Happy Birthday, geocaching!

[+powercatjeffy]

I was just browsing through itsnotaboutthenumbers.com and I came across one of the most found caches in their database. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GCGV0P

 

Coincidentally, today is the day that geocaching began. The above cache details the first cache. It's hard to believe it's 8 years old.

I made the pilgrimage to the Original Stash site last summer. It was a bit more memorable than the average roadside park and grab, because it was the *first* roadside park and grab.

 

I always try to find a cache on the anniversary of geocaching. Otherwise, it would be like not going to church on Christmas.

 

Today I found a terrain 3 multicache called "F is for Freedom," along with five other nearby caches, to celebrate the day. I like the freedom that geocaching gives me to travel around, discovering new places. It seemed like the appropriate cache to visit.

I placed 3 caches today in honor of May 3rd!

(I also found one... ;D )

 

Happy 8th Birthday Geocaching!

I placed this one on May 1st in honor of the day the game became possible. Initially it was not a multi, all you knew was that it was within 323 feet of GZ, but the reviewer wouldn't approve it that way. I saw another one done that way up around Boston on the 5th anniversary. (I couldn't find it!)

There was a lovely celebration event yesterday just down the road from the plaque. A good time was had by all. There was even a well preserved can of beans on display in a custom carrying case (which I think was placed in the original stash as a trade item).

I thought that thing was sitting in someone's closet, never to be seen again.

That would be my "Selective Availability ON" (GCNBC7) cache. There is also the similarly themed Magellan ON (GCZC77) cache nearby.

One of which was mine. I never knew that you were one of the ones to "help" make the Robinson Town Center. It does have a great view when you get there. And i'm surprised that you've never seen that type of container
