AmphibianTrackers

I will be trying out those socks. I have a lot of thorlo socks which work great in the winter but not so much in the warmer months.

We'll pick up the Christmas ornament kit and leave a loom and supplies and instructions for making a friendship bracelet.

They sound great. I like my waterproof hiking boots as well, but it is too hot here most of the year to use them.

If the skull is really bleached by bleach and in a separate baggy, sealed and contains a note that it has been thoroughly clean my daughter would be thrilled to find it. I won't even let her pick up feathers so she would be so happy to know it was clean.

I might take a collector spoon. Not sure. I really like the pressed pennies from machines at tourist stops. We could press s bunch to carry with us. Anyone like those?

That would be really fun! That would bring the treasure part back to the game. I don't like trash and my daughter has brought back plenty of swag that looks like trash to me and that in a few months is just going to be a bunch of trash to her as well. Then what do we do with it all?

Oh, waving hello! We have had to cover our feet and legs because of bugs. I love Columbia shirts and tevas! Oh yes! I have been drained by mosquitoes! Hate them! I lather myself in OFF! Deep Woods bug spray! I don't care how gross it feels, I can't stand the biting buggers. What coast of FL are you on? I am in the middle, south of Gainesville. Where are you?

How exciting! Congratulations!

Now, be fair...they didn't suggest we grope a frog just kiss one! ...And since I am one, I prefer kisses, thank you very much!

Seems that since hamsters are nocturnal the wheel would be spinning fast but alas they seem to be sleeping...or too full from the party to go very fast. Boy, what a week for the hamsters...

Yep. Extremely.

Oh, wowzer! That would be so exciting! We would be pulling stuff out to trade for that, that is for sure! I keep thinking of getting some survivor type buffs made. I purchased one but I think I could get them made up.

Thanks to both of you for your help. I have gotten so frustrated walking away from locations because I can't get the compass to work.

Thanks for the information. I noticed your other post and did download the app. I was wondering how do you get the compass view in that app?

Thank you. I am working on getting it calibrated. I appreciate your helpfulness!

Oh, awesome! I will look for it!

Btw, when I click on the FAQ for the Android apps it comes up pages not found.

I have been caching with my Nuvi which isn't great for much other than getting me to the location and using the htc Thunderbolt with gc.com app's compass feature to navigate to the coordinates. However, in the last few days the compass is jumping all over the place and is completely useless. I have had to take my laptop out with a wifi card and google earth to get me anywhere near the cache. Can someone give me some advice as to what to do about my phone app not working? If not that, could someone please tell me what hand held unit I should get for paperless caching? I have been looking through pages and pages of reviews and write ups and am more confused than ever. The biggest thing I would be looking for in a handheld is coverage as I like to go to areas with little to no cell coverage and accuracy. Edit: How embarrassing to misspell compass! Ugh, I just wanna cache...

We need to get more quick dry clothing. It is hot here most of the year and they really help.

Thanks for your detailed answer.

I believe Dale and Barb are doing one marked down as "space coast of Florida(central)" tho it does not look like the event is posted yet. Not that I can see. Thank you for the response. I hope to see their event.

I have been trying to follow. Is anyone hosting an event in Florida, US? I am new to all of this so please forgive my newbie questions.

We might take the batteries. Don't need an old cell phone. An unactivated travel bug tag.

I was getting frustrated in the hot weather with my normal hiking shoes and I ordered a pair of New Balance Water Shoes. The insoles come out and they have drain holes for water. That really helps when we get caught in the rain or I just need air vents because it is hot. Convertible pants that we sprayed with bug repellent are also favorites. What have you found to be your favorite clothing gear?
