If that's the way you want to play the game, then play it your way. Personally, I could care less how people find caches I hide just as long as they remain findable .
Just don't tell anybody.
Cool.
By the way, have you seen my latest? A decomissioned public pay phone weighing close to 50 pounds!

Does anyone know of any caches like this in New York state? They're awesome and seem like great caches but Texas is nowheres near New York! Would it be possible, perhaps, to have Texas do a tour to New York so I can seek this cache?
That's about all. You stamp your book with the stamp in the cache and stamp the cache's book with your stamp.
Doesn't that sound exciting?!?!
I've never tried it though...
If you ordered it online (through the website) and paid with PayPal or a credit card, it is pretty quick.
If you paid by check or money order, the time it takes for it to be processed varies.
I think that it would be a neat improvement if one could add benchmarks to ones watch list in the same manner as travel bugs and geocaches. Just to see if someone finds it before you do, marks it missing, etc.
