I was wondering when a road is widened along with say a bridge containing a benchmark do the construction crews routinely destroy the benchmarks or do they sometimes reset them? I went out to a suposed benchmark site that was placed on a bridge and now after widening of the bridge there is no benchmark. However 2 elevation markers were placed on adjacent sides of the bridge. Are these new elevation markers taking over old benchmarks? The Department of Redundancy Department

hey I know sawdust92 is in Waco and he might be able to help you. He doesn't frequent the boards much or I haven't seen him but he is a very active geocacher. You might want to e-mail him. You can get to his profile through my only cach. The Department of Redundancy Department

hey I'm from north west houston and tried registering for the texasgeocaching.com boards but it would never take me past the contract page. Are they working on that or what? The Department of Redundancy Department

hey thanks for the help snoogans. I just discovered the texas geocaching site today so I'll check that thread out. Don't be too hard on sawdust because he was kind enough to answer my very naive geocaching questions before I started coming to these boards. The Department of Redundancy Department

hey thanks guys, so I guess the only real way to help it go away is to make sure I stop itching it and to dry the wonderful oozing mess. I guess this lotion I have already will just have to do. I've been noticing the infected areas are starting to crack with dryness, which is a good thing. thanks again oh and bkaysimon, I guess you could call me a central and southeast Texas geocacher. Waco during the school year and Houston during the summers. Hey I get more caches that way!

I went on my first geocache search just over 2 weeks ago and after signing the log book, and walking out of the thick brush the cache was hidden in my friend and I look back and say "All that we just walked through was poison ivy!" Lets just say I have it all over my legs. It itches like crazy and I don't think I've ever had it this bad. I bought this itch relief lotion called Caladryl Clear that the Wal-Mart pharmacist recommended but it still won't go completely away. Anyone have any other methods of getting rid of this stuff? old family recipe? witch's brew? HELP!

I'm interested. If you'd like to conduct this in private my e-mail is pnewsome53@hotmail.com I don't frequent these forums too often
