    Hello ! icon_smile.gif

    lulu of the team woof & lulu.

    Our daughter(cactus flea), who is in the army, got us hooked on geocache hunts. My husband did the first out of curiousity, and then we went from there.Doing some caches with our daughter & son in law in southern arizona.

    It gets us off our butts and out in the fresh air and sunshine, Which at our age is important.

    We are going to Vegas the first week in Oct. and have some caches printed off to do. Then on to a touring trip thru Texas, with a whole bunch of caches to do!

    And when is it acceptable to take 2-3 items and leave only one?..that will deplete a cache quicker then anything.

    I guess its a matter of being less self indulgent, and thinking of others, especially the cache owners.

    We are getting ready to put out three caches, and I have had a really good time looking for stash for them, but find some of this awful discouraging to read.

    My read is: Geocaching is based on the honor system. Some people have it, some don't.

     

    Just pick one....

    "Virtuals" are old and overdone?

    These roadside signs are part of our history, and some of us find them fascinating to read and/or visit.

    On a day of rememberance that is an ironic statement.

    That is quiet an ironic statement. The only way people will stop to read these is if they get a smiley for them. I live near Kennesaw Battlefield and have read many of the signs around the area. I didn't have to get a smiley to do it. I wanted to know the history of the area. I stopped. If your interested in these signs... stop.

     

    My statement above was in answer to a previous entry that stated Virtuals where old and overdone. (Said entry has now been altered) My point was that not all local historic points are well published or known outside that particular area. How many times do you drive by something that you did not know had historical value until it was pointed out to you. Geocaching or not we stop for things that are of interest to us too, but would like the opportunity that the virtuals provide by pointing out what is not obvious.

    I agree with you that somebody might just learn something.

    If anyones choice is not to do virtuals, fine, but bashing them is just wrong.

    It would be sad indeed if geocaching became only about possessing things, (cache treasures, stats, smileys) without the virtual history of the area.

    We have done alot of locationless ones, and believe me they are just as hard work as regular caches. You have to FIND the subject requested and meet the criteria set by the owner.Takes time and effort, but well worth it as some of these things are disappearing of the face of the earth (stone silos, aquaducts, drive-ins) and it creates a wealth of history in the pictures taken and stored here that are not compiled anywhere else. History is rememberance.

    I like all caches, they all have their place, but I think TPTB are the ones that have set the quides and should ultimately have the final say

    GPS in the news

    Just playing devils advocate here.

     

    You would be surprised how many companies do keep track. They might not use the information right away, but if you leave under less then favorable circumstances, it can be used again you for any claims you might lodge against them.

     

    People just dont realize in how many different ways they are being kept track of, take the little micro computer installed in a percentage of cars now. Do 10 miles over the speed limit and have an accident, and you might find your insurance company not paying because they can use this little tidbit as an out.

     

    But on the upside....sure am glad I have a GPS & cell phone just in case something happens while caching...at least I will know where I am and can call the coordinates for rescue.

     

    Thankfully falling off a mountain does not change the coordinates much, only the altitude and attitude...
