    Hi Peach,

    I think what you are looking for has been beaten to death recently in this poll:

    Maybe not?

    No Splash we are a creative bunch we can find many many many ways to beat the dead horse.

    in reply to: Blogging???? #1909734

    I have had this blog for a while now and at times forgot about it. It shows with the large gaps between posts. Lately I have been making some rather frequent posts. It started as a Caching blog but as I pulled away from my constant need to cache and now just use it as an accent to what I am already doing it has become more of an outlet for stuff in my life, with a bit of caching in between.

    With that being said when I saw this yesterday I just got home from a long day in Madison where my daughter was starting her 3rd round of chemo for her brain tumor and all this thread seemed so damn silly to me in the big scheme. TFTC or a 500 word essay doesn’t mean a dam hill of beans to the stuff that really matters in life.

    Aint that the truth. And without totally stealing the thread, I wish the best for your daughter. Sadly, I see this kind of personal trauma related to health crisis every day at work, and know how dramatically it affects patients and their families. Trully wishing you and yours the best.

    Thanks Zuma!

    Now back to your regular whining about stuff you can’t control.

    So where is the well written log to show appreciation for the cache placers effort?

    (unless you were messing with the owners).

    Didn’t realize there was a sore spot here. Obviously it took a little MORE effort to scan and post the certificate than to write a few lines of copy. I thought the owner would appreciate the humorous method of posting the find.

    Sorry Hemi, if there’s any residual resentment, not my intent and anyone can visit any other cache I’ve found (Marc-exception) to see that I am usually pretty expressive when I log, even on the simple ones. And, it’s not like I didn’t post something very appropriate and praise-worthy to the cache some time after the FTF…

    Well, I have not been actively pursuing revisits for the LCG, but this cache in particular is very special and deserves a visit. After all, the FTF I got on this one will go down as the most memorable of all my finds for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the reward I got for that find which turned into one of my favorite TB’s, the Seldom Seeker.

    All waypoints intact. I second-guessed myself on the final and it took a third pass to discover the container, even though I knew it had to be there. Everything is in decent shape. Dropped a lonely Jeep for incentive.

    S|S, there really isn’t any resentment with this log. I was just trying to make a point that not everyone is going to write the perfect log on all caches there are many different factors going into why individuals do what they do. I myself don’t care how someone logs a cache, however I do enjoy when there is a personal touch to the log.

    With that being said when I saw this yesterday I just got home from a long day in Madison where my daughter was starting her 3rd round of chemo for her brain tumor and all this thread seemed so damn silly to me in the big scheme. TFTC or a 500 word essay doesn’t mean a dam hill of beans to the stuff that really matters in life.

    I’d call that “scan & upload”

    So where is the well written log to show appreciation for the cache placers effort?

    …pencils to hand out as WGA PR stuff???

    Yes, this was your idea from Romp in the Stomp, and we are pursuing it.

    The basic idea is to have our name and web address on the pencil, give them to cachers to put into caches, and advertise the WGA in that manner. Pencils are cheap, and we are able use them to focus our advertising to potential members. It is seen as a membership growth program.

    Will they be the little golfing kind? that might fit into the smaller caches easier.

    I am not going to promise a picture everyday as my life is a bit to chaotic to guarantee you that. But I will put in an effort to post my best work as they show up. 2 days ago I purchased the Canon XSi and am learning how to use it ever since.

    Come see what I have done.

    After 3-4 years of reading these boards I am still looking for a new argument for my entertainment. Would one of you creative types PLEASE come up with something new. PLEASE!
