WHO? Never heard of him...

ATLANTIS....in the Hamptons, Long Island, New York GCQGMQ

I have done a few at night. Didn't always find them. I have a hard enough time finding some in the daylight. If people see you creeping around parks or in the woods they think your up to no good and the police will be called...

I went to a cache here on Long Island that was in a busy park and about 20 feet up in a tree. It was not an easy tree to climb and there was no way I was going to compromise the cache in front of tons of muggles on a warm Spring day. I went back again in the late Fall in the middle of the week. Hardly any muggles around this time but I still could not get up the tree. I found a long broken tree branch and a 6 foot metal fence post and shoved the branh into the end of the pole. After several attempts I was able to unhook the cache from its nail high up in the tree. After logging in, getting it back to the exact spot was impossible but I did manage to get it attached a couple feet away which was good enough.....Sometimes ya just have to improvise!

Emily's Spooky Kid's Cache 2- http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...4a-022edbb93fbb This is on Long Island, New York and has made a couple people jump! Here are logs from it: May 29 by Troll girl (67 found) Troll girl let out a scream...and jumped a mile high!!! Loved this one!!! Took a geocaching pin and left a troll(of course) July 23 by Waterspyder (686 found) Great location and neat little cemetary but the ghost near the cache spooked me and I jumped about five feet. I probably would have had a heart attack if he came at me like that at night. The cache was not hidden when I found it so I placed it where it should have been. Thanks for the fun.

Found what looked like a bloody t shirt next to where the cache used to be. A bunch of broken beer bottles there now. Maybe someone got whacked???

I have a solar powered lawn light that I would like to somehow incorpoate into a cache. Any ideas??? It uses 1 battery and will stay lit maybe 3 hours after the sun goes down. I guess if only night cachers searched for it I would have to tell them the light can only be seen from about sundown and 3 hours beyond sundown... Not sure how often it would need a battery change either but I think they last quite a while..............Maybe I can hang the light in a tree? Maybe have the cache attached to it or in a hole in the tree? Or make it a multi with coordinates attached to the light? Or say the actual cache is so many feet away in a certain direction? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.............what to do..........

Here is one I just hid: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...4a-022edbb93fbb

How about give Letterboxing a shot. No GPS needed! http://www.letterboxing.org

WHAT other site? The NAV one???? DO TELL!!!!!

I came across a cache that was on a beach and most of it was under the sand except for the lid. They let that one slide with no problem. I suppose it was not actually totally buried though and out of sight.........

I think it sounds awesome and would like to see the photos!

I have a small velcro thingy called a BENTO BOX that is attached right behind my mountain bike handlebar stem. It has a mesh top which can close with velcro too if you start going over bumps. It is meant for a couple power bars or Power Gel when doing Triathlons but it is the perfect size for my ETREX. http://www.trisports.com/benbakis.html

Drives me crazy. My bug moved once quickly and then someone found it with friends from out of state. The friends took it from New York to Missouri supposedly with the intention of hiding it in a new geocache, but it has not resurfaced in months. I emailed the woman finder twice with no replies. I suppose some people keep them as souvineers????? It's just not right! I may try the smashed pennies instead which are trackable. Cheaper too!
