OMG I hope John hurries home soon..... John who? Start loading the FJ! We are so there! Do I really need to go to work! Mrs.K said she would go this week if someone wants to drive.... Can I go? Sounds like a ROAD TRIP to us!!! Anyone? The Splashes wondering if camping is permitted along the roads...we think the series could be done in less than 30 continuous hours of power caching...Could be fun...Denice is sorta willing to go this week if somone wants to drive....We are busy next weekend...can't wait to get out there...nothin wrong with a good numbers trail...we have cached in the area of the trail and really liked it...may need to train for this one... I think they're done submitting them now, and the final count is somewhere around 525!! I predict that a new 24 hour geocaching world record could be set along this series!

What? Nuts on cinnamon buns you say? Literally, backpedaling means pedaling a bicycle in reverse so that you travel backwards. In a figurative sense, it means that after you have said something you wish you hadn't said, you begin to deny that you said it, or claim that you didn't really mean what you said, or claim that the other person misunderstood you, etc., etc. Yes, there are indeed cinnamon rolls on the line now ... an order has been placed for a future date where my supporters will gather. I will revisit this matter with pictures of my achievement. If Mister Kwvers would like to issue me yet ANOTHER Certificate of Achievement following this occasion ... a cinnamon roll might find it's way into his future. In the meantime, I've been thinking about Jodi and how she makes these incredible cache trails for dear ol' Harmon. I have a number of cache containers here, and now I think I know just what to do with them. Jodi, you've inspired me! Cache #1 - Hush Your Mouth, AGAIN! Cache #2 - I can't do WHAT? Cache #3 - Are you SERIOUS? Cache #4 - Open mouth ... insert foot Cache #5 - YOU want a Cinnamon Roll? LOL! etc., etc ... Barrie aka: boysnbarrie Guilty as charged..No defense..The tongue is an unruly member..who can tame it? Time to pay the piper!

Barrie aka: boysnbarrie Barrie...I have an idea...lets go in my 4WD with YOU driving and place this wonderful cache series..... Mrs. K said that she wants to go with you..She is serious...

Yahooo! Those numbers are Flying high! Congrats to all ya'll!!! TC @5000!!!!

Proof positive ... Barrie in the Squeeze! That should settle this matter. By the way, Kwver, thanks for taking the heat off of me for a while. Harmon, I can't stop smiling! Once again, you've gone the extra mile to help me settle this matter. Thank you so much for watching my back, ol' buddy! I owe ya a PUD cake! Barrie aka: boysnbarrie Barrie, The thing is that I hate to see you spending time messing around at the Squeeze when your time can be better spent baking PUD cakes. A person of average intelligence can see that baking a PUD cake is far less likely to bang up a perfectly good schoolbus as opposed to squeezing it. ... the schoolbus that is. Comes down to this ... once you drive your 4WD rig through the Squeeze, what have y' got to show for it? I'll tell y' what you've got, just another picture of a 4WD vehicle in the Squeeze. Shoot, if y' want a picture of your 4WD vehicle in the Squeeze ... just let me know and I'll 'shop it for y'. Duh. Yeah-yeah, I know ... the fun is in the doing it with a gang of good friends. Either way, life is good. Harmon I greatly appreciate your sage wisdom, Harmon ... so much so, that I decided I needed to think this whole thing over a bit more. It is true that baking PUD cakes is far less likely to cause body damage to vehicles - point taken. I agree with you. Where I tend to disagree, my dear friend, is the point you made re: "what have y' got to show for it?" Hmmm. It wouldn't be a picture that I'm after, that's for sure. No, it's something much bigger than that. I've struggled with self doubt most of my life. I'm not sure why, or how, but geocaching has played a huge role in changing the way I look at myself in terms of skills and abilities. I doubt myself far less now than I did just a few years ago. I want to try new things. My fearful tendencies are no longer at the forefront of my thoughts. I'm much more open to experiencing adventure now. So, you see ... I've been working at putting self doubt behind me; the last thing I need is for one of my friends to suggest I'm not capable of doing something. Ten years ago, I probably would have said to myself, "Yeah, he's right ... I probably can't drive a 4WD." But now? I immediately asked him if he was kidding ... he wasn't. I've been asked by a few of my closest friends, "Just because he said that doesn't mean you have to prove him wrong, does it?" Well, I think if I didn't ... that self doubting would always be in the back of my mind, and I just can't allow that to happen. I may need to place a cache titled something like: "Open Mouth Insert Foot" or something along those lines. Any suggestions? Barrie aka: boysnbarrie Barrie dear, Well said, you are on the right track and all of us are pulling for you. The truth behind all of the kidding is that we are delighted with your willingness to take on challenges. Putting a challenge on you is just another way of showing that we believe that you are ready and will- ing to meet any challenge. On a personal level I truly appreciate the fact that you and other gals can dish it out as well as take it. For some reason that I fail to under- stand I seem to catch more flack from you Geocaching ladies than most guys. Of course I don't mind that at all except that when I lie upon my Self-absorbing pillow at night my tears get the hay all damp and smelly. So far my favorite story about you is that day up toward Otay Mountain when I offered to explain how to identify poison oak to a group of you ladies, and opened my presentation by saying "Barrie, if you will move your right foot off of that plant there we can get started." That's the moment when I gained deep respect for your truck-driving ability ... 'cause you sure knew how to express yourself long-haul style. Shi-ut! Your pal, Harmon Well Shut My Mouth!!!! I had no idea! The pictures say it all! You are Amazing! I am fully persuaded that you can do anything you put your mind too....You are Da Woman! Can I have some cinnamon rolls too?...but I must admit, it is hard to imagine you putting nuts on them...

