I am happy to say that I am a single, female, brunette cacher. I have been at this great game for about 1 year. I usually cahe with my children who are 9, 7, and 5. Sometimes with littler ones that are visiting. I also have a hard time getting anyone to go with me. I don't really like to go alone. Had one real scary experience in the desert. Is there a site that helps folks connect to other cachers in their area? I started caching when I bought my gps as a pedometer and there was info about the web site in the package.
