Mine comes from one of my other hobbies. Dog Sledding. We have a team of four Huskys that we team up with for some fun in the woods. Thought of using them for geocashing but getting them to stop while I look for a cashe would be next to impossible.

Funny one here
Out looking for a cashe today and the arrow on my compass would always point toward my body no matter which way I was walking or facing. It was only the arrow that seemed to be affacted. Everything else seemed to be working fine.
Tried everything to fix it and nothing worked. (Thought, great, now I have to send this brand new unit into get it fixed.) Everything worked fine yesturday, so what was I doing different? I had the Nikon d200 with me, was that the problem? Took it back to the truck and set off again. Nope, still had the arrow facing me no matter what. Then it finally dawns on me (not the smartest sometmes) It was a cold morning and I had on a pair of the kind of gloves that have the fingers cut off and a mitten flap that can cover the open fingers or be pulled back, exposing the fingers so you can work on things. When the mitten flap is open it is held in place by a couple of apparently very strong magnets. After I took the gloves off and stowed them in a back pocket the unit worked fine. Took me awhile to figure it out but I finally did. Glad nobody was around at the time to see my embarrassement. Kinda funny now
