Well, wasn’t this the sweetest thing. Thanks to everyone for their warm wishes. I guess we need to visit this site more often than once a year. Sandy and I were quite touched by the outpouring of congratulatory messages.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I should clarify that the milestone we have reached is for 5,000 LOGS WRITTEN, not actually found. My strategy from the beginning has been to read through the publications near our home and then write a nice “FOUND IT” log. I guess it would be interesting to actually go out in the woods and find the caches, but that could take years and a whole lot of effort. Over the past 3 and 1/2 years, we may have done that about 80-85 times, (we don’t really keep track of those numbers) and that has been quite exhausting.

It was especially nice to read that some of you enjoy reading our logs. Rest assured that we will continue to focus our energy to writing more and more of them. As long as you keep hiding those caches, we promise to keep logging those finds. If the fates are kind and our wrists hold out, who knows, perhaps we can reach the magical 10k mark. Wish us luck.

Sorry to be so late extending my condolences, but I hadn’t heard about this incident until 3 Hawks gave me a call while I was out of town. I want to express my deep felt sympathy….. to the rodent! Imagine his surprise and disgust to sink his teeth into a succulent chunk of flesh only to be left with the awful taste of Matt in his mouth. The ASPCA has issued warnings to all wildlife out there to avoid Hawkins consumption, but apparently Matt encountered an illiterate beast. It’s not often that you find 2 similar creatures in the same area at the same time. What are the odds? I hope both parties survive this trauma in the best of health.
