Altered State

Thanks Jeeplife! Good luck in all your new endeavors.

Congrats on your new move! LOG IT 2 - Jackson Bottom Hillsboro, OR I'm more than happy to adopt this cache as I drive by it on my way to work every day.

Hi! I have four brand new travel bugs I'd be willing to part with for ten bucks plus shipping. Please email me at BAnnHoltz@hotmail.com if you're interested.

...when you forget your flashlight you contemplate driving your little japanese non 4x4 four door vehicle into the brush to shine the headlights in 'that spot! It's just gotta be there!' ...when you ask your kids (ages 4 and 6) 'Hey kids, wanna go to a new park today?' and they reply, 'Aww mom, not ANOTHER geocache!' ...when you start receiving gifts of ammo cans and rechargable batteries!

Defnitely meets the criteria. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=1670

I am also a stay at home mom with two kids. It's great fun to hear my four year old son say, "Mommy, can I look at the GPS to see how close we are to the cache?" and when I've gone on a walk with a girlfriend he'll say, "Did you find the cache?" Going to the park has a completely different meaning for my kids! I'd be happy to help in any way that I can. (I'm on the west side of Portland..) Enjoy!

I just got a reply from them today..but they have yet to quote me a price..

While I definitely would fall under the "haven't been around as long as most of the people posting to these forums" category, I'd be more than happy to get a cache or two if you're interested. My email is BAnnHoltz.

While out geocaching yesterday, I happened upon a witness post that says:"Contact the District Engineer of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers". After a bit of digging, I was unable to locate the mark. I did however take a picture and mark it. Any idea how I can find out more about this? I went to their website, yet had no luck. Thanks!

If you have a used Venture or Legend that is still in reasonably good condition and want to sell it, please email me at BAnnHoltz@hotmail.com. I have PayPal, and am really anxious to upgrade from the little yellow ETrex I am using now! Thanks!

Thanks Nurse Dave for doing so much research on this. I am definitely interested if you still need homes for any remaining coins!

I guess I must have left before the police arrived. Glad my instincts are still working well! Thanks Fractal for the great idea. It was a beautiful night.

..looking for: The green glow stick E.T. a couple of caches Nude hot tubbing Meteor showers And some fellow cachers! Not necessarily in that order.

I also have two FRS radios to contribute to the cause! I've been lurking here for a while - looking forward to meeting you all!! [This message was edited by Altered State on August 06, 2002 at 04:39 PM.]

After having hunted this cache yesterday, I think you should take the skateboard back to the cul-de-sac and leave it at the trailhead. When I was there, there were several kids riding skateboards and bikes. My bet is that there is a very unhappy kid and some equally unhappy parents now that that skateboard is missing. I realize the kid was irresponsible in leaving it, but my bet is he came back to look for it and it was gone. Being a parent of nearly skateboard aged kids, I would be really pissed that my investment (they aren't cheap no matter how much money you have) just disappeared. Just something to think about.

While I haven't racked up the cache numbers, count me in for this event!
