A good bottle of wine and assorted hors d'oeuvres. ============="If it feels good...do it."================

I met a brand new geocacher yesterday on the trail to a cache. In conversation, he indicated that he was going to set up a private cache hunt for one of his church groups. I asked him how he heard about geocaching. He replied that he had read an article in the paper a week ago. (That article about geocaching featured me!) He indicated that others in his church had read the same article and wanted to learn more about the sport. Looks like our little game is expanding expotentially(sp?) And personally I think that is good for geocaching although I do see logistical problems in store for the future. (like not enough GPSrs to go around ) Also, I have aleady been asked to host a geocaching program for a youth group at another local church. ============="If it feels good...do it."================

Go to the stats tab and click on the icon at the left of a given category.

If you will allow me to expand your topic just a bit...I think it would be interesting to see a "directory" of user names (could possibly include web pages).

= = = = = = Yes, "tanks" for the effort. .

Personally, I liked the one before "Mr. Ugly." It gave him dignity. .

Your "completely useless" webpage may be just that...but I enjoyed it. Very professional. ..

Long distance canoeing and primitive camping. Long distance bicycling and primitive camping. Primitive camping in the worst weather I can find. And birding. ....

hmmmmm....not a bad idea at all. I had actually thought about buying an old public phone and setting it up (not connected) to use for a cache container.....also a newspaper stand......

Also, if you post of photo of your travel bug, be sure the number on the tag is not ledgible. It is possible to "virtually steal" a travel bug and "virtually place" it into another cache. ================= ========

I don't know that they are allowed, but check out "Virtual Victor:" http://www.geocaching.com/track/track_detail.asp?ID=22973

***** We do however, need to clean out the smelly sock drawer. . .." "..

I've owned a GPSr for about 7 years. I used to use it while canoeing and bicycling. Now, when I'm not geocaching, I tie it on the back of my cat to see where he goes at night..... .

Choice: Haven even tried. Observing your profile, you haven't either. . (I don't mean to sound sarcastic) WELCOM TO OUR CRAZY SPORT...I'm a relative newbie, too. . [This message was edited by sept1c_tank on July 13, 2003 at 08:49 PM.]

YOU SHOULD POST THIS TWICE!

.........QUOTE: (ChurchCampDave).......... We should thank the environmentalists for bringing problems to our attention, but use enough common sense that we don't throw out the baby (geocaching, technology, economy) with the bathwater (pollution, waste, over-use, delibarate damage). Geocaching does not do any relevant damage to the environment... ................................................ =================I AGREE======================

Can't seem to get the link. OK, here: http://www.indystar.com/print/articles/2/056250-9462-015.html

A reporter found me geocaching last week. Here is the story: C:WINDOWSProfilesDickDesktopHide and seek goes high-tech.htm

Jambo, Mzee!

So does this mean my GPSr will work better for caching?

I bought a fair quantity of geobuttons (by honeychile). In quantity, they're around $1 or less. They are quite professional and attractive and they come in a variety of interesting styles. I've noticed that they are usually picked up by the next finder(s). I can't seem to remember how to find honeychile's buttons on the web, however. Maybe someone else can post the link. I think she does customized buttons too, so you could use them as signature items.
