Have a wonderful time with Frederick. And get him out there on the caching trail right away! I'm not going to comment on the four hour labor, since mine were 10 hours and 19 hours! Best wishes to you all!

I pulled up behind a silver Honda with a purple Geo-Decal earlier this week on Mill Plain in Vancouver. What a surprise to find another geocacher while NOT seeking a cache! Love the decal - gotta get one for my Jeep! The girls and I want purple, of course. fractal, bring some over to Clark County... Janet

Wow! What a lot of great suggestions in just one day! I'm going to look into the packs mentioned and some of the alternatives, too. Some of these ideas might help with the 4-year old sister as well!

The youngest cacher on our team is 16 months old. Though she can walk amazing distances without tiring, her internal GPS usually leads her in the opposite direction from the rest of us! So, Mom and Dad end up hiking at least twice as far as necessary. I'm looking into backpacks to carry her in, but want to find something comfortable and practical that will last (she's tall for her age). Does anyone have a backpack recommendation? Or maybe a better idea? Thanks! -Tired Mom
