  1. I notice that you are a chef. :)

    There is of course a lot of food and food-related products in and near Seattle's iconic Pike Market. If you are looking for good and/or rare spices, check these people out. I have no relationship with them other than having stopped in there a few times.

  2. One of the things which I did not think about until it became an issue for me was this: some European countries use alphabets that my GPS could not handle. For example, if someone told me to direct my GPS to an address on Burgenstraße , I could not input that. And in my case, using a substitute like Burgenstrasse did not work.

     

    Make sure you are prepared for this ahead of time.

     

    Have a great trip!

  3. [This is being posted by a Groundspeak Lackey. We do not normally post promotional items - we are making an exception because we are so thrilled that a geocacher won!]

     

    We are very pleased to learn that a geocacher won the 1st of 3 Dodge Journeys that are being given away:

    Congratulations to MathProfessor and his son!

     

    Some of you may have already seen this news yesterday on Twitter. There's something about geocachers that know how to search the maps, put the clues together and find the treasures out there. They found their SUV in Nevada.

     

    The 2nd of the vehicles has already been found (Oklahoma). The clues for the 3rd of the vehicles will be released tomorrow. We know only that it will be somewhere in the eastern part of the US.

     

    http://www.youtube.com/Dodge Other updates will be on Facebook and Twitter.

     

    For those of you forum readers who are here right now, I am pleased to present you with two advance clues provided just to us geocachers by the contest organizers. Maybe another geocacher will win? Maybe it will be you!

     

    1st advance clue:

    We're looking for photos that best capture the scenic, natural, and historic wonders and/or showcase the amazing recreational experiences in America's Federal Recreation Lands. All photographs must be taken in one of the Federal Recreation Lands between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2011.

     

    The Federal Recreation Lands are managed by: National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, Bureau of Reclamation, and U.S. Forest Service.

     

    Groundspeak is not at all involved in the contest. Please ask any questions at and upload submissions to the website above.

     

    I'm just passing the word along because I know a lot of us here enjoy time in these various Federal Recreation Lands.

    :)
