I’ve been playing with the Windows 7 beta and it seems to run really good on lower end hardware. I had it on my Fujitsu S6210 and it ran really good. You might want to check it out or wait til it comes out later this year.
Well Winnebago was the lake I was thinking about. Its a big lake and pretty safe to drive a good distance out on.

There is a 1/5 island cache in Pewaukee.

It seems to be working out OK (aside from a few missing containers).
Ah nice, we got an island cache here in Menasha as well. But it is surrounded by moving water that doesn’t freeze. But has a cache ever been layed out only in the winter months just sitting on the ice in the middle of a lake?
Due to cache permanence rules such a cache “shouldn’t” be approved. Not in Wisconsin anyway…in colder areas that do not thaw that shouldn’t be a problem and I’m sure has been done.
Ah ok thanks, just had an idea and didn’t think it hurt to ask.
Heres the link to the one done in Menasha http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GC16W5J

Anyhoo Welcome
Nah I don’t own a Ford, the only Ford I ever drive is the F350 at work, and that is rare.

I can’t wait til the snow melts so I can find some of those that aren’t the most winter friendly caches.
Snow, who stops caching due to a little snow…slow down maybe, stop never.
Either way if you get down in SE Wisconsin area we are always looking to team up with other cachers and have some fun
I haven’t stopped because of the snow, I learned to how to geocache in this stuff. It can be -17 out and I will still be out there looking. Not for too long at those temps but I will be out looking. Thanks for the offer to team up. I normally don’t venture that far south of the Valley. Oshkosh at the most, Fond du Lac at the greatest. I mainly go north to visit family and friends. If anyone is wanting to team up in Oshkosh, the Valley or Green Bay I am interested.

Welcome to the game. Always fun to hear how others came to discover it, I guess that little icon has merit!
I have a Camry myself. Trekkin’ has a Saturn.
Thanks for the welcome, my wife has a Camry as well. We just got it last year, she loves it.

Welcome aboard, hope to enjoy caching as much as rest of us seem to
Thanks for the welcome, I can’t wait til the snow melts so I can find some of those that arn’t the most winter friendly caches.
I wish I had an iPhone. Question for those who do around the Fox Valley.. Do you have good service and reliability?
Ha ha, how did I guess you would be the one to start this? Thanks Jim and Linda for the welcome and the past help you have given me.
Well I’m 23 and married. I work 3rd shift at a local factory in the Fox Valley. I used to live in Appleton for a few years when I was in grade school but then I moved up to Wabeno and finished school. I found my way back to the Valley due to the lack of jobs up around Wabeno. I drive a Toyota…. but I bet you all figured that one out by now. But seriously its a 02 Tacoma and I love it.
Yeah I’m having a blast. I wish I would have known sooner about Geocaching. I should thank Garmin for putting the Geocaching icon on some of its receivers. Without that I would have never have known about Geocaching.
I plan on placing a few of my own caches soon, I went out and bought a couple of ammo boxes. Just waiting on permission and the right time to go out and do it.
Hmm, let me give it a try… 5-8-09
