hello fellow cachers I am sending a T-bug to ElCajon around the end of April with a non-geocacher(mother-in-law) after she visits us in Florida. I am looking for someone who can get this little fellow into a California cache. If anyone can help please email. The bug eventually is headed to Hawaii and then return to Florida. This move is being done with the bug owners permission.thanks for any assistance the federation boldly going where others have gone before

the event was a huge success we had over 40 geocachers present. a freelance journalist for an article on geocaching, and 4 new converts to geocaching, I appreciate all those who attended and am currently working on a geocaching extreme weekend. if interested in more details email the federation@se.rr.com boldly going where others have gone before

the hofbrau house is defintely in MUnich spent much time ther at Octobefest '78,'79. not a place to be missed boldly going where others have gone before

I recently held a geocampout and and one of our event caches was a night cache. once you got to the final location you had to triangulate the postion of the cache. the cachers each stood at one of the three points and held there flashlight on a compass heading till the beams found the intersection point and they found the cache. it was a great cache for an event. The cache is Voices from the scrub by the federation boldly going where others have gone before

There is a cacher here in Florida who sells the military version camelbacks and give geocachers a really good price from what I have been told. look in the southeast forumns and look for teamshuey he sells them boldly going where others have gone before

duh yeah what he said, but did you notice? boldly going where others have gone before

Has anybody ever noticed that the the movie " The Soggy Bottom Boys" is actually a movie about geocaching. Throughout the movie they talk about seeking a treasure. The are constantly giving clues to the cache George Clooney says "we arein a tight spot boys" and they even have a old, blind, black man give you the long description of the cache. I just thought it was interesting thatHollywood is now trying to get into the act. boldly going where others have gone before

turnout for camping is looking better. it looks like we are up to about 40 geocachers camping withus, we currently have 2 days worth of events planned, and lot of time for cache hunting, there are approx. 40 caches available. look forward to all being there. we will be on frs channel 2 for those seeking geocachers and we will be staying at the shanty pond campground. the federation boldly going where others have gone before

i don't mind doing truly unique virtuals. this one sounds unique to me, but what is the reasoning for not doing a micro or a vitual at this location. even if you have to do a offset or multi-stage where they could go to the bhudda to get some bit of info for the final cache you have got some one to the bhudda. but i think it is worthy of a virtual. the federation boldly going where others have gone before

the lazy cachers told me that suburban isles park on the southside was in dire need of cleanup. have not seen much activity on this post do we want to work or not jacksonville boldly going where others have gone before

maybe slightly off topic but I don't think so

that sounds like a good idea gator rx I will contact the jacksonville parks dept and see if they have any paticular areas that need work and will give me an oppurtunity to talk to them about geocaching at same time. greg

we have recently had a meeting at westside and it didn't really look all that bad. how about it other cachers ideas for parks. possibly st john river water managemnt lands. that maybe be relation building with them.

We have 2 similiar caches in our area. they were handled 2 different ways. the first one cacher set up a multi where you had to find info from the cemetary andplug it in to come up with the cache coordinates. the second which is a cache I am cuurently doing will be located as close to the cemetary as possible but not in. the cemetarty is very old and fragile so I will not expose to that kind of foot traffic but it will be viewable fron cache site. I had several discussions with area cachers and theey felt both methods would be ok. I also had one cacher tell me he thought it would be cool to be bremated and sent out as a travel bug if he could still log caches as finds and get miles on his bug tag.

alright how about it geocachers do we know a worthy park that needs some leaning on Earth Day. Contact the federation and let's see what we can get together. contact thefederation@se.rr.com

HI Jeremy we appreciate the oppurtunity to voice our opinion on this issue. I guess I am one of the few who do locationless caches. They have actually caused us to do some quite extensive searches for submarine memorials where there are only one in each state or a statue where there are only 110 in existence, but I also can see some lame, no thought caches. I think a seperate catergory would be fine and tighter restricrions on placement. Also it might be helpful to put certain days of the week for submittal when normal caches usually run lower or an explanation of why this would be a unique ie only 110 in existence type requirent for submital something to make the prep work a little more in depth. the federation

mr snazz, ididn't originally post to this because of the time frame. but while I was caching saturday my meridian was weird also I was traveling north on hwy 17 with 4 strong satellites for 30 minutes or so looked over and ha nothing. 0 satellites turned off unit, plugged in to cigarette lighter in case of batteries. pulled over to side of road, nothing seem to work. i knew the general area i was searching for 35 to 40 minute later satellites came back up and I had no problem the rest of the day. curious about time differences we all seem to be experiencing similar problems.

will be posting cache next week for mar 22 weekend. hope there is plenty of people there. have commitment of 15 now
