[I am LOVING the new features!]

I really hope someone revisits the email option on the friends list. The number of emails this would generate in my inbox would be intolerable. I hope the site developer makes this an option that can be enabled/disabled - preferably for each friend.

[Having To Explain Geocaching To Local Police]

I've had a couple of times where the area's finest check up on what I was doing, and a couple of times where a neighbor was interested in what I was doing. I guess that's not to unusual after over 900 finds. I guess my favorite story is below from GCNT1M... It's not me, but one of my friends from the DFW area... I'm reposting his log for you to enjoy. Now what you have to understand about this post is that this cacher is a dog (Wee Wiley, who goes along with his owner Hikeaday - get it? )

 

This really shouldn't be an exciting cache, but for us it was. Someone reported seeing a man carrying a dog and a handgun across Stanford. We get pulled over, while walking down Sanford, after leaving the cache. Sirens, flashing lights, policeman saying keep your hands where I can see them, and all that stuff you see on TV. Hikeaday gets searched and questioned about where is the gun and what are we doing here? Stuff about walking in the park, GPS receivers and Geocaching go right over the policemans head. Anyway after checking Hikeadays ID and calling in for wants and warrants the cop lets us go. We usually end our comments with something like thanks for the cache and the adventure. Well in this case, we really-really mean it. Left a clone of LT. Col Geo Dee to watch over the cache and report on the progress of the stadium.
