        You did it! Hurray! A big congrats to ma and pa ruby. Holy Smokes, and people say we’re tearing it up. These guys started caching a week after us and have 2.5 times the finds we do. 😯

          Way to grab your “prey!” Congratulations!

            Hi Dale, I saw that log even before cheezehead pointed it out, because we had also done these same caches recently. Trekkin’ grew up near here as well, so it was a fun way to spend a day.

            I’m another hardcore logger, and as a cache owner, I think I can speak for most of us that we enjoy logs like yours that tell a little of the experience you had. I know there are those quick number caches that can hardly muster more than “TFTC” but I can even make an adventure out of some of those.

            So keep on telling those stories!

            We much prefer the remote caches. You can find plenty like that in southwestern Wisconsin, too. The terrain is similar, only the trees are more often deciduous and the rocks sandstone instead of granite. We’re looking forward to a last bash of summer on the Lake Superior shoreline this weekend.

            P.S. Smart doe, Cheez-its are my new junk food of choice!

              Way to go, Bec! Great to see that between being presidential and having to work, you’re still able to get out and grab these!

                Or was she stuck with the wheel or whatever it was? We saw that at the Camp-Out, and it’s one I didn’t even bother to discover! LOL

                    I have friends who tell who stories this way….”Dincerella”….”she slopped her dripper.”

                    I only wish I could pull one like that off, cause they’re really funny.

                      Even the “King” himself has one of these in the Twin Cities area, and he does require 100 DNFs to log the find. Probably our next trip to see Mom and Dad, as it’s not far from their place!

                        Those of us who read these forums have a clue about this character, but lots of the ones he targeted don’t know. I’ve seen a couple get archived already.

                        One of sloughfoot’s I’d visited last spring was “hit,” and he simply said, “We won’t be taking orders from lycoperdon!”

                          I looked for that reference. That site tells you everything else, go figure.
                          I don’t remember that particular episode of Happy Days myself, but then again, there are lots of things I don’t remember these days!

                            Seth, That would assume this person is reasonable, too. Like imjedi said, in many cases they weren’t even reading the circumstances for the disabling. Parfrey’s Glen is CLOSED due to flood damage, that’s made clear in the logs and even the DNR manager for SNAs posted a log to that effect!

                            There are other similar things, even some that had been found recently. Sadly, even though lycoperdon has been banned, he could return as Pseudocolus schellenbergiae.

                            Scroll down…..

                              We got ours, but I was thinking we had to wait until tomorrow to run one.

                                I thought “jump the shark” was a term applied to that point in a popular tv show when it was on the decline? In fact, I think there’s a website by that name where people debate what that point is for different shows!

                                Yup, here it is.

                                  Right now, we have 115 of them, and Trekkin’s not finished logging from the West Bend thing. It really does help the owner and others to know there might be a problem with a cache. If a person has limited time, they might want to skip one that’s either gone or problematic, as indicated by multiple DNFs.

                                  I see it as a courtesy to all cachers. If a person doesn’t want to DNF, they can still write a note.

                                  I have also discovered that all our logged DNFs make us eligible to search for and log at least two more caches, one in Green Bay and one not too far from my folks in Minneapolis! So there are other perks! LOL
