Highlights from GW7


Recommended Posts

If you attended Geowoodstock VII, why not share some of the highlights of your Mega Event for those that might have missed out, or for those that were helping out under a tent?

 

Here are a few of the shots that I took home from Bell Buckle, TN:

Otay... here's my highlight from GW7...

 

It's not from the event itself, it's from a local newspaper AFTER the event:

 

Just wanted to update this a bit. The number of geocachers visiting Bell Buckle is now estimated at 7,000 -- that's 2,000 more than expected. When volunteers went down Monday to clean up the camping area where the tents and RVs had been -- there was nothing to clean. The cachers not only bagged their garbage, they took it with them! If only all of our visitors (and some of our residents) were as considerate!

 

Yes! :ph34r::o:)

Excellent! I know I saw a few outer wrappers from geocoins and picked them up and threw them away as I went.

He looks a little embarrassed. Maybe he is remembering the time you visited Disneyworld and when he misinterpreted your instructions not to feel Goofy down there? :):blink::P:P

He's 13. Half the things I do in public embarrass him. As it should be.

 

But thanks for the uncomfortable visual involving my kid and some guy in a character suit.

The irony is that someday he'll be embarrassed that he was embarrassed by those things.

My highlight was learning that there are Eucalyptus forests with geocaches in them. I told my beloved that we need to go there.

 

I took a series of photos of Dogs of GeoWoodstock and put them in my log. Here they are:

My Favorite Picture! While everyone one else contented themselves with standard issue swag, this lucky person took home this beauty that she found near GeoWoodstock. I didn't ask whether she traded up or even:

The middle pic is of Oreochip, Mrs. Oreochip and Oreo the "Cachin' Border Collie". Had a great time. Thanks. :blink:

I was going to say, he looks like a teenager and they're pretty much ALWAYS embarassed by their parents. Speaking from experience as we have two at the moment. :P:)

 

Awesome photos everyone! Wish I could've been there...
