  1. Yes, it is something that all can enjoy and seems to spur the economy at the same time. You can't have a household with just one GPS. However, I will be the one who takes posession of the new gps in this house. hahahahaha
  2. Being new to this I was all excited about mixing my love of scuba with my new found passion of geocaching. There is an underwater marker in honor / memory of the first person to recreationally dive the lake I live at. I wanted to set this up as a virtual and got positive feedback from one person when I e-mailed them here to see if I should expend the time and energy of creating this. After spending the better part of the day checking and rechecking coordinates, preparing the info on the cache, etc. . . It was shot down when I officially submitted it. Yeah, the venting is getting some steam out and nothing more, but it's frustrating to get positive feed back about an idea and then a "I am sorry but you will have to ask nate to approve it for you I will not" as a reply when asking what needs to change. Then I considered the placement of some other caches that are top side in the national forest that surrounds this site. According to the regional director of the forest service, there is to be nothing of the likeness of a geocache on federal property, so what's a person to do? Maybe I'll just put one nest to the mailbox in my front yard, wait, technically that is a right of way for the road. Hmmm I wonder if I can get approval from the state to place a cache there? Venting about a Virtual
  3. I'm in the same boat but feel lucky to have found 5 / 8 of the caches I've searched for. I am using a garmin emap and have found the unit is showing me between 20' - 40' from the location when in reality I am right over top of it. I am considering a different GPS unit as I seem to have a horrible time keeping a signal locked in while in cover that I'd consider minimal. Although I'm a newby too, I started searching out some virtuals that let me be in the open to get used to how my equipment functions.
  4. The moment of truth for my avatar. Will it be there?
