This is a real geocaching song that was sent to me by a US cacher who kind of franchised one of my puzzle caches. It's not bad!

 

Can someone send me an mp3 of this? My computer doesn't recognize the format on the above link.

I'm looking for a geocaching song to sing at our next event in the S. Calif. area...

:rolleyes:

 

Hi there,

I have an mp3 so if you reply to my e-mail I'll reply with the attachment.

 

Best Regards,

Martin, Lynn and Maddie

Do you know where you're going to?

Do you like the things that life is showing you?

Where are you going to?

Do you know?

 

Do you get what you're hoping for?

When you look behind you, there's no open doors

What are you hoping for?

Do you know?

 

Once, we were standing still in time

Chasin' the fantasies that filled our minds

You knew how I loved you but my spirit was free

Laughin' at the questions that you once asked of me

 

Do you know where you're going to?

Do you like the things that life is showing you?

Where are you going to?

Do you know?

 

(INstrumental Bridge)

 

Now, looking back at all we've planned,

We let so many dreams just slip through our hands

Why must we wait so long before we'll see?

How sad the answers to those questions can be

 

Do you know where you're going to?

Do you like the things that life is showing you?

Where are you going to?

Do you know?

 

Do you get what you're hoping for?

When you look behind you, there's no open doors

What are you hoping for?

Do you know?

Songs of Encouragement for the Orme Ascent - Half Man Half Biscuit

 

I think that should be the name of a cache - and a geocaching account name. Perfick!

 

MrsB

 

HMHB's latest album (CSI Ambleside) has a very good song on it called "Lord Herefords Knob", which is also a cache name. :D I think they like hills!

 

"Twmpa, Twmpa, you're gonna need a jumper"

I posted this on a similar thread some years ago:

 

Yesterday, my geocaching troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as though they're here to stay

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

 

Suddenly, I'm not half the cacher that I used to be,

There's a DNF hanging over me.

Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

 

{Refrain} Why I failed to find

I don't know, I couldn't say.

I got the co-ords wrong,

Now I long for yesterday.

 

Yesterday, caching was such an easy game to play.

Now to find this cache I need a way,

Oh, I believe in yesterday.

 

{Refrain}

 

Yesterday, caching was such an easy game to play.

Now to find this cache I need a way,

Oh, I believe in yesterday

 

Mm mm mm mm mm
