Hello
I am Dave, and I 've been lurking on the forums for several months now. I began geocaching late last year after coming across the terminology on a television show. I thought it sounded like a fun thing to do, and sure enough it has been! I have been caching solo for the past few months and having only a minor amount of success. It was discouraging to go out searching for a 1/1 and come back empty handed. My first few finds were guardrail and lampost and I started to think that was all there was out there in my area. One day, lo and behold I came across my first ammo can! I attended my first event in January with the PAGA and met some very nice people. I brought my wife along Jen (Ladywolfe) to the next event I went to (Mardi Gras) and now she seems as enthused about caching as I do! We are taking a trip next weekend to work on the AGT caches (which will be pretty challenging for two newbies I am sure). We also are going to Geowoodstock.
I am also interested in stargazing, ufology, and the like. Nice meeting you all. I really enjoy the community.
