Hitchhiker Question
Pat in Louisiana replied to Pat in Louisiana's topic in General geocaching topics
It's not a travel bug. No tag just the name. Any other suggestions? -
I picked up a Hitchhiker and dropped it off someplace else. The tag said it was by LZ33. If this is a Geocacher's ID how can I search for him or her and e:mail that I moved their HH.

Does anyone know anything about the DeLorme Earthmate? We travel a fair amount and the Wife always brings her laptop. Is it worth the money or should I just stick with my Legend? Pat in Louisiana I never get lost. I simply investigate alternate destinations.

Maybe that's why they call it a "Park"!
Pat in Louisiana replied to Zuckerruebensirup's topic in General geocaching topics
When I tried my hand at outside sales (I hated it) there would be many times where I had up to an hour between appointments and I would go park by the lake or a city park and listen to the radio, read something or just watch for the "fine lady joggers" Pat in Louisiana I never get lost.

So what have you used your GPS for?
Pat in Louisiana replied to lostinjersey's topic in General geocaching topics
I have been useing mine to check yardage on the golf course but I also have been useing the Record Track feature. It's funny, when i have a good round it's only a 5.5 mile walk. when I have a bad round it's more like 6.5 miles. Wonder why Pat in Louisiana I never get lost. I simply investigate alternate destinations. -

Pat in Louisiana replied to lostinjersey's topic in General geocaching topics
When I first got my old Eagle Explorer it was mainly for hunting. I used it to map all the property lines, deer stands, trails, creeks and so forth. Then I used AutoCAD to draw the maps and print out 36” x 48” maps. We have one mounted on a steel sheet and use magnets to mark where we will be hunting at that time. My most recent GPS use is to set waypoints at the center of each green on our country club’s golf course. I just hit “Go To” and I always have the correct yardage, (Thanks to the latest Garmin update for my Legend that includes yardage as a unit of measure.) I also use it almost every night when I take our dog for a walk to see when we reach a half way point of the distance I want to go and we turn around and head home. We try not to go the same way every time. Anyway it’s a lot of fun and you can come up with hundreds of ways to use your GPS. PS: I also use it to get in trouble with the Wife She says I watch it more than the road. Pat in Louisiana I never get lost. I simply investigate alternate destinations.

I have a Cache in a fairly remote area of Mississippi on our hunting lease. It has had few visitors. The last two were April 5 and May 5. At what point do you figure anyone who is going to find it has found it and it's time to archive it? Pat in Louisiana I never get lost. I simply investigate alternate destinations.
