Thank you

I am new to Geocaching. A friend of mine told me about it and it sounded like alot of fun. I got a GPS and took my wife and two young boys (10 &3) out for a "treasure hunt" on valentines day. We had such a great time together and got out in the open air. We took pictures of us finding our first cache and my wife scrap booked them. After a couple of weeks of treasure hunting here and there and reading these forums we got wooden nickle blanks and the boys stamped them with our new team logo "The Carson Camp Cachers". This is really a wonderful activity that my whole family enjoys I was just really amazed.

 

The more I learned about this the more I realize the effort put out by all of these cashe owners. To all the people who have put these out there for our enjoyment, my family and I want to thank you. One day we will learn enough to place our own cache and do our part for the next "noobies" enjoyment.

 

Thanks

I feel the same way. The moderators on this forum have endless patience and great attitudes too (helpful, and often humorous.) I wish geocaching had been around when my kids were little.

You're welcome. Thanks for finding them!!

If you're ever in my area, I'll be Pleased as Punch to read your Found It logs in the caches I've hidden.

 

Before too long, you'll be Hiding your own caches too.

 

Happy Caching!

Yeah. Don't go spreading any rumors.

 

Actually, the mods deserve a pay raise. Maybe even a big sloppy kiss.

Well my wife (the first and ONLY LOL)and I are going on 20 years together and were married for 7 before we even had kids. We have done many things together, lived in Europe, traveled... I work alot so we bought a travel trailer last year so we could make memories for the boys while we were still young enough to make them:) I think geocaching will compliment that plan VERY nicely. When we went out on Valentines day to our first cache and went to a beautiful area, less than a half mile from where we had lived for the last ten years we knew we had found something special. I just couldnt believe this was out there all this time and I NEVER knew it. I then realized how much work went into putting these great caches together and how many of them where around my area. After reading the forums and seeing the discussions on placement and rules etc. I realized how much there is to putting them out there and felt the need to thank you guys and gals who did this. I know they cant see us when we find the caches they laid out but they should know that the smiles of two young boys accompanied the smile on google map.

Don't be fooled, some can. Cachers have been known to place caches in view of their homes or places of business so they can watch searchers.

 

Seriously, take photos and post them to your logs. As the owner of a few caches myself, I love seeing photos of smiling families hunting my caches. Those smiles are why I place them, so it's great to see 'em.

NV,

 

Good to hear from a guy who understands the impotance of family & being a dad. We have been married 20 yrs and and have been blessed with two great girls. Time spent with Dad is great for a child, time spent in nature is as well, put those two together and that child has been given quite a gift.

 

Always remember this my firend; If we spend our thime with them now, they will spend their time with us later.

 

God bless, have fun.

As a very new Cacher I too appreciate all the work that is put into the hiding and keeping up with the maintenance of each Cache. I have been doing this for less then a month and am very excited and patiently awaiting the approval of my first two caches.

 

There's a lot of fun work that goes into all this addictive sport and I appreciate all of it. I love caching and look forward to upcoming events. I appreciate all the work that goes into this forum. It help me understand how to get started and answered many a blonde questions I had.

 

So, Thanks.....

That sounds like a solid plan

As to the pay raise for the mods....... I would like to propose that their pay be doubled, retroactive to the first of the year. Reviewers too should recieve a similar increase.

I'll second that motion; good job, guys and gals!

I gotta admit I like the mods right now. I used to post here on the forums a couple years ago and the mods were way annoying. Constantly closing threads for no reason, complaining about any and every 'off topic' post, creating new threads from threads, etc., etc. I don't see those mods on here now and the mods that are here now are much cooler and butt out to let the conversion flow. I appreciate it. Thank you
