  1. Hello all, I'm taking a job transfer to our Shannon MS location. We are leaving the freak show California where I was born and raised. I've been Geocaching for. . . 8 yrs and have a great time. I would like to meet up with some of you great people and do some caching. I know about the critters out west and what to look for, But out here it's all new. Anybody have a pointer or two I'm all ears. I do alot more caching then logging. I'm into it for the memories. Gene
  2. I hope to read all the posts to see what a good time we missed, It seems life is unfair. My Cx is giving me the Evil every time I put a new work related address in her. I hope to get our life back in control to one day be back out among you all wonderful people. Please post the good stuff. Gene
  3. I am thinking we have interest in this.... Note to self....where in the heck is that GPS??????
  4. Be careful about the part numbers. I have a Legend HCx which is the same form factor as the C. I ordered the replacement parts 2 weeks ago and they shipped the 2 part numbers above. Turns out 249-00069-01 (tape) is for the old B&W series but 414-00041-06 (rubber seal) is for the C and HCx series. I called back and they shipped the correct tape which is part # 249-00069-02. I was told the parts were $5 and shipping was $5 for a total of $10 (from Kansas to St. Louis). The correct part was shipped at no extra cost. But, when I opened my Discover bill, the Garmin charge was $19.37. I called Garmin and was told the first rep was wrong and the parts are $5 EACH and shipping is $8. Why $1.37 more? He said it was sales tax; I never realized they taxed shipping cost! They had these seal problems with the eTrex line since I bought my first one in 2001 and they always repaired them under warranty, sometimes more than once. I'm just surprised they even charge for the parts since it's an ongoing problem. I just ordered my new rubber. Thanks for the help. As for the tax, If a company has a store of a facility in the state your in, they must charge your local tax.

  12. Something happened last nite. going up 67 north past the drive in a whole string of reds&blues were head'n north. I stopped counting after 21. What about 8E to Ocotillo S2 north?
  13. 67 is still closed. The wife and dad tried to get up to Southern land dam. Stopped at SPP and Wildcat canyon. The guardsmen said try back tomorrow. Ma&Pa are set up in one of the sons house. We're packing.
  14. Due to the fires and associated troubles, Could their be possibility of post-pone the camp out? We believe our Mom&Dad inlaws lost their house, Their safe.
  15. We pondered the same predicament. I bought this. https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=869 Works great. found it at the Map store in Kearney Mesa.
  16. Just got word of a new cacher comming to town in the spring. Seldom seen Landcruising,(Carl & Kelly) are having their first kid. He does a few caches with us once in a while, Very busy, So he doesn't make on the boards. If you want to give a shout out, captn_carl@yahoo.com Thanks DaMom of DaMoores (sister)
  17. Now that is funny! Is it pathetic if we can all appreciate the humor of almost every item on the list? We really have lived here too long!
  18. Why is everything Jeeps? Some people drive Toyota's. I said soccer mom vans too.....
  19. We were at the end by the old golden goose cooking too.
  20. We just got back from the Lakeside Parade.....WHOOOO HOOOO!!!!! Hot time in town tonite!!!!! (Hick humor) The kids were wondering if the San Diego Geocachers could put a entry in to next years parade. All typs of groups are represented. We could have some people with trash bags Some in Jeeps Some in Soccer Mom vans Some Hikers Just to show how diverse we are. We could make it a GeoEvent also. Or Not. What do you think? DaMoores
  21. Wienies? OK, how about an event in Death Valley in August? .......Just kidding.... Been there Done that...... 7 fun filled days in Stove Pipe Wells. 106f at midnite.
