Now I have to specify a location. Seems a bit contradictory doesn't it.... ?? I just want to bring up a list. I don't have a PDA or any of that fun stuff... I used to also be able to sort by date with http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?LTYPE=12&order=date But that is gone now as well.

quote:What shouldn't be in a cache? Use your common sense in most cases. Explosives, ammo, knives, drugs, and alcohol shouldn't be placed in a cache. So which one of these would this be considered? An Explosive?

quote:Originally posted by Boojum:I assume you have contacted the last person who picked him up? The cacher seems to have been active since picking up the TB, so he should have some idea what he did with it. The March 27 retrieved date appears to be incorrect. It should be January 12. METAL HURLENT then placed it in Golden Bridges on March 15. That was the last known location.

Cannonball Run: Dodge Viper RT/10 was last seen in Brockway Branch last February. He was confirmed missing last April; long before the cache was archived in July. If you have seen Dodge Viper or have any info on his where abouts please post here.

Smiley was last place in Golden Bridges last March. Well now he has been confirmed missing! Has anyone seen him or have any ideas to his where abouts?

Dodge Viper RT/10 Firebird IROC Monte Carlo Concept Pikes Peak Celica The Firebird won the first race to the East Coast. Now they are racing around the world. (But the Viper has had engine problems. )

Goodbye Hollywood has a log entry on July 30 of N 34 29.183 W 118 18.886 for this location.

So which planet would be good for Star Wars: The Travel Bug to head to next?

After several days and no response from the logger, I emailed the owner of the cache and asked him to delete the log. He did. Problem resolved.

I have the same thing happening (might even be the same log)... So far I have emailed the logger asking him to change his log and just use the reference number instead of the tag number. I also emailed the owner of the cache giving him a heads-up what is going on. Also told him that if I didn't hear from the logger soon, I would be asking him to delete the log entry. The owner emailed me back quickly asking what the big deal was. I tried to explain and reference this forum on TBs. I'll let you know as things change.

I do see the novelty of THIS bench. Did erik881 bother to even look at your picture? Maybe narrow it down to Mosaic Benches. Here is the link to the Book. It is called "Tiffany Garden Benches Pattern Book".

quote:Originally posted by pkpaul: Congratulations! For the next race, do you use the same cars? or release some new ones? Using the same cars from their current locations. So Firebird IROC would have a bit of a head start in the eastward direction. But because Monte Carlo Concept is still near the starting point, it could go around in either direction. And Dodge Viper RT/10 is still missing; or out with car trouble or something.

And the winner is: Firebird IROC who made it all the way to We don't need no education in Maine. The new race is to see who can now make it all away around the world and back to Sacramento, CA; the starting point.

So why was the cache not approved? If someone can list a Garmin rep being at a specific store like this event cache, then I would feel this is OK. I have had a run in with one of the moderators (I think it was Eric) before, and felt he was way off base. He didn't decline the cache... just deleted a whole portion of the description.

For Spot I used a combination of both ideas above... I cable tied a shortened chain to his arm.

quote:Originally posted by The 19th: When poking around the Elk Grove cache, I found several points of interest: On my way there, I saw a gravestone marked "Orville Sheldon" (either the person or related to the person that Sheldon Rd. and High School were named after). On it, there were several stones painted white and the message "Thank you" painted on them as well. I made a note to myself that I might want to research the name a bit. The Old Grist Mill also mentions another Sheldon.

quote:Originally posted by Markwell: Go to http://www.google.com Search on "site:www.geocaching.com superman" or whatever the name of the bug is. You MIGHT get lucky like that. I tryed this with all my travel bugs and found them all. Tried Riker and found nothing. Maybe he's gone. A lot of TBs go MIA.
