  1. Welcome to the life. My kids are now begging to get out and find treasure every weekend and when they finish their homework. This is the best motivator I've found to get them to finish stuff around the house. They actually have found geocaches when we weren't out geocaching.

  2. There are other views/maps on the individual cache web pages and exact co-ordinates posted. Use those to plot on a map. I've been not using a GPSr for 600-700 geocaches so far and haven't had a problem yet. Of course, I've had quite a few DNF's but that I blame on my eye sight and bad judgement.

  3. I was cleaning out my car the other day (big event) and came across my kid's caching bags. In my daughter's kit, I came across a TB. I questioned her on when she picked it up. She thought it was a toy and not a bug. So, that was about a month ago we did that event. Not all TB's that disappear are from evil people. Just an FYI.

  4. So, I take it to mean that you want big bugs at your house? Okay, will comply...

     

    There is a backstory on that fridge door.

     

    I passed it by for months just sitting on a turn signal island in the middle of the road...

     

    One night while heading to an event with my wife, I had an epiphany and said aloud that I should pick it up and make it a TB.

     

    My wife forbid me to do it so of course I did exactly that a few days later. :laughing:

     

    Roger that. I'm not too much into bugs but I can see a challenge in the making. I'll start sending out large bugs dedicated to you and making it to you will be their purpose in life. Are Metal scupltures ok? What size is the limit?

  5. Give them all a hand held compass to monitor while they walk .It gives them something to focus on and they think they're helping find the way. Young minds get easily distracted so you have to give them something to focus on. Maybe an inexpensive camera to take pictures with? You'll be suprised on some of the great quality pictures you get (and a few thousand bad ones) :lol: .

  6. A few weeks ago, I found a cache that was within sight of where a lady was shot and her car stolen for a couple of drug dealers. I mentioned a lot of police were in the area checking out suspisious behavior and my log was deleted for saying bad things about the area. Go figure... :blink:
