  • in reply to: NEW Lil Otter cache! #1930872

    New Bobcat caches are equally as welcome. He was one of the early driving forces in the western part of the state, and we’ve enjoyed many of his caches.

    Lil Otter posted a note last year to one of her old caches that we adopted. Still kicking, just not at the frantic pace that many of us now consider “normal” 😉 .

    If there’s ever an anthrax scare in Adams-Friendship I’m totally headed for Roche-A-Cri Mound! 😉

    I think this cache is still on our highlights bookmark list. Parking roadside I think the cache is maybe a .25 mile walk?… Fuzzy memories, but good ones. This cache packs a lot of what’s great about caching into one hunt. Good luck! Lots of stories, but no need for anything more than two feet to travel on.

    in reply to: Help needed: WGA Hwy CITO #1927410

    Yeah, add me to the unlucky who will be working… That does mean I can make the Appleton CITO though. While picking up trash will never bring fame or glory, our membership should keep in mind that these are the kind of community outreach efforts that people have wanted organized. You can’t present a good image if you don’t attend.

    I forgot one one how could I forget this one. – While doing a cache near a boat slip in Montello last summer a couple of young ladies started heading from their boat to the small woods I was in. I ducked down behind the pile of logs and they proceeded about their “business”. Eventually one of them spotted me and was extremely startled and wanted to know why I was watching them. Definately an interesting / awkward moment.

    While caching in the UP with Team Honeybunnies, we were interested in the 2 gals on the side of the road lifting their tops along highway 2 to get truckers to honk their horns. Mrs Team Honeybunnies and Robin were along on that trip, and they were not as interested as Seth and I.

    I skipped that as it’s not really a caching find. That happened while we were eating across the street. Still one of those great stories to trot out though. As they peeled out after realizing they were being watched one of them shouted “Girls Gone Wild UP Style!” 😆 .

    in reply to: Puzzle cache poll #1922204

    I answered other. I used to actively work on puzzles and share solves with others as we cached as a team. Sometimes the solves were mine, sometimes theirs, but relatively equal. I have been called out on it, and decided to end that practice. Having my integrity questioned logging puzzle finds took quite a bit of the pleasure away, and quite frankly there are plenty of challenging caches out there that only require that I sign the log book to prove myself. I still do the occasional hard puzzles (the S4s come to mind), but not nearly at the level of interest I previously had.

    Hoo boy, let’s see…

    At least a couple pinch pipes, the aforementioned possible meth lab cook site with Zuma, a “lonely person product” in one of Chicago’s tree parks, plenty of preventatives, and enough poached carcasses to make up for the shortfall the hunters were seeing in the woods this fall. I’m sure there’s more, but those come easily to mind.

    Cow tongue’s pretty cool though. There’s good eating on one of those… 😉 .

    in reply to: 2010 WGA Board Election Results #1922181

    An excellent body of candidates has yielded a great new board. Look forward to seeing everyone on the 28th.

    (GC182D3) Sagasus Sinister Semantic Search has 30 watchers.

    Hey I just solved that one. Any of you 30 watchers planning on doing it soon?

    Just solved it myself last night… 😉 . Not one of the watchers though.

    in reply to: Interesting caches you wish you could visit #1920571

    I keep a list of someday must-do caches. I used to include caches from all over the world, but have now pared it down to ones I’m likely to get to if motivated, all in the U.S. Still not a shabby list, including caches on top of Half Dome, Yosemite and on Mt. Katahdin in Maine. Time will tell?

    been there since 2001 and only 14 finders with 223 watchers.

    One of the WGA’s own LJ & Company found that one. She’s now left Wisconsin, but there were some great stories in the meantime.

    in reply to: Betty Boop #1919835

    Sometimes the graves of the famous can be pretty underwhelming. We’ve done caches at James Dean’s and H.P. Lovecraft’s graves, and they are small unassuming stones. Lincoln’s tomb is properly impressive though.

    in reply to: Betty Boop #1919832

    You actually told me more in one paragraph than I knew about Betty Boop. Sounds like you at least have a passing interest. Go for it 😀 .

    in reply to: Recent Logs Feature Temporarily Broken #1920151

    Actually, Zuma turned me onto one of the features I now check regularly, being able to see which caches have been recently archived. Sometimes it can be a bittersweet trip down memory lane. Nice to see what friends are up to as well.

    No question I’d like to be in on this one… Let’s see what dates coalesce and I’ll do my best.
