      Boy, I’m glad I ran across this post in the forum… wondered where the other flag had gone. More to come?

      Gotta get me one of them avatar things. 😉

        Is it OK to use some of these places as waypoints in a multicache? If you’re just there to get some information off a sign or looking for a certain feature, are you considered “suspicious”?

              8 inches in Adams…so much for the 1-3 they were predicting. Still have a whole bunch of the old stuff left in the yard, too.

                    YES! Of course, it had to be a Mac problem. (If it’s not that for us, it’s a dial-up problem.) Clicking on the calendar didn’t work either. Any other expected roadblocks for a Mac and Safari user?

                    Oh, those fabulous reviewers! We’ll trust them to handle the date issue when the time comes. Thanks!

                      Saw full asphalt on our street today for the first time since December 1.

                      Our potholes have been ones in the ice that never really got the chance to leave the roads.

                      Now the snow melt is making alluvial deposit patterns in the season’s sand dump in the street as the water finds its way to the storm drains. Could be an earthcache in that.

                        I’m not sure what you are seeing with your date issue…

                        It’s somewhere in the middle of the page that says date placed then 12/03/1901 or something like that, and I can’t change the date. Is this done when the cache gets published? Right now at the top of the page when I view my listing, I’m seeing a cache that was placed in 1901.

                        And there’s still no FTF on that one!

                          Do you keep track of your own number of caches when approaching a milestone? We have found that even though we log our caches in the order we find them, and the dates accumulate in reverse order (most recent first), within a given date the finds are listed in logging order instead of reverse.

                          Thus, the first cache we ever found shows up as second because we found two that day. So if you made a milestone cache your last of the day and posted it last, it wouldn’t show up as that number??????

                          So, do you keep track of your own number of caches when approaching a milestone? Or should you just log for the day in reverse order of the find?

                          (It’s easy keeping track of 59 finds… 😐 )

                            Nothin’ much else to do but go geocaching,

                            (You DO have electricity there, or has this newfangled daylight savings thing given the folks there an extra hour before they have to roll up the streets?)

                            Know where you’re coming from…except the porcelain is “connected”.

                                I do wonder about one thing. For those of us who like to include pictures and such in our listings, does that scare away folks with slow connections who don’t want to wait for it to load? I’ve always wondered if that’s much of an issue.

                                We have dial-up AND we like to work with photos, so we will be trying this, but maybe not for the first one.

                                Don’t make your travel plans for Adams County yet. We still have plenty of snow to wade through, and we are not the most adventurous with ice around either.

                                  Is that why we had all that snow this winter? Change daylight savings time to year-round and we’ll have global warming in the winter, too?

                                  No more snow now that we’ve gained that extra hour. Yay!
