Just wanted to point out that Tread Lightly was reference in an article that was written just yesterday in the NJ Star-Ledger. My feelings on TL are that they have a great goal and purpose, however that they may take things a little too far and a little too seriously... EDIT: wanted to add the link to the NJ article: http://www.nj.com/sports/ledger/index.ssf?...2140.xml&coll=1

435 in my 20 mile radius.... a few weeks ago i hoped on my bike and rode out to a cache that i had DNF a few days earlier. since i was already out there, and i had the day free I rode out to all the unfound cache in my garmin. about half i remembered reading the page for, but mostly i just winged it. kinda fun, but i did log quite a few DNFs...

By the way, NBJ I would recommend checking out my three midtown caches in my Follow Me Home series. The three could be completed within 2 hours, all done on foot. Have fun!

Best Excuse For The Question: "what Are You Doing?"
JakeBond replied to 50Cal's topic in General geocaching topics
Ive only ever been asked once. by a car full of cops. I walked over to the car and told them i was on a scavenger hunt. They drove off thinking i was insane. Given it was past midnight and i was over waist deep into thick bushes with nothing really scenic on either side of them, while using a flashlight... -
I get bored finding plain old tupperware containers, so i've kind of vowed not to place any. Ive placed 3 already and have planned two more. here are links to the 3 ive placed: http://i12.ebayimg.com/04/i/07/1c/f4/e7_1_b.JPG http://www.galleria-e.com/isroot/Colemans/...Images/1304.GIF http://i4.ebayimg.com/05/i/06/f8/38/56_1.JPG and the two ive planned: http://www.galleria-e.com/isroot/Colemans/...Images/2203.gif (i painted over the explosive sign!) http://cache.solutionsmanagement.com.au/im...400x600-pvc.jpg what do you think?

How Did You Get Hooked On Geocaching?
JakeBond replied to Midget Izzy's topic in General geocaching topics
I read into Geocaching after I discovered wheresgeorge in college. I was really interested in the game, but at the time couldnt possibly afford a GPSr so i forgot about it. Im not sure what reminded me about it, but recently I stumbled across the website again and decided that this was something that I wanted to try. I bought my legend cx and have been actively caching for about 2 months and have found 43 caches. im hooked. i think i was hooked even before i ever found one... -
What about flooding the area with really really hard to find micro just to frustrate him? Put a note on the log pages for cachers not to find them, and see what happens? like 100 different 35mm containers....

cache not catch.... sorry, someone had to point that out...

too obvious. maybe just a Signal patch or http://www.geocaching.com/images/nav/logo_sub.gif

What Woman Would You Most Wanna Cache With
JakeBond replied to codeman3's topic in General geocaching topics
can i change my vote? right on.... -
i have nothing personal against tupperware, and they serve their purpose very effectively. However I find they have no character. I love ammo boxes (tho ive never planted one) beacause they have character. ive used a decon container. i found a tupperware container near a cemetary recently and it just seemed so trashy. I just personally like to put more thought into my containers. I regularly seach ebay and the web for new/clever containers. my most recent cache container WARNING A PARTIAL SPOILER FOR NYC CACHERS http://i4.ebayimg.com/05/i/06/f8/38/56_1.JPG

uv paint can be found at a variety of stores both on line and real world. i recomend Rosco ClearColour.. it can get pricy tho. For computer mod.ers, they make a uv sensitive spray paint that is much more resonablly priced (maybe $10 per can) called neonMaxx http://www.hollynorth.com/home.php?cat=28&...ection=0&page=2 http://www.fxsupply.com/uv/uvpaint.html http://www.computercasesandcables.com/ccc/...1?mv_pc=froogle good luck!
