I have 3 trackables I'm taking and dropping off at a nice location in a few days. In the mean time, they're visiting all the caches I hit before the big trip. If the owners wish otherwise, all it takes is an e-mail.

Wood will outlast you if set up properly.

Trust me, there's more things more worthy out there to get mad about. so they claimed a FTF and didnt sign the log? no big deal. Who's going to know? I can say I have 50 FTF (I only have one) and who will that affect? no one's going to go back and check. what I'm saying is if you play the FTF game (and there's nothing wrong with that) and you found a empty log after they claimed to find it, go ahead and and claim FTF. in this game, the one that it affects is YOU. If you know your FTF, claim it. remember were really playing a game with no rules how we play, just like the power trails with the droped containers when they cant find one or they split and find every other one and claim a find on all of them. They can play how they want, I'll play how I want, (but I do form a opinion of them).
If I see a new cache that already has a FTF before I leave work, I don't bother with it unless I happen to pass by it within a mile or three. If it is still blank, however, I'll swing by. So yes, fake logs do mess with some of us.

Tool cases and truck boxes have seals and will keep out water from rain.

Finding one that a lot of others dnf'ed. Happy thoughts!
-
I'd demand proof of the find or erase the log. Death to cheaters!

I've never ever read a blog.

I have two kids Jacob, 10 years old and Alexandra, 9 years old. They are great at crawling though the really thick vines and thorns to get those pesky woodsy hides. I just learned welding and made me a four foot travel bug (eater). It is a big metal frog I plan on taking with us and take pictures of it at all the caches we find (in the general vicinity). For Fathers Day, my kids prepped the frog for painting and helped mom paint it.
Each kid brings a small swag bag to swap with. They enjoy the time out with me and I love any time I spend with them. Of course, not having the wife with us is a bonus too....did I just say that?
Don't forget to post a picture of your frog on here for us.
As for the comment... well it's said there is a first time for everything... and a LAST!

Just waiting for the tag I ordered from here to arrive and it'll be done and pictures posted. Of course last I checked, it said 'order processing'.

Only if you want people to be electrocuted.
I found one in the last 2 weeks that was that close to the wires.
-
I wouldn't be too worried about anybody growing anything in a Home depot bucket. That would most likely be a kid or a really desperate loser.
-
If it's on your own property it should be ok.
Nope. Wrong answer. I wanted to do this until it was revealed to me, if they (us) find a buried container in one place, they'll start digging at the 1st one they can't find on someone elses property. I know, that I check fence post caps when I'm in a cemetary because I've found quite a few this way.
-
No digging allowed. Of course, that hasn't stopped a lot of people from doing it.

In Michigan all cemetaries have caches in them. Get used to it. I'd rather have kids playing above my dead body then people mourning me.

It's a common background we share. No matter our differences, we share something outside of caching. It's also better then starting 100 different threads on the same subject.

So, I go to your cache every day for a year and attempt to find it but don't, you want 1 dnf? Or do you want 365 DNF's and the reasoning why I couldn't find it? Communication is a 2 way street.

What is a decon container?
It is a little green/black/blue container the military uses to hold wipes for removing chemical contaimination from their skin and equipment. DeCONtamination
-
You do know that you can go to the government auctions and buy pallets of empty cans yourselves, right? They're pretty cheap. All you got to do is set up an account and focus in on a site near a major military installation. Don't foget National Guard Camps too. They sell their stuff too. Scrap metal, or so they assume.
-
I carry a few pens, a pencil and a bunch of those small pencils with no eraser attached. If the cache don't have one, it gets one.
If I find myself without a pencil, I take a piece of broken glass, cant it like a mirror and reflect the light, increase the heat like a magnifying glass and lazer my initials and date into the cache log or onto the cache itself (joking).

You said the 'p' word! You are so going to Heck!
Calvin showing his rear end should be offensive but hey, whatever. -
If I chicken out because of too many muggles, it's a dnf. A dnf seems pretty straight forward to me. Did I find the cache and sign the log? Nope. DNF.
Did I get to the GZ and get my leg chewed off by an angry bear? DNF.
Tornado? DNF.
Didn't put the car in park and it rolled off a cliff and I forgot about caching for the moment? DNF.
But hey, everyone plays by their own rules. If they want to cheat, who am I to call them on it?
Cheating? Pffft.
That's why we play by our own rules.
-
Most of my finds have been over 25 miles away so a car is a must. I'm saving the near ones for when me and the kids get time off together to go.
Just remember with that car comes gas, other fluids, insurance and maintenance costs.
-
Okay, I confess, I just about killed myself going after my FTF (just about didn't stop at a stop sign and getting broadsided by a semi). Once I got it, the rush was over. Don't really care about getting any more.
If a cache is dedicated to one person, give them the co-ordinates before publishing. Problem solved.

Back off! I have a...pen.
