I think we are out for tomorrow.
As for Lion, you could probably do it if you have a bible with you. Call me on my cell if you get stuck. I will have my data sheets with me.
As for Bible Accuracy, at this point with WP3 missing. I would skip it.
Have fun. See you tomorrow night.

Lost Boyscout, green & gold and myself may join you. I won’t know until Saturday morning.
Uncle_FunStill in the works. My pizza event on 3/17 is taking a priority at this point.
Uncle_FunThere is a person at the Milwaukee County Parks system that I have worked with in the past. I will try to contact him to see what is up.
Uncle_FunWhy is corn being used for Wisconsin? Nationally, Wisconsin ranks 10th in production? Even Illinois is better than that at 2nd. I know it probably has to do with the green and gold theme, but I never think of Wisconsin when I see corn.

Wow, pretty cool. Seeing as I grew up in Greenfield, I figure I better place my order. Which I did.

Nice job on the milestone. Hey, didn’t you lose your GPSr in Sheboygan back in October? Must be using the force to keep on caching!
Sorry, Yes, it would be for a geocaching breakfast event.
Maybe someone could let me know in a email who to contact to actually make arrangements to borrow it, assuming the event gets past the planning stages.

Thanks Dave!
I have really missed this from House of Brews site. I like that it tracks milestones as well. Even predicts when the next one will happen. Talk about pressure.

Compass? What’s a compass? Isn’t that why I bought a GPSr?
I agree… this is a well done cache. I have also done several others by this cacher and have not been disappointed. Check em out!
32 pages done. Looks like it is time for a road trip.
Looks like I can now make it, at least for part of the day anyway. I am planning on doing some early morning caches at sunrise in the area. Anyone interested in joining me? Robin? Bob?
Here is a portion of the response that I received. I responded in a very nice and appropriate manor, letting him know that he is lumping geocachers with the wrong groups. This particular location is visiting all summer long by various Boy Scout groups with a nearby camp, my Boy Scout Troop included. Every time we take out bags of trash from the boaters/party goers. Incidentally, there are two permanent first come first serve campsites on this island, that they apparently have no intention of closing down. They even installed a raised toilet seat over a tank to keep that piece more sanitary. Hard to view this any other way than, “No, because I said so…”
After consulting with other DNR personal and reviewing our policy, a geocache on the island in Lake Wabikon is not appropriate.
Many of our State-owned islands are receiving heavy use from boaters, party goers, ect.. I currently have three islands I am in the process of rehabilitating because of too much human activity.
It is our responsibility to maintain our state-owned islands in a natural and undisturbed condition consistent with controlled public use. Each state owned island
should be managed for its most desirable use. If suited for recreational purposes, we need to be sure every effort is made to maintain the natural condition, aesthetic qualities, natural forest growth, and the protective vegetative cover.
Thank you for taking the time to pick up the litter on the island. Forest County has thousands of acres of public land that should be suitable for this type of recreation.

The DNR just shot down my first attempted cache hide with them. Hope others have having better luck.
