  1. Paid EMS and HAM radio operator here, not in the forums much though...
  2. For me, Australia, and Antarctica! But really, I would be happy to get out and do a lot of international caches, like maybe everyone that one of my trackables has been to!
  3. McToys? Usually while at a flea market I try to pick up old ones. And at garage sales. They are always better quality then new ones. Other wise I stay away from them
  4. We had been finishing up a multi, and the final was behind a fire department. I saw it in the bushes, and pointed it out to my wife, who went in for. She pulls it out onto the sidewalk, next to the member entrance for the fire department. As she sits there, opening up this .50 cal ammo can, a fire fighter comes out the door, asks if we need help, and see her sitting there struggling with the can. I quickly explained it to him, his Lt, the Captain, and then the Chief what geocaching was. Now I work closely with them and they remind me of this moment occasionally!
  5. We usually try to use dollar store items for our swag. Or rubber ducks. We even started a series(3 so far) that revolves around dollar stores, called Swag Store. We plan on doing as many as we can.
  6. I try to be stealthy, I have knelt down to tie my shoe countless times. Once I even "fell" in front of some people so I could look underneath a bench(I found it!) I once was looking around a Handicap Parking sign, and the old lady across the street came over and asked me what I was doing. I simply explained I work for a surveyor who has a contract with a group supporting disabled Americans, and that I am marking the location of every Handicap spot in the area. Completely off the top of my head, and she went for it hook line and sinker. My wife is not to stealthy, she figures that I can just explain it to them and we will be fine. This is the case so far, but I am worried.
  7. Wow. A mouthful. My perception that caching has gotten less friendly may not be wishful thinking, after all. I still do repairs on caches when I can and especially when I like the cache's location. I think of good caches as belonging to the community. I agree that the GC community has gotten a lot less friendly recently. But on the current subject, we carry some logs, and that is it. If it does need anything more then a new log page, it gets a NM guaranteed, and even if we put in a new page, it still gets the NM.
