avroair Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 So it's official Avroair and Dhenninger from New Jersey are coming to town, Oct 6-10 for their Midwest and Heartland tour. October 6th - 10th --- We will probably be there on the Sunday or Monday. Anyone available to go caching? Quote Link to comment
+japtkd Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 That would depend on where you're planning on visiting. Beffums and I live in the greater Evansville and could probably be available to show you around a bit. Quote Link to comment
Rupert2 Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 (edited) oooohhhh...let us know where when your plans are finalized. I am in the Indy area and would not pass up an opportunity to cache with a couple of NJ guys. Lets go! Edited September 20, 2006 by Rupert2 Quote Link to comment
+Corp Of Discovery Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Might be able to. Drop me a line if/when you know you'll be in the Chicago area. Quote Link to comment
+Team Tigger International Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 In the Northern Indiana area here , just 5 miles south of Shipshewanna , and Pretty much in between South Bend and Ft. Wayne. If you are near this area just drop a line and we will see if we are available !! Star Quote Link to comment
+bikinibottomfeeders Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Let me know if you are going to be around Bloomington. After the hospitality that you showed my buddy prairiepartners I'd love to cache with you. Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted September 22, 2006 Author Share Posted September 22, 2006 How big is Indiana? We have two days to drive from Memphis to Louisville with detours inbetween so I think we can go halfway up the state. That would be the Sunday or Monday. =) Quote Link to comment
+Neos 1 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 How big is Indiana? We have two days to drive from Memphis to Louisville with detours inbetween so I think we can go halfway up the state. That would be the Sunday or Monday. =) Indiana is anywhere from about 130 to 160 miles wide and close to 250 miles long. It's a decent sized state. By the way, I live just across the Ohio River from Louisville and our last pq showed several thousand caches within 10 miles. Quote Link to comment
+Team Tigger International Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 well we are way up near the Michigan Boarder ... ( about 25 miles from MI that is ) ... Star Quote Link to comment
+Beffums Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 If it's extra time between memphis and louisville, you might seriously want to focus on the area around Team Neos. It's right across the river from Louisville and it would take way more than a few days to clear out all of the traditional caches and virts in that area (that's without doing the multis and puzzles and ...). If you want to hit more of the area, head up into IL, then cut across on I-64. It will run you right by Evansville (JAPTKD and I'd happily show you around, so would Solarwib, or any of the other ECO members) and from E-ville to Louisville is about 90 minutes on I-64. We don't have nearly the cache numbers in our corner of the state as there are in the Jeffersonville area, but we could easily fill up several hours to a day. (About 100 or so caches within a 10 mile radius; 200 within a 20 mile radius of downtown). Bloomington is a great place to check out, but can be hard to get to on highways, depending on where you are coming from. If you have the time, I highly recommend trying to cache up there though. Andrew and I haven't done much there, but what we've heard about sounds worth a detour (if there's time in your schedule for detours). Vincennes and Terre Haute are due north of Evansville (ok, close to due north), and both have lots of caches, and decent highways to get there. An alternate route from E-ville to Louisville would take you through Owensboro Kentucky, which has 80-100 caches, again, all within the city limits. Just in case - I think the drive from Memphis to Chicago would basically fill up all your free time - nothing left for caching! but, if you hit southern IL, you could easily get caches in all three states. There are a lot along the Ohio where you can take a bridge from one side to the other to get caches in both states (KY and IL, or KY and IN). Quote Link to comment
+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 SW Missouri is still here. I see Missouri listed. Let me know I wll go. Quote Link to comment
+Prairiepartners Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 You know if I'm in town, I'd be glad to meet up with you 2. Anywhere you all want to go caching in Indiana, I'm sure you'd be welcomed with open arms and will enjoy your time caching in this state! Quote Link to comment
Team_Geobee Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 I wish I could, but I'm afraid i cant, but please check out our measly 2 caches in South Kansas City. Quote Link to comment

avroair Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 (edited) Looks like we may be in Evansville on Sunday afternoon and might have a chance to go caching with Prairie Partners. Edited October 4, 2006 by avroair Quote Link to comment

Hey - you're actually coming during our fall break, so I'm really free right then. (ahhhh - two blissful days with no college students to deal with). Andrew and I could meet up with you (& Jim if he's free) wherever and show you around if you'd like. Beth/beffums Quote Link to comment
