Trader Rick & Rosie Posted November 3, 2011 Author Posted November 3, 2011 Talking ABOUT THE OCB GOT us THINKING ABOUT A CHILI PICNIC IN THE PARK, NOW THAT IT'S GETTING COOLER. Think we'll make an event for John Chestnut. No, there'll be NOBEANS in our chili... Quote

It can but don't refer to it as "chili"--Call it something else--pork and beans or tomato soup with meat and chili peppers and beans, or cowboy stew or something like that. No, we're not Chili Snobs, we just are arseholes. Quote
+FloridaFour Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Great! Hoping to have a cache put in there....very soon.......and some letterboxes if anyone's interested..... Quote
+SixDogTeam Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 It's getting too cold to Geocache in Florida Quote
+FloridaFour Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Ok..awake at 0449 so am online... Husband and I are in savannah right now. Went to Going Coastal event. Not sure if it went Mega or not. I was guessing 400 people. It was cold at night..so we didn't stay for the "Moondust" night event. We did get a bunch of different icons though. Letterbox, earthcache, regular, virtual and challenge. As well as two regular letterboxes. We went to a CITO at 345 pm that was supposed tot start at 330pm....it was over already. I guess that was a "trash mob"? Our funny highlights were on a two mile walk in the woods on a very root-lined trail, a unicyclist was riding along.... And we saw a big beetle....pushing an animal poop along the trail. Hilarious..... Quote

Trader Rick & Rosie Posted December 2, 2011 Author Posted December 2, 2011 HAHAHAHAHAHA It's too cold to geocach Quote
+SixDogTeam Posted December 15, 2011 Posted December 15, 2011 HAHAHAHAHAHA It's too cold to geocach IT'S TEBOW TIME IN DENVER Quote
+TheLoneGrangers Posted December 16, 2011 Posted December 16, 2011 It's never too cold, or too hot or to rainy or whatever to cache! LOL Quote
+FloridaFour Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Must See Cache: Cachemedics have a cache in Palm Harbor/Tarpon Springs area called something like Christmas Cache, WOW is all I will say.....creative and well constructed. Quote
+FloridaFour Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Wow....guess I think way too much like a geocacher... I hid a letterbox in Chesnut Park....the clue led to a tree. It didn't say where in the tree, just that it was an obvious place for an animal to stash something. At the bottom was a hollow area. I hid an empty container , with no letterboxing stamp...but a picture of a squirrel that says "Aw nuts! Keep looking!!!! And put some acorns in there........ The real letterbox was in the back of the tree, five feet up in the crook...in plain sight. Two finders have looked and found the decoy....but not the real letterbox. Both sent me emails complaining that they didn't like that.... One was mad at me...the other confused... It was right there in plain sight!!!! I thought my idea was funny!!!!!!! I think its more fun to have to look around a little and find a fun surprise....not have it handed right to me. Guess geocaching has me thinking way too much outside the box. Try to be creative and different in letterboxing....not funny...not appreciated. I'm so disappointed because I worked hard on that box and it is a good carve. A geocacher would've found it in two seconds. Quote

Trader Rick & Rosie Posted January 4, 2012 Author Posted January 4, 2012 HAPPY NEW YEAR CACHERS Quote
+FloridaFour Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I planted new letterbox hybrids as well as regular letterboxes in Palm Harbor and Oldsmar. Check em out! Before it gets too hot.... And no, its not too hot yet.....July through Sept...that's too hot. And people, double and triple check your coords when you hide caches. Use a real gps, not a cell phone...and do something creative!!!! I'm sooooooooo over tiny micros in the woods.....at least make them something different... Someone's gotta compete with CacheMedics! Haha! Quote

It was easier and quicker to find than the traditionals in the park, all the coords were dozens of feet off! Quote

+oldrocknmetal Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 Geocaching in the panhandle earlier this week. Quite different-there are hills up there! Quote
+oldrocknmetal Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 This just in- GeoWoodstock XI will be in Paradise!!!! Check it out GeoWoodstock XI Quote
+FloridaFour Posted June 5, 2012 Posted June 5, 2012 This just in- GeoWoodstock XI will be in Paradise!!!! Check it out GeoWoodstock XI AWESOMENESS....geowoodstock... I went to one Mega Event in Georgia, just over 500 people. May 25 could be hot, though...eek. Wonder if I'm off that weekend, if so, I will try to go. I went Geocaching and letterboxing in San Juan, Puerto Rico a few weeks ago. Beautiful there...highly recommend it and Vieques Island. I haven't been geocaching much lately. I've been sucked deeply into the letterboxing world. I found I'm a pretty good stamp carver, especially in our area where there's not a lot of letterboxers. I won awards for my Chesnut Park series and my Upper Tampa Bay Park series. I think my geocaching experience helped make them more interesting, as well. I do want to put another hybrid and some letterboxes down in Walsingham Park in Largo, probably in October or so, when it's a bit cooler. Quote
