Still lots of caches to find down here, so leave the ones in the Great Beyond till sometime in the distant future. Glad you got the treatment you needed and you’re on the mend. Take care!
5 DeLorme challenge complete, 45 more to go. (I know, not all states have the DeLorme, but if they did, Honeybunnies would come!) 😉
7000 for the zoomin’ zuma! Yay! 😀
Welcome to the game!
The only times we have cached with others was with my 90-year-old aunt and uncle (found two caches), and with a niece and her 2 daughters (3 years for one, 3 months for the other). Found two caches on that one too, and we were lucky enough to get those, when there was so much playground equipment in sight to tempt the 3-yr-old.
Guess we’re caching companions to the very old and the very young!

118 zumaIs this a hint for that one puzzle cache of yours? Now I can get back to working on that one.

Good thing it wasn’t one of those “stinky” caches! Way to go on #100!
700! We can only dream. Congrats on the milestone!
06/23/2008 at 3:28 am in reply to: Shake, Rattle & Roll -The Day Wells Shook #800 in Nevada #1891083Congrats on the milestone (and the last few you’ve knocked of–in short order, we might add). Stay safe out there caching–sounds like you’ve had some exciting hunts!
OK, how about a number that suits what you feel each cache is worth (hard vs. easy, you like it or it’s really so-so, etc.) 18 months out there? Twenty finds? Six months without any activity–like when it becomes a Lonely Cache and no one attempts to find it?
Geocaches are meant to stay out a while.
If you have difficulty maintaining a cache or it becomes too painful to see one so ignored, archive it. Otherwise, leave it for those of us who don’t live in the area and who would like to try some puzzle caches when we’re in the 54140 neighborhood.
Wait at least another winter on some. Some cachers like to solve the puzzles when the snow is too deep or the weather is too cold (or if one’s caching partner doesn’t like to go out much in the winter).
We put a puzzle cache out a week ago that no one has found, but the activity level isn’t as great here as it is where your caches are. No one has found a traditional cache of ours either that was put out at the same time.
Thank-yous for a usually thankless job. WGA3 ( 🙂 ) was really rocking Friday night, and then WisKid took over later on the weekend.
When we first started, we would see the names of the reviewers on the cache pages and wonder how they got the reviewing job if they had 0 finds! Now we know that’s just their reviewer personae, but they really can’t get out as often as the rest of us can because they are doing their jobs so thoroughly and so well.
And, no, we don’t have a questionable cache coming up for review! This was all said in all honesty! 😉
Hey, we have four new ones that have been out since Friday–no hits yet. (SadowskiFamily is out of the state.) Four FTFs waiting…
At least five new caches near us, nine in the Coloma series out less than a month, none under water…time for a run to the Highway 21 exit off of I-39 or a nice day trip for a break from the Dells, if you’re there.
It could be worse. You could have placed a new cache on November 30, 2007, and had it been under snow till mid-April (unless it was in the Appleton area!).
Great job on the milestone, seldom|seen!

congratulations on the big 1K
I really enjoyed the Coloma sesquicentennial series. a definate must do when in the area.
We nominated the series for June COTM. We may be partial here in central Wisconsin, but a SadowskiFamily cache can usually be counted on to be pretty good.