The squeeze would prove them wrong. If you are up to it, that is. The squeeze, eh? Hmmm, I don't know about this ... I don't think anyone should be squeezin' me while I'm driving, Skillet! Have you forgotten ... I'm a professional driver! No distracting! Hey, you got a 4WD I can borrow for this latest challenge, Mister Skillet? Hmph, can you believe that silly guy is doubting my abilities AGAIN? Unbelievable, I say! boysnbarrie Ok,So we are driving in her car Sunday afternoon and she runs over what possibly was a small piece of rubber in the road and it hits her undercarriage...What's that? she shreaks looking in the rear view mirror as she starts to slow down on the hightway..It's nothing...keep going Barrie and remembering the times we have bottomed out and heard rocks hit the bottom of our Jeep I utter..."You never could drive a 4WD". She becomes unglued and begins muttering something about how she can not believe I would say she couldn't do something...I suggested that she buy a Rubicon etc but she didn't go for that...I see...now she wants to borrow someone else's 4wd to prove that she can handle it...hmmm Close, but wrong ... she wants to prove you are wrong AGAIN, my dear friend. Consider a portion of your last post: March 1 by kwvers! (15179 found) ...Life brings us many opportunities to learn from our mistakes ... Another opportunity is on the horizon! boysnbarrie Penelope BnB

Thanks, Paul!! I was a little worried!! Glad all is well, and hope to join up for a hike or Jeep run!! I'm sorry to see you archiving your excellent puzzles! Some are really excellent and although they may not get visited often, I'm sure they could provide puzzling fun for future puzzlers... There are a half-dozen I haven't finished, maybe I'd better get them before it is too late! So glad to hear that everything is OK, Paul. I was just about to e-mail you myself when I spotted this post. We sure have missed you lately! I hope you'll reconsider archiving those puzzles - at least the ones that haven't been DNF'd. Some of us put a lot of work into solving them, and have just never gotten down your way to find them. I bet if you put a call out on the forums for someone to help you check on them, you'd get a bunch of volunteers! I am planning on collecting most of them. If I find caches in great shap, those will probably stay -- no promises though. I have a bunch of ideas, but I want to do some serious clean up/maintenance before I put anymore out there. Paul Hey Paul! Like everyone else, I was really concerned when I saw all the disabled caches, and I'm happy to hear everything is okay. Like Linda suggested, we'd be happy to volunteer to help maintain your caches. Some of them are true classics and we'd hate to see them go, including the ones we've already found. At least you're able to give folks the opportunity to find them before you pick them up I guess we'll put your caches at the top of the list of ones to find, and if you need any help with cache maintenance, please let us know! "I have a bunch of ideas" is a really scary thought!!! j/k Hope to see ya soon, Sue TSUNAMI ADVISORY IN EFFECT!

Loved the log entry. A very interesting read/story. TSUNAMI ADVISORY IN EFFECT! KWVE 107.9 FM http://wcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/2010/02/27/7252...2/725245-12.pdf 19 minutes ago

Yes... how did you get in there, Harmon? I love the look on Jim's face! Duncan!, You're a genius ... an old-fart and donut dispenser. Why didn't I think of that? When I look at the facial expressions on Jim and Denise it seems pretty clear that they had a round of cocktails before Geocaching. Maybe that's the little-known secret behind their huge find-count. Gosh, there's so much to learn from Geocaching front-runners. Thanks for the enlightenment, Harmon Round of Cocktails? No Way! We gave that up 10 years ago...however...we had dinner at Cracker Barrel just before finding this cache and I had fried catfish,fried okra and for desert a peanut butter Moonpie! nananananana

I like Bass Pro Shop Red Head socks...lifetime guarantee!

