Thanks!

Just like most things, you don’t know how much you miss them until they are gone.

I realize that you put in a great amount of time in keeping this up and running.

You have my personal thanks!

Its okay Mr. Beast – I truly do miss you making all the official announcements anyway.

As simple as I can make it (presuming it is a Pockets Windows PDA):

Get a query from Geocaching.com
Put the file in the same subdirectory as Spinner
Hold your mouse key down on the file and drag it over the top of Spinner.
Spinner will automatically download it all to a file in the directory called Cache
Move files from cache to your PDA

Might be easier but thats how I do it.

Great job – I don’t suppose the beast knows how many at 100 now?
Keep it up!

[wzbt03]

Great job – more and more people in the 100 club – very nice!

Actually I was thinking of 100 caches in another state not milestones but that part is interesting too. I know that I hit the 200 milestone in Illinois at Triple Tree but also expect to hit 100 caches in Illinois at some point in the next 3 or 4 months.

[wzbt03]

Great job – but why is it as soon as you hit 200, everyone starts talking about 300? Enjoy the moment and congrats.

I think its the first. You are so pleasantly surprised that you have found “treasure” with the aid of a very complex device of which you were sure you could never operate.
However as you hit the milestones, you are able to put something back into geocaching, your experience, stories and encouragement to others.
I think back to how I did it when I began geocaching and just chuckle.
So thanks wikidmilk for teaching me the various functions of my garmin while hiding a cache together. Thanks JThorson for showing me how to use the find feature and how best to use it. Thanks Kbraband for showing how to enter waypoints on the fly.
Thanks Natloh2 for showing me how to interface the compass and the gps. Thanks Trudy & the Beast for encouraging me. Thanks Pharmteam for helping me make my caches better and sharing your stories.
And a host of others who make this whole geocaching experience a “family” event.
Of course not having 600 caches to judge by, perhaps that is that is the one where you get naked from joy and run around the woods – come to think of it I did not see Socko for a while after he scored his 600th…………..

[wzbt03]

Geotrippers, the last team to reach 600 in Wisconsin, has indicated that they will make it there too!
Looks like there will be some real experience in this group.

[wzbt03]

Great job – seems we have some very active cachers in the state.
Keep up the good work.

[wzbt03]

Just a thought (and there are some really great technical people who probably know what it is) but is there another program using you port you need to download on?
palm software is famous for this.
Try closing resident programs and then downloading.

[wzbt03]

Looks like the number of 100 cachers is growing by leaps and bounds. Congrats!

[wzbt03]

A mighty quick 200 caches. Congrats!

[wzbt03]

Thanks for all your efforts Ray!
I am sure that the reason you cannot keep up is directly porportional to the number of people you have motivated to go caching.
Great things you have done for all of us.

[wzbt03]

Great job – onward to the next milestone.
