  1. Thanx again RuideAlmeida ! I will dig through those!
  2. Ouch! I guess I should have been more specific. I will be flying into New York (JFK), then Frankfurt, Germany (FRA). On the way back I will be flying out of Budapest, Hungary (BUD) with a layover in Paris, France (CDG)
  3. Getting ready for a bucketlist tour of some countries in Europe. Due to itineraries and being with a tour group caching will be tricky as is. Since I have some interesting layovers both on the way and on the way back I was wondering if there are caches in airports that I might be able to find without leaving the airport. And if so, is there a list of Airport Geocaches any where? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
  4. It's official!! Colorado's First Mega Event!!!! GC2XW58
  5. We got ours in the mail today! They are awesome!! Thanx YemonYime! For showing once again how the Geo-community can really make a difference!
  6. Congrats on the Find and all the new things in your life that transpired during your quest!! I would have never dreamed the cache was located in a war zone. Your new "ride" looks like it needs some work, starting with Armor Plating! You are awful brave to be sittin' in it considering you aren't wearing a bullet proof jacket and it appears to be a Bullet Magnet. Talk about a Rumble Seat!
  7. Welcome to Colorado! Don't know what part of the state you're in but you're in the right place. A lot of interesting and unique cachers were up in Fairplay at the Mountain Mardi Gras and 4x4 Caching Adventure event this weekend when you made your post. We found several interesting and unique caches while up there including a new FAVE, Penelope (A Night Cache) so we'll recommend that. The scenery is AWESOME and the wild flowers spectacular up there right now and in another month or so the fall foliage will be worth the trip alone. You might also want to check out Geocaching Colorado. Sign in and introduce yourself and you will find info on all sorts of interesting and unique caches as well as meet some interesting and unique cachers. Again, Welcome to CO. If you get up to the Ft.Collins/Greeley area, look us up!
  8. Almost forgot........there was also the one with the hint that said, "BIG BUSH"..................... Like we didn't know that.............................
  9. If this guy ZAPS micros in BIG pine trees, we'ld like to see him visit Greeley, CO. Our last foray over there ended up being almost nothin' but MIPTs. Tiny micros (more like nanos!) in BIG pine trees with co-ords off by as much as 137'....deliberately. Supposed to use the hint to find the cache. The hint?? BIG Pine Tree. No joke!!!! On one the co-ords take you 137' away across the street in the middle of 3 BIG pine trees. The hint: One of the two trees closest to a statue. Almost DNFed it, before deciding to check the trees 60' behind the statue across the street. We pulled up to the next cache (Traditional), got to GZ in the open middle of a park, read the description to find out the cache wasn't at posted co-ords it was an "offset cache" use the hint (no numbers, ie. x amount of feet at xxx degrees bearing). Found it 80' away. The next brought us to a small pine tree where a gnat couldn't hide and again after checkin' the hint: BIG pine tree, found it 40' away in a HUGE pine tree. Such was our whole day yesterday........SIGH!
  10. And I thought all those DAMP logs were from leaking containers, not leaking cachers!!! Now for sure I won't leave home without my stamper.............and rubber gloves........and Bio-hazard suit!
  11. If seals are good and no apparent "user error" it could be condesation issues as well. Just a thought.

  16. Lookin' GOOD all! For those havin' problems uploading photos: What we do is go to one of our trackables pages (you can also do this on a cache page), Hit the link to upload a photo and upload it to the page. After it uploads, go down to the image link and click on edit. On the page that comes up with the image on it, click (or double click) on the image to open the original. Then copy the URL from the browser address bar at the top of the screen and paste that into the box that comes up when you hit insert image on the forum reply. Once you've uploaded it to the forum post you can delete it from your trackable/cache page. Now let's see some more of those great photos!