Dear Harmon, I'm afraid I'm somewhat shocked (and concerned) after reading your Self-absorption expose. Perhaps it was a slight oversight, as I know how busy you must be. Was it your intention to leave out the ever growing buckwheat pillow population? I'm curious about the absorption rate as it pertains to buckwheat hulls. Please advise. Your PUD source, boysnbarrie Barrie dear, Sleeping on Buckwheat is an entirely different matter. That's what makes y' say "Otay" a lot. Say, have you noticed that Jodi is more of a grouch than usual nowadays? I'm worried about that ol' gal, yes I am. Your pal, Harmon I had no idea I said "Otay" a lot due to my pillow ... no one ever told me! Maybe twice a day, or so I say it ... Otay Lakes Road and Otay Ranch High. But what does that have to do with pillows and absorption?? What about Euro pillows? What about pillow shams? Ohhhhh, I just got the Otay thing ... LOL. Wow, I'm laughing now! That was funny! I haven't noticed Jodi being "more of a grouch" lately ... quite the opposite, in fact, she's always a real gem whenever I talk with her. Hmmm, ya think it might have something to do with you calling her "that ol' gal", Harmon? Looking for my pillow, Barrie Whew, glad you finally got it about Buckwheat ... O. Tay.? Hate to have not one but two good ones go by without being appreciated. Bad enough that "scream" and "Munch your pillow" went unnoticed. Well, you win, I'll put my graduate-level lecture notes back into the drawer for lack of interest. Now I appreciate how poor ol' Albert must have felt when he came up with that idea that time and space are warped by gravity. If y' buy that then what's so hard about believing that Self is warped by your pillow, huh? So why are you kissin' up to Jodi? Must be some sort of south-bay thingy what with all of you gals stickin' together down there as you do. (Just between you and me I think the world of that ol' gal but please don't tell her that I said so, O. Tay?) ... and by th' way, you ain't all that bad either. Sweet dreams, Harmon Grouch? ok Harmon....meet me over in the Banter threads...this Congrats thread is for people who are happy and celebratory... grouch...why I oughta.... Uh-oh. habu! went to the Lone Pine,California area and found a cache which we had archived because we posted the wrong coords...With just a vague description of where we left the cache..He and a friend faced the elements and found the cache! Hurray for habu! and mamaloo

Cat & Bobby celebrated their 1000 find at the Yuma Event! They are the humble ones! Way to Go!

Hey Now! Duncan! has found 12,000 caches! Congrats are in order! January 31 by Duncan! (12001 found) Hey Now! 12,000th cache! Thanks so much for this series, I never would have made 12000 this month if it were not for you guys! I also broke my single month record with 445 caches. Very quiet here on an early Sunday evening. SL. Thanks! D!

I'm picturing that ol' game Twister ... in the mud! My ohh my!! Did he say they're going to be changing clothes afterward? That outta be quite a sight for those nearby residents. Maybe I'll pass on the Glowstick Twister Stripdown Mudbath ... yeah, I need to think this through a bit more. Maybe I could donate a PUD or something ... hmmm. As we remember it not everyone who originally promised to join our adventure, made it that night. Not to mention anyone by name, but we did notice atleast one of the "no shows" is instigating this latest effort. Could it be they really didn't believe the first smackdown was possible, and are only willing now that some brave souls (or is it soles?) accomplished it? Guess we will never know, and it is not for us tom say. (er) Note to self; check for typos before posting I feel it's my duty as an inaugural, original, true, plankowner of the SMACKDOWN Crew to accompany these hoodlums to see if they do it right! Say, I hear that the one-true, original Smackdown team members will each receive a carton of Moon Pies at the awards ceremony. Ain't that sweet? Good idea to serve as an experienced observer and guide Jodi, kind of strips away the honors from that misguided Glowstick Smackdown band of lost souls. I've seen most of them in action and what I learned from that is that they will need all the help they can get. We know who they are, there's a Deep-Throat on their team if you can call them that. Well, then, Harmon, you betta join us, too!! I really have serious doubts as to whether ANY of us could do it without you, you know... I'm sure the "inaugural, original, true, plankowners of the SMACKDOWN Crew" would say the same thing. The only reason "they all didn't die" was 'cause you were there to save their sorry souls!!! Mrs.K just posted some pictures of the quillo which will be raffled off at the big event! GC225A1

(er) Note to self; check for typos before posting I've been thinking about those who are gonna venture into the swamp in search of tupperware at Szar Foyo. A noble venture indeed...Sure hope someone videos this one. Doesn't look as if the moon will be out either... Where I come from people who venture into swamps have been known to bring a critter or two home with them...Be sure to check yourselves real good. Oboy leeches, reminds me of a canoe trip I took one year in northeast Wisconsin. Those critters always got us when we had to jump out into the beaver-poo to push the canoes up over beaver dams. For the Smackdown redux the rushing water will clear out the leeches I fear. Too bad 'cause it's an interesting experience to accommodate both leeches and crotch-deep beaver-poo at the same time and same place ... if y' get th' picture. hope they remember...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGB1QodBbls
