    78 Days! Wow! I would be happy with 7 or 8 days in a row.

    After looking a little closer, I stand corrected.
    (But they MIGHT be related.)

    I think they’re related to this guy.

    Congrats! Our best to all three of you.

    When I read your post, I felt a small twinge of guilt at being party to the “We’ll have to come back here” logs. But, after thinking about it for a few minutes, I realized that we DO revisit some of the locations that we have learned about from geocaching. When I occaisonally go to Radtke Park on my lunch break to sit on a bench and look out over the lake, I don’t relate it to geocaching, but that’s where I found out about the park. The same goes for other parks/picnic areas/nice spots that we’ve learned about because of geocaching. They have become part of our everyday world.

    One could make the same remarks you have about someone taking a vacation to, say, Florida or The Cayman Islands. Is it necessary to go so far? Lots of nice places in Wisconsin… At 21.1 lbs of CO2 per gallon of jet fuel, I can do a lot of driving to caches.

    If the hard reset doesn’t work, you should be able to use a memory card to install both of the frameworks. My PPC won’t sync with Vista, so the memory card has been the only way to get info from the computer to the PPC.

    Anybody see any smart cars yet?

    We saw one cruising right along with highway traffic on Hwy. 190 in New York a couple of months ago. We got a little closer look at it in town a little later. That was way back when gas was only $3.49 a gallon.

    We’ll be there. We’ll be camping on the North side of the grounds, but my wife also reserved a room at the BW. 😕
    It’s hard to plan for caching this early. Way too many new ones will be out by then. We’re just going to make sure to hit at least one in Illinois because we’ve had two swipes at the state and missed.

    in reply to: Wisconsin Delorme #1889447

    Wow. I hadn’t checked in a while. We’re 1/4 done! 🙂

    Wow! Way to go TE!

    in reply to: Temporary caches #1888472

    To me, a cache is a cache.

    How would you log a cache listed on Navicache or Terracaching on GC? It’s not possible unless they are listed on GC. Temp caches are not listed on GC.

    in reply to: Rick Blick Climbs "Bald Peak" to record #900 #1889086

    Wow! Way to go guys! Congrats on 900!

    in reply to: Most visited cache? #1889048

    You get alot of virtuals too that way.

    Those can be filtered out.
    Sustained hit rate. Ok. New caches don’t count. Filter ’em. Getting closer.

    You could, in theory, write a program to view each cache page and record the number of logs

    Or a macro to DL every log. Already doing that, but it’s not practical for the reasons you mentioned.

    The PQ seems to be an area that could use lots of enhancing, mainly because the PQ seems to be the answer to many “can I do this” type questions about the site because they don’t offer the functionality elsewhere. It’s also an area that customers actually PAY to use.

    PQs are probably the most valuable feature for premium members. I find them a bit limiting, but most cachers probably aren’t data freaks like I am. GC has to draw a line somewhere on how much data a single user can grab, so I can’t complain. All cache logs would be a nice option…

    in reply to: What does YOUR GPS say? #1889037

    Mine doesn’t say anything. You have to look at it.
