I can still get the links to work on my Mac.
Snowing like crazy, but still snow.

I placed another 6 traditional, easy to find, winter friendly caches today. 2 have been published and the other 4 are pending. 5 of the 6 are in the Biron area, near the event location. The sixth is at Mid-State Technical College, which is just a few miles away. See you Sunday!
Excellent! Thanks for the placements for all of us to find. Hope people aren’t too busy caching that they can’t take time to spend a couple of hours inside! 😉 Looking forward to Sunday and seeing everybody.
Nice news. Happy happy and all that to you, Anne and Jeremy!
Kind of defeats the purpose to have an indoor cache in San Diego. 😉
Tis the season to be jolly…
Congratulations, Digital_Dan! And multis can equate to double the work of traditionals, or more. Nice work!

Hey that’s right……. Lil’ Otter adopted out many virtuals.
Think she did a lot of her adoptions in summer of 2007, right before we got into geocaching, but I’d have to check. Don’t know about the virtuals.

Okay, maybe it was because I had to pay at the winter parking lot at Roche-a-cri last January (BRRRRRR)
had to have the temporary slip on the dash and they sent my sticker later.Yep. Before you need a sticker this time, just go to Hartman Creek (or any state park) when the office is open and pick one up for yourself, or you could go to the Wautoma DNR center if they still do over-the-counter stuff. Slap it on the vehicle when we get a warm day. You’re set for another year.

Guess I’ll have to pay out of state prices.
I plan on returning to Gov Thompson State park in the spring to clean up the caches there, then hit some other state parks that has multiple caches.
Only ten bucks more for out-of-staters. All the same advantages. Since you’re in Wisconsin all the time, T3, spring for the annual sticker.

So how do you give them as gifts??? Don’t you need to enter the license number and vehicle info?
That would be a great FTF prize 😉
I was thinking the same thing.
The ones we give are to family members. We just pick them up at a state park when the office is open. You can do that also at a DNR service center, if any of those are open after budget cuts. 🙄 You get a gift card holder and envelope if you want them, and you can mail them to the recipients or stick them under the tree, or put them in a larger wrapped box so they can’t guess what they’re getting.
As far as license and vehicle info, they didn’t request any. They used to want our license plate numbers when we got the second sticker at the same home address for half off, but they haven’t in quite a while. (We always get two because we never know which car we’ll have when we’re driving around, plus we load up and take both cars camping on our main trip not too far away.) The sticker colors are different for regular stickers, half-price stickers, and out-of-state stickers, so if you try to get by cheaper with some underhanded tactics, there is a way for them to tell if a sticker isn’t on the right kind of vehicle.
You can also order the state park stickers online, but they probably wouldn’t get here in time for Christmas now. And for seniors 65 and older, the half price sticker is good for your first vehicle, too. We have also had a windshield replaced once, and gotten new cars during the season, but if you carefully scrape off the existing sticker and bring in the remnants, they will issue a replacement sticker for that vehicle.
Parks stickers are good for 365 days, not just nine. And you don’t have to wear special orange clothing, and you’ll have lots of good memories. 😉
Congratulations on #300, yogaroos_friends! And hey, TBC–send them an invite to here!
Too many of those blow-up holiday figures in one yard. That is just too creepy!
