You're In My Spot

These replies are outstanding, everyone! I seriously appreciate your insight and observations. I didn't realize when we started this how excitingly sly it could be, but I'm really looking forward to trying this in other jurisdictions when I travel (not soon, unfortunately, but oh well). In the meantime there seem to be several in my area that I can keep looking for, including those with muggle potential to be careful around. Another question I have though is with the acronyms I've seen others use. I figured out that FTFC means First To Find Cache, but what does TFTC, TFTH, TNLN, and SL mean?

Hi, guys. I'm new to geocaching. We (as a family) found our first cache yesterday, which was a lot of fun. But I've been reviewing the logs of various caches out of curiousity and it appears there are rules about stealth and secrecy that I wasn't aware of. Just how discrete are we supposed to be when we search for and find caches? Not a difficult thing for those caches off the beaten track, so to speak, but what about those that are in more populated areas? Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks! adelleg
