Then make a PQ from geocaching.comCachemate you can look at your caches, look and uncode the cheats, check out travel bugs and also type in a log so you know which caches you have done for the day. Really makes cache day organizing easy!
Here is the link to the site and some others that involve cachemate.

http://www.negeocaching.com/modules/wfsection/article.php?articleid=2Now I just started using GSAK (Geocache Swiss Army Knife) computer program and finding that making the cachmate file easy to send with 1 click of a button.
Hope this helps out.

I use Cachemate in my PDA also. I love it!! I haven’t done GSAK yet though.
If you need any of those static screen protector thingys, there’s store in Sun Prairie that has them right now. 99¢ for a package of 10. The store is “Liquidators Outlet” on Main St.

I agree about eBay. I bought a Palm IIIxe in it’s original box with the manual, software, cradle, and a body glove case for $35 including shipping. I have 250 caches plus games loaded into it and I’ve barely scratched the surface of the memory usage. Granted, it’s not a pretty looking PDA, and it’s not color, but it does exactly what I want it to do!

Congrats Bec!!!! You deserve to pat your own back there! Way to go!
LOL. I’m with ya! I worked at a hospital many years ago and had to have a parking sticker for my vehicle. I STILL have residue on my window FOUR YEARS LATER, lol. At least the hospital sticker is on one of the rear door windows. That way I don’t have to look at the residue all the time.
And it’s not like you can just keep adding stickers to your front windshield and make a collection…. Being able to see thru the windshield is an awfully helpful thing!
I have too many *membership* cards in my wallet already. I’d scream if I had to add another card, lol. Personally, I’d like to have the ability to be able to put the sticker on a side window or bumper.

Well, why don’t they just come out and say how they feel???? (Rolling my eyes here.)
LOVED the cache owner’s note in the logs right there.
According to their profile, “the boys” are two dogs. How can two dogs be “so disappointed” with a geocache? Give me a break.

I usually don’t smell until after I’ve been out caching on a warm day….
I can’t say that *I* sniff my caching stuff to get a fix. But the sense of smell is most closely linked to memory of all the senses, so I have other smells that get me all in a tizzy for various reasons. (Baking bread, lilacs, being in the woods, certain pipe smoke odors, the lake….) They all bring back very positive memories for me. So I can sorta relate.

That was hilarious!
Wow! You’re zippy quick!!! Way to go!!

Well, in my own humble opinion, “You have to cross about 70 yards of low, marshy, potentially wet terrain to get to cache site…” sounds icky. LOL.
I guess if it were me, I’d at least make an attempt to find the cache before posting the “Should Be Archived”. And/or make an attempt at contacting the cache owner thru the profile….
But if someone has already done that, I hope they will share here!
I’m glad you’ve *gotten the stones* to speak up. (Do ya feel the *RUSH*?? LOL.)
I know how you’re feeling – you’re sorta feeling like folks are “cheating” on the game. The way I keep from feeling that way is that I just try to look at it as an *individual* game – I’m not “against” anyone. It’s just me and the cache. I guess a good comparision would be golf. You’re just out trying to get your best score and to have a lot of fun. Some folks spend all sorts of $$ on fancy clubs that supposedly help you hit your ball farther or golfballs that supposedly fly farther, and even though it’s not *illegal*, it just doesn’t feel right to everyone to do it that way, even though some folks aren’t bothered by it. (I sure hope that makes sense…. That was one BIG run on sentence, lol.)
Anyhoo…. That’s my 2¢.

Little Fishcacher is 8. Fortunately, he’d be bored outta his skull here.

As long as 4-letter words such as WORK or DIET weren’t used, I can handle just about anything that is posted on this board. I like the debates, I like that we don’t always all agree. We aren’t a cult — we don’t have to be of the same mind. We don’t even have to like one another.The purpose (in my eyes) of this message board is to discuss issues related to WISCONSIN and GEOCACHING.
I think if you don’t like something related to those two issues, you should be able to “vent” and be open to getting everyone else’s opinion.Some people are much more comfortable being direct about things that bug them (or conversely, things they love dearly) and I can respect that. My heritage is far too Swiss for me to be anything but neutral (on most things) and way too introverted to express those things that really tick me off.
I look at these boards as a geocache — if you take something, leave something of similar or better value. Don’t leave trash, and please no dangerous objects!
Continue to discuss openly guys — I’ll keep reading. Much like a “lame” cache, I won’t visit if it doesn’t seem like a good time.
…most of the time I’m not sure if I’m even making enough logical sense to post anything. That might be the same thing in this post…
Bec
That was awesome Bec.

Alert the censors:One day in the hospital, two little boys were lying on stretchers next to each other outside of the operating room.
The first boy leans over and asks, “What are you in for?”
“I’m here to get my tonsils out and I’m nervous,” the second boy says.
The first kid says, “You’ve got nothing to worry about! I had that done when I was four.
They put you to sleep and when you wake up they give you lots of ice cream and Jell-O. It’s a breeze!”
“Well what are you here for?” the second kid asks.
“A circumcision.” The first kid replies woefully.
The second kid says “Wow! I had that done when I was born and I couldn’t walk for a year!”
The only somewhat acceptable joke on this subject available Greyhounder.
I love that joke every time I see it!
