  1. I had to add to this topic. Last summer I was hitting many covered bridge caches in Parke County. I started off the morning with a quick I.S.Q. and went for my first covered bridge. Mind you this is out in the country where no cell phone works, the roads are gravel and the nearest farm houses are a mile apart. Well as I approached the cache I pulled my truck off the side of the road as usual and turned off the truck. I reached down for a trade item and my GPS when things got exciting... I had no clue that when I parked my truck, both tires in the tall grass were right next to a very deep ditch that was real sandy. First the front tire caved in then a few seconds later the rear tire dropped in. Still in shock from the moment I started the truck and punched the 4-wheel drive button. When I looked over and saw grass sticking through the open passenger window I knew that was not going to work. After extracting myself from the truck, I found my truck lying gently on the side with the left side wheels in the air. Well not to bore everyone too much more, I guessed right and walked to the right farm house and called a tow truck. As I waited for it, I did find the cache. I guess the funniest part was when the tow truck driver showed up I had to explain how it happened and why. Then, in the middle of no where mind you, when the crowd formed from neighbouring farms to watch the extraction, I had to explain 5 more times. I still found 10 more caches that day. RSFish1 PS-The truck survived without a scratch on the paint or a single dent. Bad news was that 4 months later I had to replace some bent suspension parts.
  2. I was wondering what program anyone is using with their Palm Treo 700W for paperless caching. I have only found one program in a quick search. It was about $40 which is reasonable. But I thought I would post here and see what others are using. Thanks, RSFish1
  3. I got my 60CSX last week and I absolutely love it. The time that it takes to get great satelite hookup is incredible. My friend and co-worker 4damfam has the 60CS and it is much faster then it. His accuracy seems to show 7-8 feet when mine shows 10 feet. But other then that, I think he wants an upgrade already! RSFish1 Avon
