logs they leave!) I keep caches I’ve found on a watchlist for awhile to see what others experience as well. I really enjoy that side of geocaching – *almost* as much as going out and finding them myself!

    Of course you can log it! You set eyes on that logbook and could sign it yourself with your own hand. (I really think that’s what this thread is trying to convey…. At least that’s how I’m reading it, lol.)

    Now next time I run into you on the trails, I’ll just make sure *not* to call the hooty-hoo – I’ll just tuck it back and make you find it yourself, like you did for me lolol!

    For our *team* (fishcachers), there’s Mama, Papa, and Little Fishcacher. Never in a million years would we consider splitting up on the same day to find caches just to pump up the numbers. (Besides the fact that there’s just one GPSr for the family, lol.) But to “divide and conquer” seems pretty unethical to me. Now if some people wanted to do that, well, so be it. Personally, I like the satisfaction of finding the cache and looking around to see why the cache placer brought us there. That’s the fun for me. But if other people think it’s fun just to watch the numbers fly higher and higher, well, that’s the fun they get out of it, and as T&TB said, it would feel pretty empty after awhile.

    Now with all that said, I do cache alone quite often. Papa just isn’t into it as much as I am (and besides, he works 7pm-3am so his awake times are very different than mine). The little guy is in school and doesn’t quite enjoy geocaching as much as I do. (I don’t want to force it on him.) So lately, most of the caches found under our team name are after I drop Little Fishcacher off at school then I take of and go caching for the day when I’m off work. I have considered registering each of us separately, but decided that was more of a pain in the tushie than anything. So I state in the log if I was there or if it was me and the the little guy or if it was all 3 of us. I have no *guilt* and no unethical feelings regarding it the way I do it. If I were competing with someone to get higher numbers, I could see the draw the *divide and conquer* method would have. But since it’s an individual sport as opposed to a competitive sport, there’s no reason to do that in my book.

    ~Mama Fishcacher, apologizing if this sounds disjointed as she hasn’t finished her cup of coffee for the am yet, lol.
