+RonnieGeo Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 We were lucky that we started our caching "career" in Yuma, AZ and California was only a mile away, also, Mexico was 2.5 miles away so we got our "other country" quickly as well. As for other state that took some effort, it was Nevada about 2 months in and it was pretty exciting. We are going on a Disney cruise in the fall and will get to log a couple on the disney island in the Bahamas (WOO HOO!!!) Quote
+mahini Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 My first find was in another state! I tagged along on a hunt during a family reunion! Quote
+countrydirt Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 Two of my first "virtuals" were state line/corners. I bagged Colorado/Kansas/Oklahoma on one and Colorado/New Mexico/Oklahoma on another. Quote
+Col. Flagg Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 Our first out of state find came pretty early in our caching career, about two weeks in. It was Scenic Rest on I-71 North . We were on our way to the Ohio Renaissance Festival and bagged a few along the way. We've since made two other states, but are concentrating on completing the Indiana Epic 92 . So far, we're 21/92.

+Wooden Cyclist Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 (edited) Freedom Memorial GC1B9A7 was my first. Being in sales has its Geocaching advantages. I can sneak in some caching while I drive from meeting to meeting. My territory is Berrien County, Michigan which is located on the Indiana/MIchigan border so I can jump across the state line to grab some finds. Edited June 10, 2009 by Wooden Cyclist Quote
+sbell111 Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 In July 2001, my wife went to a conference in DC and I tagged along. My brother made teh trip in from New York so we could have a few days together. On July 5, 2001, my brother and I found four caches in Virginia. One of them was both of our first out of state cache. I like to think that it was GC175 Burke Lake Park, one of the oldest active caches (placed on my birthday, 12/17/00). Quote
+cachecrashers4 Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 Our first out of state cache was I finally hid a lame roadside micro GCMF28 in Massachusetts. And it was. Quote
+OzGuff Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 My first out-of-state find was actually my second find! A few days after finding my first cache -- in NC -- I was headed to pick up my mother at the Atlanta airport -- found two on the way. (Think I also had my first DNF on that trip...)

+mdplayers Posted June 11, 2009 Posted June 11, 2009 After about a month of caching, I had to go to PA for business and picked up three finds while there. We live close to DE and often cache 'out of state'. Quote
+abbybeth Posted June 12, 2009 Posted June 12, 2009 my first out of state find was just outside of Gettysburg. The cache was right down the road from a girl scout camp, so I took a couple of girls from the troop out. They dropped off a travel bug, and came back with 2 kittens. Quote

I have never found a live kitten in a cache. Someone must have traded in some hamsters. Quote
+DonB Posted June 13, 2009 Posted June 13, 2009 (edited) Kind of comical, I live about 3/4 of a mile from the Illinois state line but my first out of state find was in Missouri on 5-26-03 and I had caches in Montana, Washington, Wyoming, Kansas,and Mississippi before I had a find in Illinois on 10-29-03.
