        Mike, I will never forget those sage words of inspiration you shared with us at our last meeting: “A grenade thrown in a french kitchen results in Linoleum Blownapart.”

        Kudos Miata!

                    Timing, Mike. Timing.

                    We had an NF today if that means anything.We had stated the goal of 1K by the end of the year. We are really trying to keep the cache a day pace up.

                    Next weekend we will be going to the Richard Bong Rec Area with Team Synergy to do the 1K.

                      Hey, I like that idea. I am going to start carrying one today. I will have a few spares in my pocket for other cachers who want to do the same. Today, we plan on being in Kiel if you want to be the first to sign our log.

                        Or A cache that does move..
                        Or A TB that is a photo album of cachers met on the trails and never leave the hands of it’s owner..

                        The pocket log book has been used at the Nashville invitational a couple of years ago, at the Estabrook park breakfast, at the Middleton breakfast and a couple of others.

                        They are all great ideas for keeping the interest level high. Purists complain, but if this game were only for purists, all caches would be ammoboxes hidden in a hollow log 0.5 miles from the nearest parking place and 5 miles from the next cache.

                        Personnaly, I would like to see all cachers carry an autograph book for cachers met on the trail [events wouldn’t count here, for the purists in this facet].

                          Of this budget, annual park entrance fees were of greates interest to me. http://dnr.wi.gov/org/nrboard/budget1.pdf at the bottom of page 3 I found this effort to justify the increased fee:

                          “Wisconsin’s current annual vehicle admission prices for residents in 2004 are at least 20% less than neighboring states levying a vehicle entrance fee:

                          Minnesota $25
                          Indiana $24
                          Michigan $24″

                          They convieniently omitted Iowa, Illinois [where there currently is no such fee], North Dakota and South Dakota [$20 each]. In fact there were 10 states that had no such fee as late as 1993 TN, WA, IA, KA, HI, IL, KY, OH, OK, PA . Using common practice is not justification for this fee increase.

                            Today’s Journal Sentinal reports that the Natural Resources Board Voted 7-0 to approve the 2005-2007 Budget.

                            I assume the proposed budget that they approved was the governor’s.

                            Here are the proposed reductions: http://dnr.wi.gov/org/nrboard/budget.pdf

                            Here is the proposed budget for revenue: http://dnr.wi.gov/org/nrboard/budget1.pdf

                              There are several witnesses that saw you “attending” the temporary caches at the event Randy. You need to fess-up, admit you where there! Log the temp caches.

                                  Bird 52 is now operational.
                                  This means more reliable locations.
