    Would This Work

    in General geocaching topics

    Okay, I understand now. It's Thursday. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. So, just for fun, let's say we wanted to do a Christmas ornament cache, set it up now, work it all thru the holidays and maybe change the theme after Christmas?

    Caches are required to be out for at least three months. You need to think long term. You can give it an initial theme and then change it to a regular cache. That would be fine. Just make sure the location will work for a long term cache and you can go for it. I see this done frequently around Halloween -- make it a fun theme cache and then change it to a regular "trade anything" type cache.

    I'm not sure what that means? Out three months? Before what? Remember, newbie here.

    I'm sure I could figure it out. I'm not an English teacher, but I would think that an English teacher would assist you, instead of belittling you. After all, teachers are supposed to teach. PM me if you want. I will help you with your posts and cache pages.

    Take I can see Lincoln, This was a Virtual that would show my kids something of importance. It is now relagated to a waymark and equal to a McDonalds down the street. I hope this doesn't last and virts, webcams, and earthcaches make a quick come back with a truly better way to handle them. I am disappointed that this was the big solution for them.

     

    That's our virtual! So cool that you used our virtual as an example. We also had the Who Am I virtual, but they decided to archive it on me.

    Finding Caches Near A Location

    in How do I...?

    WOW! Earth Google rocks! I found the park, I found the location of our campsite. I found my old hometown. I found my inlaws area! It's just a shame it doesn't let you zoom in tighter.

     

    Oh, and I set up a pocket query using the co-ords from Earth Google. I love this hobby! So many new and neat toys to play with!

    Finding Caches Near A Location

    in How do I...?

    Rdut and I are going to Shawnee State Park in October. I have found the zip code for the park, but obviously, the zip code is also for the area around the park. My question is:

     

    Is there a way to pinpoint the area that you want to find caches? I would love to be able to search on "Shawnee State Park" and get all the caches that are listed for that area.

    Caching With The Furkids

    in General geocaching topics

    Wow! Didn't think about that with the retractibles. Okay, no retractibles for my two evil furkids. I might look at getting longer leashes though. 6' seems kind of short when hiking/bushwhacking with these two monsters. I'm glad you found your dog. That had to have been a horrible time until she found you.

    Caching With The Furkids

    :rolleyes: How many of you take your furkids (dogs) caching with you? What do you do in advance for this activity? How do they do with the caching? We have two corgis that I would like to take caching with us, but I don't know if they will need any special equipment. They are both UTD on shots, flea and heartworm prevention. They are both in decent shape. I would pack a doggie first aid kit for them and water. And, of course, they would be on leashes. Which, brings up another question. What type of leash do you folks use? I have the standard 6' leash, and then 2 retractible leashes for them.
