  1. oh great, now I spent the whole weekend trying to figure out how I can buy the Nikon 5700..... **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  2. NO NO I am not in Denver either, thank goodness. Just thought I'd help whomever it was in Denver that needed help **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  3. I have a friend that has an earlier version of the Sony 717, what ever was out 2 years ago. He loves the photo quality. Now loathes the giant lense on the front. Bulky, bigger than the camera body itself. I've looked at the 5700 and wish I could win the lottery. I feel it is a more balanced camera in your hands. I personally like the layout of the body better. (I am a Nikon 880 user so I am partial to Nikons anyway). Picture quality is probably comperable ??? So I'd go with the one that is the best ergonomic fit for you and feels the best hanging from the neckstrap. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  4. Our small local REI has the GPS classes usually twice a month. And a geocaching class at least once a month. Go to www.rei.com then click on Stores and Events on the left frame. p.s. I just noticed you are in Denver -- You have the giant REI superstore where the old car museum on Platte used to be. And I checked for you, no GPS classes. But they do have a Weekly Clinic: Maps, Compasses, & Orienteering...Fri 1:00 PM. Maybe take your GPS to that??? **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  5. Forget the Matchbox and HOt WHeels. I personally like the Johnny Lightning British Classics cars. So if anyone likes to trash their cache with those, let me be the first in line to try to find them!!! **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  6. I listed about 50 of my favorites (of the 240 some) in my PDA. I always carry my camera and GPS with me and when I see something I snap and waypoint it. Granted, I am behind in my logging, but having just as much fun. Easier to remember to say...look for a historic covered bridge while I am in Oregon or stand-alone analog giant clocks in Seattle, when I don't want to preplan some hunts, or I am not the driver and they don't want to drive out of their way. Was that a long enough run on sentence? **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  7. ok, or a .jpg for that matter. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  8. ditto question **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  9. And where near you and me have you tried this??? hhhmmmm? **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  10. How about a try it on for size cache. One cache in the Pacific Northwest of course, where you could go to its coordinates, open the cache, try on the different sizes and check out what the green and blue is going to looks like and then post back here! Maybe the XL's really fit like an XXL... (I haven't had lunch yet and am rather loopie) **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  11. quote: In my *opinion*, the Find *should* be sovereign on Geocaching.com. That is the only thing that makes sense *to me*. The essence of geocaching, to me, is:go somewhere find something leave something if I take something log the cache Count me in! I know I am new to this sport, but I think ClayJar says it all. It's what I am in the sport for. Go/Find/TSLS or TNLN/Log. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  12. I'll try again tonight, thanks. That (total system overload) may have been the issue. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  13. After loosing about $20-25 worth of goodies in my traditional cache to raiders, I am now only setting micro's. Can't fit lots of goodies of worth in them, unless people would like to exchange gems! **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  14. When we finally found a cache that wasn't emptied, I took a friendship bracelet. I still have it tied to my GPSr. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  15. I loaded a 32k photo the other day to a log and tonight I went to add an additional at like 27K. Error message said I had to keep under 100k. Modern math? 32 plus 27 > 100? **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  16. I was having this sort of problem early today (and yesterday too if I remember right). Not going from bookmarked pages either. The only way I remidied it was to turn off my computer and restart. What ever it was cleared it self up. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  17. Yup, I just snagged one off ebay. The person/company I got it from is in California so it should show up soon. GOt it for $10 too. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.

  23.

  24. I found open package PDA screen protectors at the Big Blue W store for real cheap on the discount rack. All were accounted for so I bought them, For the price, I'll cut them to use for GPSr screen savers. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
  25. This guy? http://www.garmin.com/products/etrexsummit/ I take no credit in originally finding him, I grabbed it off someone elses post. **************************************************** Quote me as saying I was mis-quoted.
