namiboy Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 well i bought a new condo a month ago, and guess what's the only thing i can't find after the move? that's right, my gps. it was only an etrex legend, but the memories of the the short time i had it is really bumming me out.

Mushtang Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 It's always somehow ironic when I can't find my GPSr. "If only there was something I could use to point me in the direction of that thing" Quote Link to comment

namiboy Posted June 29, 2007 Author Share Posted June 29, 2007 Briefcase? At the office? Wife/child/roommate borrowed it? Wife 'put it away'? i put it away. this happens to me all the time, but i hide stuff so well i can't find it. i never learn i guess. last time i saw it, it was on the kitchen counter and i said "i'm gonna stash this so the movers don't steal it or anything." now i can't remember where i put it and i checked everywhere and in every box. oh well...

+nerdling Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 You know if you go and buy a new one the old one will show up. But then I guess you would have a spare lol. Quote Link to comment
+agilefox Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 (edited) I know who took it.... I recognize that guy! Isn't that The Moop Along? Edited June 29, 2007 by agilefox Quote Link to comment
+hukilaulau Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 You know if you go and buy a new one the old one will show up. But then I guess you would have a spare lol. Funny you should say that... A few months back I "lost" my eXplorist 500. I used my old etrex legend for about two days and hated it as much as ever. Ordered a new 500 overnight delivery. Called customer support and got them to register my new unit for direct route mapping. Couple of weeks later my wife was looking for something she lost, and found my 500 in the gearshift boot of her car. I cannot imagine either one of us putting it there! Gremlins, i tell ya...

+Harry Dolphin Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 In the last cache that you found? Quote Link to comment
+lacazg Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Old house? Maybe you should always wear your GPSr on a lanyard so you'd never lose it, like the tons of people that where memory sticks. Quote Link to comment
+Knight2000 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Actually i dont need to guess. I know where it is at. The key to finding is the same as finding any cache. Just do it in reverse order and you will save so much time. Every cache is always in the last place that you look. Therefore, you missing GPS is in the last place that you will look.

57chevy Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 How about between the driver's seat and the console of your vehicle? Quote Link to comment
+Renegade Knight Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 How about between the driver's seat and the console of your vehicle? I'm with this one. Under the seat, wedged in the cushions, buried in the console etc. Quote Link to comment

Of course it'll be in the last place you look, because you stop looking then! Quote Link to comment
+TrailGators Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 You need to think back to the last time you had it. Clear your head and I bet it will come to you... Quote Link to comment
