Congratulations, this club is growing in membership almost daily now!
How cool is this? Congratulations on your Lucky 1300, Pete!
Well, don’t hold your breath on that geocache session. I wrote back to the guy and haven’t heard a thing since. I’d asked for specifics they’d need and promised a write-up, emailed with sweech about working on it together and….nada.
I did get a great email from the author of the coffee table book I mentioned in another thread, though. I’d written my appreciation for her work and perspective, and she had just returned from a conference on environmental ed, where she’d presented. So…..the notion is clearly out there that geocaching is a way to connect our plugged in generation with the bigger world beyond the screen.
We’ve logged ours. We figure we did the legwork and then came and had fun along with everyone else. We don’t “find” our own caches or log temps, but this is one concession we make to the “numbers” game. For the number of events most of us host in our caching lifetime, it is a small number anyway. For us so far, that’s four smileys.
This is just a game and outside these forums or the gs forums, no one really cares anyway.
Finally, someone is appealing to all of us to stop discriminating against these poor caches and DO something to help them.
Congratulations on a milestone find, Bill. Two grand is looking closer all the time.
Congratulation Barry and Val. Good to see Val at Geobash, too, if only briefly.
Contact the owner of the physical caches close to your site to clear it with them. I’ve been asked to do that by geoaware (the approver for EarthCaches). No one has ever said no, although I did hear of someone in Iowa who refused on the basis she was going to put one out herself.
Looking forward to seeing what you’ve got up your sleeve!
We don’t own any of these…well, unless you count the challenge caches, and those are different, anyway…but when we’ve done ALR caches, we continue to meet the spirit of the placement. We are still seeking Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane for one, though!
I agree, Joe or Jane Average cacher has no clue about any of this. Which really, is probably the majority of folks out there.
Yep, dogs are okay under control and on a leash. There might be a rare exception, but overall, they are welcome except in the cemeteries. Have fun!
It’s a specTACular drive in the fall.
We have the old atlas. The cache in question is on page 48. Caches in Pepin, and I know there are a few, would cover 58A.
Good luck and welcome to Wisconsin’s West Coast!
Congrats you guys…thanks for letting me hang out and actually BE at the Bash while Trekkin’ was out doing the “cache part!”
We’ve had armchair loggers from Germany, the Netherlands and Mexico on some of our virtuals we adopted from Lil’ Otter. We’ve emailed those folks and told them a physical visit is required, then deleted the logs.
Not a squwack. They must be used to it. I don’t get it, but I guess different strokes. Sorry it got to be such a hassle, that’s one we hadn’t visited yet.
He he, I was just going to come on here and post this, too Dean. We figured it out on the way home today, and your last cache with us was their 9000th….they’re ALWAYS finding the best deals on milestones, LOL.
Congrats, you guys.
