  1. Maybe that is why I could never get the new app to work on my tablet. Very frustrating since the old paid for app worked so well. My solution was to install one of the unmentionable apps and I have never had a problem with it
  2. The bridge is an alternative means of traveling to and from the island and replaced only one of the ferry services (at least from May to December). The ferry price is $69 for most passenger vehicles (including all passengers) and is only charged when you leave the island. For as long as I can remember, ferry fees have been charged only upon departure. The bridge toll is $45 when you leave. You may be right about only paying in one direction, although I seem to recall paying both ways at Borden. I also recall that there was a charge per passenger plus the vehicle. I have only taken the remaining ferry at Woods Island once and cant recall the cost. . I hate to admit this but Pa is right again. When the ferry was owned by CN Rail and known as CN Marine they were more than happy to take your money at Borden and Cape Tormentine. As a cost cutting measure the ticket booths were taken out of Tormintine sometime after the CN Marine split from CN Rail and became known as Marine Atlantic. I worked in Borden for a summer and as an employee I got on free but I still had to pay for my vehicle.
  3. Its easy to "print" on wood. Just print what ever you want on plain white paper, coat the wood with a heavy coat of exterior varnish, lay the paper on the wet varnish and brush on a second coat. Try to remove any air bubbles that may haved formed. The paper will go transparent and you will have to look close to see it.
  4. Just outside of St. Johns, in Logy Bay, is The Lookout: the first ever cache in Newfoundland. Its a short hike on the rugged eastcoast trail. If you can get to Bell Island, NaGeira's Treasure is a must do.
  5. I think it is about 550 feet, which if I converted correctly should be about 167m
  6. The cache in question was always a multi, never a traditional. I changed the waypoint when a new home built close to the start waypoint. Note sent to Cache-tech, hopefully this cache will be up and running again soon. Thanks everyone for your comments.
  7. I have a cache that I am trying to unarchive but when I try to edit the listing this is what I get "Sorry. This listing has been locked by an administrator and you cannot edit it. If you believe this is in error please contact the web site." I have tried e-mailing a reviewer and recieved no response. Can a listing that is locked be unlocked and was I wrong to expect a reply from a reviewer?
  8. Hey BuS RiDeR you did a good job on this cache. I had a great time hiking into it. Don't become discouraged if it is not logged for extended periods of time, check some of the near by caches sometimes months will go by without a find
