One of the pleasures I have geocaching is writing creative logs. I figure after some one goes to all the trouble of setting one, they don't want just a TFTC. One of my favorite logs was for a cache called "Don't log this cache" and the description spoke of how the CO wasn't addicted to setting caches, he could stop anytime he wanted. So I logged:
"I woke up under a pine tree, I reached out my hand shaking for my GPSr (an iPhone.) Oh, no, where am, where's the cache? I got to my knees and started retching, then puking out longitudes and latitudes on the pine needles. I reached for my Gpsr; just one more cache; I need just one more; then I'll stop.; I swear.
The batteries were dead, drained AGAIN! I wiped the coords from my face and looked at my trembling hand with flakes of cheap camo paint. Another Taxman cache, my foggy brain thought. Must be a dang micro in a pine tree, how I hate doing them, but can't help myself.
THEN, I spotted IT but on the other side of the fence, Climb it, I must.
Crash, who needs a GPSr , I have geosense and soon was opening yet another cache to sign.
I looked at the names, there was mine 12/21/10 stretchwell. Today's date. OMG, I must have blacked out (again). I NEED HELP!. I've hit bottom.
My name is Stretchwell, I'm a Geocacher
Step 1: Admit you are powerless over the cache
GpsR, help me to accept the caches I can find, and DNF the ones I can't and give me the wisdom to know the difference"
For a particularly evil cache by a man/woman team I wrote:
"So, I sure this cache will get plenty of praise like: "fine craftsmanship" "excellent camo" "skillful hide" "inventive"
Let me tell you my view: EVIL
Yes, these CO's definitely fit somewhere on this list:
1. deformed and attend summer camp across the lake.
2. won't take off halloween mask.
3. keeps attaching knives to his gloves.
4. can invade other peoples dreams.
5. are a computer program designed to hunt down non-conformists.
6. likes anything written by Ann Rand.
7. likes anything written by Dan Brown.
8. a small doll with red hair and his bride (my #1 guess).
9. they are death incarnate and has a plan that others sometimes interfere with.
10.an ancient monsters that feeds every 23 years and whistles old songs.
Cache was exactly what I was looking for but..............well.....looking in book of excuses............"
