We will write a note in logbooks that can handle it as well. With Poohs Pal joining us and trading, we’ll let him share what he traded for what in his logs. Actually, he just makes up stuff when I ask him how to log, except for the “we found it!” part.

So I still have to ghost write the majority of his stuff. 🙄

Congratulations you two!

We’ve been at this just a little over a year longer than you have, so our reflections are similar. We do like climbing, swamping and all that fun stuff and the hiking staff is (usually) left behind as it just gets in the way. We remember that the caches were for the most part at least the size of a small tupperware container, people actually wrote a note along with their name and date in the logbook, and there might have been as many as two caches in a three mile hike. One was enough, as the places we went were worth the time to enjoy and explore in and of themselves.

Oddly, though we’ve sure done more than our share of nanos, guardrails, dead ends and series of finds, the ones like I mentioned were the norm “back in the day” continue to be our favorite type of hide to seek. The changes in the hobby do serve to make it more accessible to more people of all types of ability, so that isn’t a bad thing at all. When we long for the “good old days,” we just remind ourselves of that fact.

Thanks h1of2….what I did before looked more like this. My son has a friend who is an IT guy, and he did tell me in passing that they’ve buried this stuff a lot deeper than it used to be, to make it easier for those trackers to follow you.

Did anyone see Person of Interest the other night? Yes, it’s crazy fiction, but that episode sure had an element of truth for today’s world.

I think I solved my own problem…maybe. I went to Chrome’s help center, but I think I managed to delete ALL my cookies.

I am so sorry to hear this. Far too soon. Though we did not get to meet him, I did some of his hides along the lakefront in port Washington and enjoyed them a lot.

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Congratulations, and how perfect that some of your favorite things…the WGA and Hartman Creek…came together at just the right time to mark your milestone. Hurray!

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Thanks for the tip…..I’d never used an e-reader, but when I broke my arm last winter, getting the Kindle app for my iPad and a bunch of free books was such a godsend. Free is always good, too!

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Congratulations Ed. We have to agree that we’ve enjoyed reading your logs and always hope for logs of that type when we hide ’em. Well played indeed!

[Trekkin and Birdin]

You can call it….Three More Than Us!

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Wow, a heist worthy of a big milestone! Congrats, Pete…you can call on us for a character witness if need be. 🙄

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Congratulations to Jim, placer of the kind of caches we like to find…..meaning you’ve gotta hike a bit and then it’s a gorgeous area. Well played!

[Trekkin and Birdin]

You’re a step ahead of us then, Becca. 🙄

[Trekkin and Birdin]

So sorry to hear this..our hearts go out to her family and friends.

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Congratulations! That seems to be cracked up to be THE milestone cache for many a good egg these days.

You may groan now! 🙄

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Congratulations on finding lots of them!
