First and formost we want to offer our heart felt condolences to Kelly and the entire Anderson family over Stuarts untimely departure from our lives. Althought we had not as yet had a chance to meet any of the Anderson caching family we feel as if they are a part of our everyday lives and have great admiration and respect for all of them. As owners of the geocache that Stuart Anderson was seeking at the time of his death we were absolutely devistated at hearing of such a tradgic loss and feel great sorrow and grieve to this day over the whole geocaching communities loss of a friend . We have taken a seroius look at all of our geocache placements and do not want this type of tragedy to ever happen again to anyone at any geocache site. In a way Stuart himself has revived our love of this game and the great group of people who participate in it . We feel he would want us to carry on with his spirit for adventure and love of life in the outdoors that lead to him joining the geocache community for which he will forever be a member in our hearts .

not to sure who coined the phrase micronausea but it did not start with me... i just did maintenance on a cache yesterday that the container which had been in place nearly a year , it was recently reported to be smashed to bits and left for dead ,,, as soon as i could get to the cache site we rehid a newer , larger container nearby in a hopefully more friendly spot . it is really too bad some people around this area think that more than a hand full of caches placed by one indivudual is too many i agree if you can not maintain a cache then do not place it or if it turns out the area is not suitable even after it seemed to be then dont replace it. that is why i have not placed any caches in very remote areas that i may visit only once in a great while . also why so many of my caches have been archived due to repeated plundering or the area became unfriendly for a cache spot. i have chosen to place caches where i can maintained and repair them if necessary. once again some of you think that this is worng ??? i am open to your suggestions on where to place a cache that is 100 % plunder proof and not in such a remote area that it is nearly impossible for the vast majority of cachers to attempt to search for it. i sure wish we could just all get along and have fun caching ,,, joe g.t.

ok niskibum i give in your right and i am not ?? ... the reason a good many of my caches have been archived is due to plundering not once or twice but many of them several times .. should i just keep replacing them over and over ? they were not poorly hidden or in areas more or less susceptible than many caches in the spokane area. some cachers do not have the time or physical means to do caches with difficult terains 4-5 or miles long hikes to get to . if urban caches (micros) are so bad why are they allowed ???? maybe the rules for placing caches at least .01 miles apart should be widened ?? what do you suggest ?? i am not the only one hidding caches in my area . some of the recent caches i have done in the spokane area seem to have had only basic planning and not months of preperation yet those cachers hid them anyway. i have also done several very nicely planned and located caches lately which i appreciate the cachers who hid them. currently i have only planted 2 VERY small micro caches and have archived one of them due to a safety problem that has occured in the area and i felt the cache needed to be archived to prevent unecessary risk of injury . the rest are of varying size and cammoflague and some are contained within a larger object even though the cache it self is of micro size. as per your suggestions i will slow down and not plant so many caches . i am getting the sense that you feel i should be spending more time planning caches out and traveling to out of the way rural areas to plant them ? hopefully the time i am spending planning caches will not offend you and others in the future. joe- greenthumb

ok my turn ,,i guess,, as i have stated on logs for a micro cache or two of mine if you dont like micros dont do them ... if you have a problem with how one is hid or where it is hid please advise the cache owner in a civilized manner and discuss the situation . any one who has a problem with any micro i have hid can freely and is encouraged to tell me if it is a dumb , stupid or just plain bad idea or a bad place for a cache .. if others want places to hide larger caches they need to seek them out just as i have , some cache spots i had thought of placing are already occupied and ideas for the size and type of containers are not limitless either. so whom ever has a problem with a micro cache placed by me in thespokane area tell me why you feel it is not to be a cache and it will most likely be archived so you all can go hide your 5 gallon buckets ,,, like to see how that will be hid in a busy residental park with out digging a hole which is not supposed to be allowed but i have recently found several burried caches. joe greenthumb-ke7pi.
