I would just like to give a warning to some geocachers that are thinking about taking a puppy with you to go geocaching. We have takin our dog Chi on almost every cache we have found. It's been a year and we are still taking Chi with us to help find the cache. LOL The problem is that I can't even grab my coat without the dog going nuts. I go for my keys and the dog goes nuts. All I have to do is touch the gps or the camera and the dog goes nuts. He thinks every time I walk out the door he's going on a hunt with me. LOL At times this could be very funny and somewhat cool, but when I go to the local store for milk or something, it can get annoying. The dog is just a geocaching nut. lol Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

I just don't see how some of you maintenance more than 10 hidden caches. I went to one of our hidden caches today to pick up an unofficial travel bug and couldn't believe that my cache was almost empty after I just stocked it full of goodies. I have no clue how some geocachers manage 20, 50, or even 100 hidden caches. I would lose my mind. Anyways, I have come to the conclusion that most geocachers are cool people and have that geocaching conscience, but some just go around taking goods out of the caches without signing the log book or the online log. I guess that's the way the world works. For now though, I will deal with it and only hide micro caches in cool spots and continue to maintenance the ones we do have hidden . I just needed to vent a little. Thanks. Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

Catch a drunk driver Two rednecks, Bubba and Earl, were driving down the road drinking a couple of bottles of Bud. The passenger, Bubba, said "Lookey thar up ahead, Earl, it's a police roadblock!! We're gonna get busted fer drinkin' these here beers!!" "Don't worry, Bubba," Earl said. "We'll just pull over and finish drinkin' these beers then peel off the label and stick it on our foreheads, and throw the bottles under the seat." "What fer?", asked Bubba. "Just let me do the talkin', OK?," said Earl. Well, they finished their beers, threw the empties out of sight & put label on each of their foreheads. When they reached the roadblock, the sheriff said, "You boys been drinkin'?" "No, sir," said Earl while pointing at the labels. "We're on the patch."

This is something I don't understand. On the other site there is live chat and instant messenger. So everytime this subject comes up, I feel I have the right to tell you guys about it. The more knowledge, the better right....... We just happen to find out about that site first, and really got use to all the features. The members all seem to be very cool, and have always given us good advice. So feel free to check it out for yourselves. Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

Why does it have to be a New york thing? All I know it was snowing here today and Jacksonville, FL was 80. I bet this weekend there will be a lot of geocahing activity in the northeast. It's just kinda hard right now with all the caches frozen in place. So with a little patience, I bet everything will be fine. Just take a chill pill and go find a cache.

I had this to say back on November 3rd of last year... "I had such a good time caching today with Casey; we set a goal to have 100 finds by Christmas. I'm not too sure if we can do it or not. The weather and my job play big roles. I just feel this gives us a little more ambition. Plus we have nothing to lose except a little weight. LOL" We have 87 finds on navicach and 62 finds over here. The numbers really doesn't matter much to us, but my son Casey is getting very excited because the temperature is going to reach 50 degrees by this Sunday. It's been 3 months for us without a find. Now that the temperature is going out of the single digits, we wll be reaching 100 finds soon. P.S. I forgot we found one on January 14, 2003 so it's only been a month and a half.

Someone who visited our cache had it happen to them, not us. I thought I would clear that up. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=40867 Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

quote: I went to college in Rochester. Its a tough town. The only thing tough about this city is the weather. Im not sure what the stats are on criminal activity in Rochester, or where we stand in the safest place to live in the USA, but this is the first bad experience that Rochestarians have had caching that I have heard of. Our family will continue to go caching, even without a weapon. (Remember that thread? ) I am not trying to start a conflict either, but I just like to keep my positve attitude. quote: One more reason to not post coordinates for parking spaces All a potential crook has to do is watch this web site, and find the easy places to find a car.

This is the latest log from one of our caches. User comments: We found the cache after much looking around. The snow was very crusty and we almost gave up. One final go-round turned it up. It was in good shape. The weather was crystal clear and COLD!Thanks for the cache. {:-)] One bad note and WORD OF WARNING to all cachers anywhere--we returned to our car, (parked at a legitimate parking area, very near the road and at a traffic signal) and found out that the car had been vandalized. Someone had broken out the passenger window and had stolen my "caching bag" and a small backpack. The police officer indicated that this is not a novel occurance. So, keep stuff out of sight!! It was sad to read a log that someone could do this in broad daylight in an area that is so nice. It's totally wrong and disgusting that this stuff happens. When I go caching I wasn't too worried about someone breaking into the car or truck and I usually don't lock the doors. After reading that log, I have changed my mind and always will lock the doors and keep everything out of sight. I hope this doesn't keep people from going to the cache; it really is a remote area. Wrong place, wrong time? Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

