Magic Marble Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 (edited) [/color] Hi Everyone....I am REALLY new. Have went caching with my son when he visited here from California. He hid one while here and now I want to hide one ...to watch the development or demise I tried to hide one a couple of weeks ago but the reviewer couldn't allow where I wanted to hide it...behind the one my son hid..which I understand. The reviewer suggested that since I have no GPS, I could ask someone to place my cache or go with someone. I don't mind someone else placing it and putting the "coords" on line, or I could. Like I said, I want to watch it and see the comments . Anyone inerested in placing a cache for me? I would maintain it if it isnt a #3 or higher difficulty. I do plan on getting a GPS...in a few months. I am still carrying the "ill fated" cache in my trunk, it is a med-large plastic detergent container. I don't think it is 5 gal size. Thanks.... MM I forgot...I live North of the river...near Antioch mall Edited August 13, 2007 by Magic Marble Quote Link to comment

But if that is your only option , I would suggest that coords can be off on your cache page. Edited August 14, 2007 by Prairiepartners Quote Link to comment
