Agreed. Our family doesn't drink alcohol. My husband spends much of his time catching drunk drivers and taking them to jail. He also spends a lot of time teaching other law enforcement officers to do the same. I take my kids caching with me all the time. If we all found a cache with beer stickers or keychains, I wouldn't be horrified or even offended. I'd show them, and say something simple that a 3 year old can understand. "Hey this is beer. Beer is gross and it makes people act stupid. Don't drink beer." The end of teaching opportunity... now let's sign the log book!

Ok so pamphlets are out but some think 'neat trade item' religious related stuff is ok. So how about this: Obviously Religious? Yes. Paper? Yes. Straight-up evangelizing? Well...it is a historical literary work, which is an interesting read even if you don't believe it's God Breathed... Ok, I have to admit... I think the camo and military tie in makes it kind of unique and therefore cool... Tell me what do you all think? Edit to add this P.S. I'm obviously a Christian cacher... but I'd take a Koran, or other philisophical or religious book if it were cool and in good condition even if it were obviously for something I disagreed with ... just because I think it's interesting learning what others believe.

Another temporary option would have been to click the "[Click to temporarily disable]" link at the top of your cache description page. And you could have always clicked the "Archive This Cache" button on the upper right hand part of your cache description page.

There are several options which could have been used to avoid this problem: When creating your cache page, make sure you keep the "Yes, this cache is currently active." box UNCHECKED until you're sure the cache is hidden appropriately and it is ready to be approved.

I believe approvers don't visit the actual cache site before approving a cache. They go by the description you submit.

I thought I heard something go bump in the night.

Oh... man I live in Missouri and would really like to get my hands on that geocoin. Trade you a little yellow jeep TB. Ok if people start to flame me I was just kidding... And if not... I'll send you my PO Box address.

Ahhhhh! I've got to research all those long hike caches as soon as possible... and all the places I was thinking of placing a cache... man I gotta go!

Our approver is awesome too. Very quick.

I wear old worn out sneakers with not nearly enough traction, and too hot, worn out cargo pants that were probably meant to be kinda dressy.... I NEED new pants and shoes. But I'm a penny pincher. I want lightweight cargo pants and some light hiking shoes that are more like sneakers than boots but with good traction. I've got 100 bucks... any suggestions?

Yeh... I must admit I had to google the word dogging... and I learned more than I ever needed to know about certain popular activities in the UK.

My First and Last Name: is a survivor and volunteer with the clothesline project and survivor connections is rescued from trunk after being kidnapped and creatively signaling Gentlewhisper: "Sorry, Google doesn't know enough about gentlewhisper yet." Whis is kind of surprising since a search at Google.com brings up lots of stuff.

A log in the Do Not Find This cache... I told my husband if he took me geocaching with the kids on our anniversary I'd get a babysitter for a week later so we could go out on a date.... I made him take me caching on that day too though.

I ususally take a 3 year old and a 2 year old with me when I go caching... that makes even a flat well mowed field an adventure. I can't drag them up too many hills back and forth in the woods. I do use maps to find the easiest trail to the cache... so just caching together is fun enough, we don't need broken limbs, whiney babies or heat stroke to go with it.

Hey, put my name in, I wouldn't turn down a free book.

When you all say re-registering are you talking about opening another account? Or just changing your e-mail in your profile?

I entered the photo. But not the essay.

In Swiss Army knife. Open the files you want to send to your GPSr. Connect the GPSr to your computer with the cable. Then click on the the lightning bolt icon to send them. EasyGPS seems easier to learn how to use.

Not sure if anything is wrong with the unit. But if you press the bottom button on the left side of the Legend [has a magnifying glass icon under it] then that will bring up the find screen. That seems a lot easier to me.

Oh I love this idea. I have a ton of stuff in my garage I could drop off at a cache like this...

I believe you need to be a premium member. edit for spelling.

Shocking!

My three year old and I were without a car the other day... and he REALLY NEEDED to go geocaching. We wrapped a coffee can with camo duct tape. His little sister helped him fill it with toys and a log book. Then he hid it in the backyard. His dad took him on a backyard night caching adventure the next day. We insisted that Dad sign the log when he found it.

I was thinking of this very poem! OH... WAIT... Now I know you're all reading my mind... where's the Reynolds Wrap when you need it? "When I was going up the stairs, I met a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today, I wish, I wish he'd go away."

I've got one cache hidden. It's a 12 ounce container with a round lid. I printed an abbreviated stash note using a circle lable template, laminated it and glued it in the lid. I also placed stickers with important info all around the top inside of the container so they couldn't possibly be missed.... This said, my first container went MIA anyway.