On 4-8-2001 Gimpy placed this cache and has 98 logs so far. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?ID=1577 I think that's way cool since the cache is still going strong. Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

Most of you guys are affilliated in computers with your jobs. Isn't there any other geocaching carpenters in here besides me. I would like to read a log one day that says " After building a house all day in the freezing cold, (or the blazing heat) I went and found this really cool cache." I guess for now though there just isn't that many geocaching Carpenters. I know I'm goofy, I'm just bored as hell waiting for a little warmer weather.

quote:My paycheck depends on the weather. It's just really hard to build houses in the rain, snow, and the wind. I have to admit though, I have shut down the whole framing crew because the weather was so bad. Then went out and found a couple of caches. LOL I have been in construction since high school. So thats all I know how to do is build. The only reason I am on the computer now is because my wife introduced me to geocaching I still have alot to learn about computers and need my wifes help often. I do, however, know how to look up caches and log finds. I also know how to use the forums and gain alot of useful information. I learn something new here at the forums everyday. I had that to say back in October in another thread. Nothing has changed for me, so I did a simple copy and past. Maybe one day in the future I will have an inside job, but for now, I will just deal with mother nature and just build on. Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

quote: I disagree. quote:It may not be how we planned it, but it could still save their lives. I am going to teach my kids to buy a condom straight from the store, not a cache. I wouldn't want my soon to be 14 year old son using some condom out of a cache. A bad apple could poke the condom with a hyperdermic needle that carries HIV virus. So I don't see no lives being saved here. Think Again.......... Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

A geocacher must have some serious issues to leave a condom in a cache. What would they be STUPID OR SOMETHING Even though my kids are getting older, there is a proper place and time to discuss this. Just so happens a cache out in the woods isn't the place or time. Where has the morals, respect, and just plain common since gone to. Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

Dear Ma & Pa: Am well. Hope you are. Tell brother Walt & Brother Elmer the Marine Corps beats working for old man Minch by a mile. Tell them to join up quick before all of the places are filled. I was restless at first because you got to stay in bed till nearly 6 a.m., but am getting so I like to sleep late. Tell Walt & Elmer all you do before breakfast is smooth your cot and shine some things. No hogs to slop, feed to pitch, mash to mix, wood to split, fire to lay. Practically nothing. Men got to shave but it is not so bad, they git warm water. Breakfast is strong on trimmings like fruit juice, cereal, eggs, bacon, etc..., but kind of weak on chops, potatoes, ham, steak, fried eggplant, pie, and other regular food. But tell Walt & Elmer you can always sit between two city boys that live on coffee. Their food plus yours holds you till noon, when you get fed again. It's no wonder these city boys can't walk much. We go on "route" marches, which the Platoon Sergeant says are long walks to harden us. If he thinks so, it is not my place to tell him different. A "route march" is about as far as to our mailbox at home. Then the city guys gets sore feet and we all ride back in trucks. The country is nice, but awful flat. The Sergeant is like a schoolteacher. He nags some. The Capt. is like the school board. Majors & Colonels just ride around & frown. They don't bother you none. This next will kill Walt & Elmer with laughing. I keep getting medals for shooting. I don't know why. The bulls-eye is near as big as a chipmunk and don't move. And it ain't shooting at you, like the Higgett boys at home. All you got to do is lie there all comfortable and hit it. You don't even load your own cartridges. They come in boxes. Be sure to tell Walt & Elmer to hurry & join before other fellers get into this setup & come stampeding in. Your loving daughter, Gail P.S. Speaking of shooting, enclosed is $200 towards a new barn roof & ma's teeth. The city boys shoot craps, but not very good Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

With the Country in a crisis drawing attention to Airports might not be a good idea. I'm sure there are other spots around to hide a cache. Our feet go where the caches are!

I could probably shave with my skill saw. Hollowing out a log would not be a problem. All you have to do is shim the guard and use the blade very carefully. Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!

I'm always looking for a bargain. If it's going to garage sales to look for cool trinkets, or searching the web for the best Gps deals. You can bet, that I will find the deals. I am not made of money and that's what's great about this sport. You don't have to be rich or have a lot of it to play. Just have a little common sense, respect, and your in.

I hid Spiderman's Hideout on January 19 of this year and made it quite clear, that most importantly is the find. We made this decision because I have alot of other caches that I maintain and this one is all about the signature and not trade items. It can be hard work sometimes to keep up on your caches and some members might not want that responsibility. Duane Upinyachit Our feet go where the caches are!
