+Allanon Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 Anyone going to be around and want to do some caching this weekend? I know it's a big holiday/family weekend, but I thought I'd ask. Thoughts? Quote
+Recdiver Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 (edited) I'll be at a dive club picnic/party on the 4th with some people you know at Mukilteo. Wouldn't mind doing some caching this weekend however I'd have to take it pretty easy cuz of the sprained knee, no mountain climbing for me. I have Friday off however she who must be feared and obeyed has plans for me on that day. Was thinking about doing some caching around Mukilteo on the 4th. How's the foot?

MarcusArelius Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 Hmmm, is a NAUI certification still good after 30 years? Quote
+Shop99er Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 she who must be feared and obeyed That's hysterical!!! I MUST remember to start referring to Mrs. Shop99er like that. Quote

+Recdiver Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 Hmmm, is a NAUI certification still good after 30 years? I still have a PADI cert from 1972 that in theory is still good. I like to pull it out now and again at a dive shop. They just blink at the picture that is 30+ years out of date. For the record I did eventually get a higher certification, Quote
+Recdiver Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 RecDiver said:with some people you know That's got to be my Brother his wife... Well at least the brother. We are going to be talking about a camp & dive trip to Porteau Cove Canada and since my knee is likely to keep me out of the water I'll probably be caching while the rest of them are diving. You up for some camping in July? Quote
+AndrewRJ Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 Sorry good buddy I have been draged into the family thing that weekend. I will have to catch you later. Quote
+Allanon Posted June 29, 2005 Author Posted June 29, 2005 You up for some camping in July? In July I still will be working at the bookstore on Sundays...so I'd not be able to make it...but have a great time for me. Quote
+Recdiver Posted June 29, 2005 Posted June 29, 2005 As far as this weekend goes, any thoughts about where you want to cache? I'm still available this Saturday, assuming you're working the bookstore on Sunday. Quote
+LittleBlue Posted June 30, 2005 Posted June 30, 2005 I think I am not busy all weekend- the girls like one day where they can go swimming with dad and go to their favorite restaurants and just generally get spoiled. Quote
+Allanon Posted June 30, 2005 Author Posted June 30, 2005 Looks like Saturday is the best day then, since I work on Sunday and possibly Monday as well (at least I get paid double time, I think)... Anyone have any place they really want to go, cuz I'm pretty easy. LB, since you've done the most...what do you think? Just as a suggestion, I'd recommend GeoRoo drive to caches...or the Marcus ones on Snoqualmie. Quote
+Recdiver Posted June 30, 2005 Posted June 30, 2005 Well gee if I'm still invited any where is good with me. Quote
+LittleBlue Posted June 30, 2005 Posted June 30, 2005 Anything's fine with me- I haven't done either of those places. Quote
+Allanon Posted June 30, 2005 Author Posted June 30, 2005 Well gee if I'm still invited any where is good with me. Of course you're still invited and since you've done the fewest in this area I figured anywhere would be good... And with your knee and my foot I figured the drive to / scenic hill top caches would be good. Quote
+LandRover Posted June 30, 2005 Posted June 30, 2005 I'll ask and see if I can go but not sure if I can afford the gas. I plan on burnig a tank on the 6th up at snoqualmie. I've been looking at Marcus' "A Drive in the Woods" series and would really like to get at least a couple, I haven't looked at GeoRoo's yet. Quote

As long as you're going the Snoqualmie route on the sixth, you could always do some of the "Drive" series that day after the other adventures... Quote

I know the PADI is, but you're best to check with your local dive shop to get the expert word about NAUI. Quote
MarcusArelius Posted June 30, 2005 Posted June 30, 2005 I was just kidding around. I haven't gone down in years...... No wait let me think about that.... Quote

+Recdiver Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 (edited) Have we decided where we are going yet? I'd like to know so I can load the waypoints. thanks edit to add: I'm willing to drive my CRV it might be a more comfortable fit for 3 and 'talks2animals' may be joining us. Edited July 1, 2005 by Recdiver Quote
+AndrewRJ Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 If the offer is still open I would like to join you. Turns out I won't be out of town till Sunday. Quote
+evergreenhiker! Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 WEll, this sounds like fun, but Inmywoods and I have to go to a dog show, but she and I will hit a few aorund Mt. Vernon after that. Quote
+LandRover Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 The boss says I can go so just let me know where & when. Quote
+Allanon Posted July 1, 2005 Author Posted July 1, 2005 Looks like we've got a nice little group coming together. Very cool. I've started a bookmark list of some of the ones I thought we could try on the Highway 2 corridor and the surronding area. These are Drive-Bys and/or very little walking (half mile round trip) as far as I could tell. Some I've done, most I haven't but wanted to. If anyone wants to park at my place, message me and I'll give you coords...otherwise I figure we can meet up at the Lewis Street park in Monroe (the parking lot right in front of mohai's Bridging the Sky cache). Where we go from there is up to the group. Next decision is...what time? I prefer earlier (8-9)...other thoughts? Quote

+Allanon Posted July 2, 2005 Author Posted July 2, 2005 LittleBlue just called and she'll be at my place at 8am (+/-) and if no one else is here, we're going to start at Moss and maybe also maybe do Tualco Grange before meeting all y'all... Let's here it from everyone! Who/What/Where/When! Quote

+Allanon Posted July 2, 2005 Author Posted July 2, 2005 Who's with Who will be arranged at the parking lot... Quote
+Recdiver Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Allanon, Thanks for arranging this we had a blast. Still checking but we have either 21 or 22 finds. Of course I may not be able to walk tomorrow. Recdiver& talks2animals Quote
+LandRover Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Thanks Allanon for suggesting a great day of caching. I ended up with 24 finds of course everything that we found today was a find for me as I have not been caching in the area before. Anytime I get to take the LR off road is a good day. Too bad we didn't have a little better weather for the views. Not to jinx us but nobody got a flat tire today!!! And for all you that missed out on our little trip a WJTB escaped my clutches and fell into a cache somewhere north of the Skykomish River today. Quote
+WxGuesser Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 Hmmm, is a NAUI certification still good after 30 years? i was just thinking about looking for my padi card that i got when i was in highschool... (advanced open water here) but i'm sure the dive tables have changed since the 80's.. Quote
