    Congratulations! Now that you have your fourth digit you can get a bit of respect! (Now this is the part where I was going to insert a picture of Aretha Franklin with Jake and Elwood Blues, but the internet is useless). Glad you guys had a beautiful day!

    Can’t wait! I guess I need to officially quit caching within a hundred miles so I have something to find when the game begins :roll:. Maybe I can better my first finish in the hundred-and-somethings.

    in reply to: Where will you be staying? #1871063

    Heh, heh. I’ll be in my bed twenty minutes away 8) . But our schedules have finally worked out where we’ll be able to attend for a while, so we’ll be around the campfire til they throw us out.

    I will look for a cache that is archived to dump them in.

    Oooh… The idea is to use one of your own archived caches. If you start logging coins into someone else’s archived cache you’ll quickly get an email wondering what’s up. I use one of my archived caches as a holding place, you can also create a new cache but uncheck the box saying it is ready to be approved. Then it will be in your list of caches, but won’t go to the reviewers.

    So have you ever marked yourself to an unknown location? Worse yet, have you ever logged yourself into a TB graveyard 😯 ?

    As you can read, Ralph was quite a bit more honest than me, I’m sure my subtleties will be lost on the hider.

    in reply to: A new low? #1770462

    Ralph’s completely right on these. We had a fantastic time caching cross-border, but these two caches were the real lowlight of the trip. This is NOT an innovative new hiding technique. It was unseemly and gross, even in the middle of winter. Imagine the pleasure of finding this cache in July 😯 . I would refer the hider of these to Cheesehead Dave’s tagline from Genius Loci: “Any fool can throw a stone down a well…”

    The answer to your question is simple. As our college-age kids have told me, there’s nothing cool about geocaching.

    I’ve made my peace with not being cool anymore. Cool killed too many brain cells. That’s why I can’t solve many of Marc’s puzzles!

    Zuma You could hold a fishing contest or a kayak race where people could race against “Team Honeybunnies.” If they (Team Honeybunnies) lost they would have to give up their rights to the Moun10 bike geocoin. That would draw a lot of interest. 😆

    Heh. I’ve only ever paddled whitewater playboats really, so the hull is like a surfboard with a seat. Even when I work up a head of steam a granny in a canoe can pass me in a heartbeat. Planing hulls don’t make very good downriver boats.

    As for the Moun10Bike. Mine! Mine! No…Mine! Wait for it… Mine! Miney, mine, mine, mine! But I’ll let everyone who asks log it for sure. It wouldn’t be much of a gift if I didn’t share it.

    And if the geocoin poker does happen, I’ll be sure to throw something tasty in. The version at Coinfest 07 is using a three coin entry fee with winner take all I believe. Some very lucky person will become an instant collector.

    I would like to express interest in getting one (or more if multiple participants offer) in trade. I would gladly trade our personal coin, and possibly others. (our top40 record may be another option, or a couple of the new Hogwild stuff micro travel coins – my design)

    I’ve had your personal on my seeking list since I saw it, but haven’t contacted you. I’d gladly trade for one of them in any metal, and I wouldn’t mind a Top 40, if another or something else interests you. Drop a line!

    in reply to: Team Honeybunnies Scores a Mount10Bike #1769761

    My precious!

    The rest of the story is that I owe WI_Robin a deep debt of gratitude for this gift. I had a Tiki Yawp for trade that just was not going anywhere unless a once-in-a-lifetime trade came along. Well, oddly enough those seem to happen every day. She needed the Yawp for a Secret Cupid trade, and in a complex chain of events I am a proud new owner of a V3 Moun10Bike. I hope to share it with as many people as possible in the spirit of the thing.

    Is this why you don’t cache in the cold anymore Zuma? 😆

    Heh, heh. And the rebuttal…http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=3d61dc83-1872-483a-a409-dd702acd50eb

    Be sure to read the link to Zuma’s log from the cache page 😀 .

    in reply to: Wisconsin Geocoins #1769607

    The 2005 Wisconsin coin is sold out, but there are plenty still out there at the trading sites. I have one or two left and could maybe arrange something if you PM me. The WGA Campout coin is still available in a thread somewhere here in the forums and Team LightningBugs could happily help you with that one. Other than that, there’s talk of a Wisconsin 2007 coin and when a reservation list begins you could join us in waiting with bated breath 😀 .
