If you are going to do “DO IT” in style

Googlism for: jogps jogps is evil jogps is currently at 999 caches found jogps is a freind of mine and he came over one day and showed me his gps and told me about geocaching I am still evil, have a few more finds, and will talk to you about geocaching till you beg me to stop……………………JOE

I tried using one for brass and bronze markers but never got it to work, they say it will, but not for me, but then again a lot of things don‘t work for me…………JOE

I don‘t am I a bad person, Heee Heee……………JOE

I thought about the power drain and using a power booster ( 50 bucks) for jump starting cars with plugging into its power port and when not using the mini light bar plug the booster into the power port of the element so it may recharge itself. The mini light bar is also magnetic, pops off and on When my wife saw she shook her head and went back into the house (grin) Did I also say I use the same setup for caching, and still no questions…………………JOE

To answer 9key’s question: “Why did many of the attendees log the event as a find multiple times? Some logged 5 times” This was a very low keyed event, Show Me The Cache brought four micro’s and gave them to four different cachers and we announced that there were out ( and I think this is where the phrase “ Is That A Cache In Your Pocket Or Are You Glad To See Me” came from ) there hiding and if you found them and signed the log book it was a smiley face for them and they could log the page multiple times , at the time it was OK, things may have changed since then Quote from Jeremy Irish: “I couldn't give two hoots if someone wants to log an event cache twice. It's their find count and there is no competition here. So if you find a cache at an event, knock yourself out.” It was a great ice breaker between goecacher’s to meet others, lets face if a stranger walked up to you and said is that a cache in you pocket or are you glad to see me. It worked. If the TPTB will allow it again then, we will do it again………………..JOE

It is truly an ugly truck but big folks can fit with no problem. and yes I love it Sorry did not mean for this to turn into a JoGPS thread

The Second Annual Geo-Woodstock will be in Nashville TN this year, the land of plenty ( caches ) on Sat. July the 3rd at Edwin Warner Park the second park in the US to hide there own caches. Cache page will be up in a few days Look For It…………………..JOE

The whole local group that I met at the event has done a fanatics job putting this club all together , any thing I can do from here give me a yell, but it looks like ya got it going ON……JOE

Its magnet and I had them print the back ground color the same as the truck so from fifty feet away its looks like it belongs there………..JOE

Yep, that’s a light bar, Add on’s $200.00 Fun Hunting Benchmarks “ PRICELESS “ Went to two different ( small ) local airports in the last three weeks and they let me drive out on the taxiways to find the marks with the lights on that was Toooooooooooooo Cool………JOE

We dress our truck up a little for a lot less questions……………. JOE

This little BOX works well for caching and benchmark hunting and arrrrrrrrrrrr we don't get asked a lot of questions................JOE

Cache machines and group hunts are way toooooooooooo cool you are out there running around with new and old friends alike and having a blast, sure the numbers are good to but for me it’s the enjoyment of playing with your peers and seeing how they hunt caches. SE7EN it looks like you need to go on a good hunt, from your stats Heeeeeee Heeeeeee ………………….. JOE

I try to place all my caches where they can be checked on either on the way to work or home, if needed. There are some that are not that way , we will replace a wet log book or whatever within 10 days. The last nine days has been the strangest yet I have had eight caches come up missing, and two were members only and most of my caches are not drive by’s and are placed in out of the way areas, and they were all located in the Franklin TN area Go figure………………..JOE

Thanks "BUDDY" thats way toooooooooooo cool..............JOE

Jeff do you have a link to the page it sounds cool....................JOE

Great job on those two marks, I agree, I do find the newer ones and the drive by’ but it’s the old one that make it all worthwhile and sooooooooooooooo cool……………JOE

RK , I agree with your last post , did I say that…………….JOE

I gave myself two great Christmas presents this year , have been saving the two oldest benchmarks near where I live to do over the holidays this one on Christmas day http://www.geocaching.com/mark/details.asp?PID=FD1472 And this one today http://www.geocaching.com/mark/details.asp?PID=fd1475 The old cemetery was way toooooooo cool, never let be said the Benchmark hunters do go to great out of the way places to……………..JOE

Well BassoonPilot in the benchmark forums there are not a lot of cheap shots like yours over here there is a lot more discussions about the topic and helping out than wanting to knock someone around. There is also not a lot of bickering between players that you seem to thrive on, so no more post from me on this subject as to keep from stirring the pot .………………JOE

RK has not found any benchmarks either but he was nice about it…………JOE

Don’t pay any attention to them they are both sour grapes and like to jump on newbe posters. Before you give up try one more CT1167 placed in 1908, 95 years ago and no one has found, these are the most rewarding for me. I know sometime the drive by’s will wear you down , but it the ones like this that make it all worthwhile and the sport of benchmark hunting fun. Come on now try one more, who knows it may be there waiting on you…………JOE

This this is way toooooooo cool, and was hoping it would get going, as of now I do not use a palm for benchmarks but would like to know how with benchmarks. I am not that talented. If everyone could list how they do it here step by step and the programs so maybe and old fart like me could do it. like with whats is all out there to do it with Please step by step Thanks……………….JOE

This a no brainer for me Briansnat was a poster when I first started looking at the forums two years ago as a loud month poster with more post than finds and always commented on everything, and really hated the guy. ( told myself I would think of a reason later ) Don’t know what happen either he mellowed or I did but now enjoy reading and thinking about all of his post. ( now they seem to make sense ) Yep its Briansnat for me and never thought I would write this……………………JOE
