  1. I was surprized that you didn't tell them to get bent Lep. After some of the things that have happened I was surprized you didn't let them twist in the wind. lol A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  2. Last fall I was getting ready to go caching when I saw my father's dog had escaped and rand odwn the dirt alley across from my house. Following him down the alley I hit a rock that cracked the Y pipe in my cougar and ripped everything from the catalytic converter back free. We cought the dog and took him home then still went caching. It cost me $450 to replace the whole exhaust and an entire saturday that could have been spent caching.

  3. Zing... two bricks... a short plank.... Where is that anvil when you need it? A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  4. I say it C I T O. but I've heard a lot of people say see-toe and I often have to stop and think about what they are saying. It always seems odd to hear see-toe. Eeyore A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  5. There are two things that make geocaching what it is. 1 The experience 2 The log. If you have had both of them no matter how many people there are with you If someone found it and everyone signed the log then they should all claim it as found.

  6. Personally i never have liked the frog, but i have been wanting the crayon shirt in short sleve for some time. A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  7. Put the towel in the ammo can, paind DON'T PANIC on the side of the can and explain to them that a towel is the most versatile and useful thing a hitchiker can carry. Tell them that it is very important that the towel is safe. There may be a beast of Traal on the plane or it may crash and your flotation device set cussion may need a sail, and if its not terribly diry you can dry yourself with it as well.

  8. the best way to learn it with the manual and hands on experimentation. Read how to set a waypoint go out int your yard and get a position then mark it as a waymoint. Thend walk down the street a few blocks and over one or two. then read the manual and do a goto to the mark you created and take a different route back to your house watching the way the different screens show you where you are and where you want to go.

  9. My favorite caches have been The River View cache A considerable hike up and down a mountain in each direction with a breathtakign view of the Allegheny River from well over 100 feet above it. And The Elves Think Magellan SUCKS Not only is this a great hike but its the anticacher cache. A two stage multi that informs you bushwhacking is not necessary but the trail makes a loop nearly a quarter mile out of the way. But bushwhacking it not advisable its one of the worst areas of undergrowth. There are briars and nettles and poison ivy everywhere off trail. But staying on trail isn't easy either there are several spring fed mud holes that block the trail. And if you would bushwhack you miss an adventure walkign up the stream which is pretty and has some intresting sights on its own.

  10. I may find give-n-takes' caches I have an aunt in Warren I've been thinking of going up for a weekend to do some caching, I'm not terribly keen on my aunt so caching gives me a good excuse just to stay there to sleep!

  11. But its still a good cache! Even if Lep did hide it with a bit of angst. lol Being the brand faithful Magellan user that I am, I quit cursing magellan by the time we got home saturday night. I was a little displeased again on tuesday after searching agin, but at least I knew I was looking for something with no coords then. Now I just have to find a way to fix my SporTrak since I broke it on saturday. Eeyore A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  12. The globalmap 100 looks like it would work very well for geocaching. The data cable and detail map software is a little pricy but not much more than Garmin or Magellan's software. A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  13. Well we spent several hour today hunting the cache again then decided to at least log Lep's cache. Which I must say is my second favorite cache I've ever hunted. It was awful muddy though anyone seeking it should wear shoes with a gripping tread and waterproof. Thanks for the cache Lep it was the high point of another fruitless Magellan hunt.

  14. I am sure there have been plenty of emails and I know there have been a few phone calls. It looks like there have been a few problems with this contest, mostly probably oversights. The coordinant error hapens to have had quite an effect. Most of the caches seem to have worked out well, thought the security of the sites server seems to be an issue as well. I think with a little more work this could have been a faultless and enjoyable affair for everyone. A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  15. It looks like there will be some interesting topics at the wing-ding, I am sure this topic isn't going to end any time soon. Eeyore A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  16. We ran into Lep, Puppyman, and a few cachers new to us in Settler's Cabin park we all searched all over the park looking for the cache. We and lep were the last to leave at around 3:30 not having found the cache. there were lots of interesting stories out there today.

  17. try taking a stroller down any path you want to hide a cache on wheelchairs are limited by the diameter of the smaller wheels which are roughly the same diameter as most stroller wheels if a stroller rolls smoothly a wheelchair should be ok.

  18. OK no monkeys and no Klingons, next Quest master will say no elves and no jackasses. I say we revolt and strangle every dwarf in the forrest! Eeyore A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  19. Well being a Pittsburgher I had to vote hamster seeing as this was the birthplace of the cache hamster. Eeyore A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  20. Maybe I should make a cache that hangs in the air exactly the way a brick doesn't. I wonder how many finds it would get. A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  21. OK thats just a little too freaky obsessive. And I know my sig items aren't worth much but considering the time I put into hand making every one, I would be pretty irritated if the same person kept following me around and collecting them all. I would quit making then thats for certain. Eeyore A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  22. I really wish we could come but I was nearly skinned the last time I drug her half way across the state. We had a blast but poor Shado gets nervous any time she leaves the county. But I would suggest someone take a printed copy of the cache page and make Enfanta read it with all due enthusiasm before the commencement of the hunt.

  23. He is about as tall as you are Enfanta! A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
  24. Just get another GPSr, one is never enough anyway. And when she comes home imagine how happy she will be that she now has her own so there is no bickering on the trail as to who is going to hold it. Eeyore A rocking chair or a porch swing with an old person in it is a histroy lesson.
