I only got stiffed once, and the combination of ebay's fraud unit and the Postmaster General's office got my postal money order back. I tend to use USPS money orders for that reason- mail fraud can be prosecuted as a felony, I believe. Never did figure out why the guy wouldn't ship the items. He complained to ebay that I was impatient- after 3 weeks of not answering my emails and phone calls!

We have had about 3 times as many snake bites as normal this year. For some reason, Poison Control is wild on giving antivenom this year. We have already run short of antivenom once. Mostly copperheads, but the last one wasn't able to bring in the snake with him. BTW, I am in a trauma center in Wake County, NC

Just went there last night- first time! I see why everyone likes it so much. My 5 year old sports fanatic loved it. Thanks for the coords, will post it now. JoeyBob

I was thinking around 7 or 7:30 to let people get home from work, but not too late if you have kids at home- what does everyone think?

Okay, The Ale House it is, how about Wednesday the 14th? Someone said Thursdays were busy, how does this date work? This will be a regular gathering, the September meeting will use the suggested format of hiding a cache that contains the coordinates for the actual gathering. I would appreciate any ideas for the location for the September meeting. Thanks again to Number6 for help last time with the location. Let's see if we can break 20 cachers in attendance this time!

El Diablo, I am always in your Legion of Darkness- Err, I mean glad to help out. Yeah, that's what I meant, glad to help! Glad to hear you are back on your feet, I have been out of the loop for a while. JeffersonStone, are you up to the challenge of the DARK side?

Always have the hiking stick, if I'm dressed there is a knife somewhere on my person, but if we are out in the woods, Ruger SP 101. Too many rabid foxes and raccoons in this area. I used to carry pepper spray, but I have seen it have no effect too many times at my job.

I have a son named Austin, but we didn't move the travel bug- it was placed long after we visited. Good luck with the bug. JoeyBob

My kids are 4 and 5, and they have their own accounts. they cache together, I drive them.

Look up their caches. Two great guys who do a lot for geocaching. Worth a trip from Raleigh, actually! Haven't seen many snakes this year, but I carry a hiking stick for poking around, you never know....

I was going to try and be first last evening, but took the kids to North Hills park instead. (Insert voice of wife: Lets go to North Hills, they can ride bikes in the parking lot, those greenways have too many hills!) Oh well, maybe I can beat JeffersonStone this morning!

I had a rock get stuck in a brake caliper while driving on a gravel road. Leatherman tools and sticks save the day!

Oh well, have to get back to work. Too many sick kids tonight! See you this morning- JoeyBob

El Diablo, hope you and Little Frog get as much out of the media experience as JeffersonStone and I have. I had someone recognize me here in the hospital tonight. One of the doctors I work with called yesterday and the familiar refrain began- "hey, didn't I see you on TV?". This has been a lot of fun, and it seems that we are introducing lots of new people to the sport. Now, if all the people YOU introduce hide caches as hard as yours, people will come from all over the country to find them! Congratulations!
