I've done geocaches where almost every log mentioned bird (more specifically, goose) poop but the there was nothing on the cache page about it. I swear, the best geoaching stories posted in the forums are often from "former" non-geocachers that stumbled upon a cache and come here to find out what to do with it. I don't think I can recall someone finding one floating in the ocean though but there have been cases of caches found that floated down a river after a flood and one that floated across one of the great lakes. Great stories. Love it!

HAHA...yeah, I liked the bird poop warning...but it gives me a pretty good hint as to where it belongs since I know the pier pretty well. It might have to be our first legitimate find after we know it's back in place! Here's the rest of the story...I contacted the owner and he happens to be in France at the moment so I asked if I could give the cache to someone or mail it somewhere. Keep in mind, I've never geocached before and this thing was in the ocean and I have no idea who I'm e-mailing. Turns out my son's little friend is taking care of his lawn and mail while he's away!! It's not THAT small a town!!

Okay, will do!!

Thanks friends! I e-mailed the owner. It's a nice little stash...I hope we can get it back where it belongs! It looks to be a popular one.

Hi there! I've always thought geocaching sounded like a lot of fun. Maybe this is our first introduction! My husband and 7 year old were out kayaking on the ocean when they found a Geocache bobbing around out there. Inside it says "Replacement Log" Goleta Beach Park, Official Geocache Site Placed by: FRITS73 The little log starts in April 2011 and the last entry was 8 days ago. It is a little green-lidded "tupperware" with a black string on it and there is a magnet in the bottom and a couple little treasures inside. How do I find out where it is supposed to be located so that we can put it back? Thanks for any advice!
