While my other half and I have been geocaching for just a few months, we have been caught in the act by various people in public places. The most memorable was while searching for a JeananJoe cache in Northern Arizona. They have some dozies, and this was no exception; one of their woodpecker series (see caches around Cottonwood and Camp Verde, AZ). After about 20 minutes of searching on a not-so-busy public road corner, a sheriff pulled up. He asked us what we were doing...very businesslike and I was glad we were on public property. He said he had questioned others who gave the same 'geocaching' answer (we were not about to make up a story to the law!) and finally left. The good thing is, we found the cache (quite a feat for new cachers, as JeananJoe are notorious for DNFs!) :-)
