    I have a couple of Jeep TBs sitting around. Could I donate those for future prizes?

    Oh. Must have a string attached – no one named Dave can claim them!

    WOW!

    (OK, Seth, the Minnesota DeLorme seems much more likely!)

    5. Delete all waypoints.
    6. Delete all tracks and routes.

    Interesting problem…….

    1. New batteries
    2. Warm it up …. really good?
    3. Open battery compartment, and let it air dry.
    4. Acquire sats? Turn it off. On. Acquires, turn it off, on, etc several times.

    Just some ideas.

    Stay with the KFC designation.

    Tie, I still use Spinner/Plucker! I also do have cachemate installed. My preference is the old Spinner/Plucker just because of the functionality. I know it is really getting to be “old school”. I will now prep files “both ways” and am trying to get used to cachemate.

    Ecorangers are still in Spinner/Plucker world too.

    Yes, but the shorter half of that team is barely computer literate! But she can come to my last paperpless class, so there is hope!

    Suggestion: include the archived caches on the Cache Rescue listing.

    Quite a few of the puzzles in the Fox Valley seem to cater only to the local cachers and require information not easily obtained by someone not from the immediate area.

    Not true.

    Even though a number of the puzzles in the Valley mention cachers by name, it does not require any local knowledge.

    A couple do, like my Friends. (Then, maybe not!?). Where’s Dave can be done by anyone who wants to spend a lot of time reading thru logs. Hyde’s Web and Head Case probably require some local knowledge.

    There are a large number of directional or collecting information puzzles. You show up at a particular area, answer some questions, and then look for the final.

    Before you give up on them, take a closer look at what’s involved.

    Well….since you asked!!!

    How about my one and only cache that won Cache Of the Month?

    GCND98

    It will not be a BIG disappointment (smiles). It’s easier to find in the winter anyways (bigger smile)….Happy Hunting and congratulations! Tami

    Yes, this would be a good cache for a milestone. I remember hunting it with Miata.

    Seth has already talked about MN. And I think he is casting an eye to the south – KY perhaps?

    FFC – family friendly cache?

    I actually like KFC. Who cares about the jokes!

    in reply to: Honeybunnies hop to ANOTHER Delorme finish! #1886239

    Congratulations!

    in reply to: What do ya do in Real Life? #1886181

    Under the Officials Secrets Act I’m not allowed ….. Oooppps! Wrong country.

    Ah ….. my contact at the Witness Protection Program really does not like my chatting all day on these web sites, so …… I adopted another persona he does not know about!

    in reply to: Puzzle Cache Poll #1886161

    I feel most cachers avoid / dislike puzzles because of their perceived difficulty.

    That’s the reason I host Puzzle Events every so often. To dispel that concept, and to prove that a lot of puzzles can be solved, and are fun.

    Next event – April 5th, in Appleton.

    in reply to: Seriously working on our first cache placement #1886139

    Yes for #2. Go ahead right now, and enter your cache, and start playing around with the page.

    There is a block that comes pre-checked saying the cache is ready to go. Uncheck it, and the cache remains unreviewed.

    I routinely have 2-5 caches on the unreviewed list, was I work on them.
