enfanta Posted May 4, 2003 Share Posted May 4, 2003 I don't really expect any replies to this post. I'm just using this space to keep track of my Finders Keepers caches. I tried to get recognized by gc.com (and therefore some web space and credit to the finders) but everyone said "no, that's not a 'real' geocache." So, until I can get that changed, I have this thread. And right now I have two Finders Keepers out there. One at Eagle Iron - Second Cohort and another at Spawner. Seek 'em if you want 'em! Published experts (1, 2) say with certainty that critical situations will arise which are totally unexpected. Quote Link to comment

+nikcap Posted May 6, 2003 Share Posted May 6, 2003 1st, I have no idea what you are talking about. 2nd, I just noticed the Oolong has a GPS on his head! That's pretty funny ... now tell me your avatar has been like that for the last three months and I never noticed Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted May 6, 2003 Author Share Posted May 6, 2003 Finders Keepers are temporary caches I set while looking for other caches. I leave the coordinates to the FKs in the cache when I find it and then the next person who comes along and wants to seek the Finders Keepers takes the info and goes after the cache. They are one-time only caches, winner-take-all: Finders Keepers. I haven't been able to get a cache page for them yet, so if you want to know where I've left them, just check this thread. Maybe if people like them we can convince the approvers to give me one itty-bitty page to list the active and found Finders Keepers. (And let you guys get credit for finding them.) Oolong has always had a GPS on his head. He was born with it. Published experts (1, 2) say with certainty that critical situations will arise which are totally unexpected. Quote Link to comment

enfanta Posted May 17, 2003 Author Share Posted May 17, 2003 Congrats to rgbisme on finding the Iron Cohort Finders Keepers. They found it, they kept it, they sent me the card. Thanks! No news on whether or not the Spawner F.K. has been collected. What appears to be coming at you is coming from you. Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted May 23, 2003 Author Share Posted May 23, 2003 The Spawner Finders Keepers is being sought. I'll have to set some more FK this week-end. I'll keep you posted. What appears to be coming at you is coming from you. Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted May 25, 2003 Author Share Posted May 25, 2003 Spawner FK was found... but not by the cardholder. Gotta move quickly on these! What appears to be coming at you is coming from you. Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted June 9, 2003 Author Share Posted June 9, 2003 Set two Finder's Keepers while attending the South Central PA Cacher's Picnic. One in MissJenn's Pavement Ends and the other (an impromptu FK) in Höchste Spitze am Blauen Marsh See. Go and get 'em if you want 'em! Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted June 23, 2003 Author Share Posted June 23, 2003 Left a Finder's Keepers in Walk in the Park, IV Warrior's new cache in Reeds Gap Park. Seek 'em if you want 'em. The FKs set at the South Central PA Cachers picnics have been claimed. In case you were wondering... Care the Deception of Imitative Administrator Quote Link to comment

enfanta Posted July 5, 2003 Author Share Posted July 5, 2003 Left another Finder's Keepers at the Elves Tree a Raccoon cache. Well, at the first stage of that multi. Who's the demented bastard who designed THAT cache? Care the Deception of Imitative Administrator Quote Link to comment
+DeskJocky Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 Oh my! The first stage is very evil! And I think I was the only one to find that cache so far... Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted July 7, 2003 Author Share Posted July 7, 2003 It was evil! But in a lovely way... Set an informal Finders Keepers at Lost Village of Little Falls. "Informal" means I brought the caches but somehow managed to leave the cards behind, so I wrote everything out on a piece of notebook paper and left it at that. If you collect the LVoLF FK, please drop me a note. Also set one at Circus Train Memorial and had a fascinating conversation with the woman who lives across from the memorial. She's related to the Hannah mentioned on the memorial who watched a panther attack one of their cows. When the memorial was built, this woman put a capsule containing animal bones and a booklet on the tragedy in the right pillar of the memorial. If you keep going down the road to the hunting club on the left-hand turn, you can see the skull of the tiger they had to shoot. She had a ton of information, very interesting.

+DeskJocky Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 I got out of work late today and Accident_Prone_Hiker was already caching. He beat me to the Finder's Keepers prize. Now I know why I hate him so much. Quote Link to comment
+Accident Prone Hiker Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 DeskJocky is green with envy because I'm unemployed and can cache at will. Thanks Enfanta for the cool prize! I really had to do some searching for this one, even though I nearly stepped on it multiple times. The ironic thing is, that I placed a cache earlier today in the same type of container that this one was in. Thanks again Enfanta Quote Link to comment
enfanta Posted July 14, 2003 Author Share Posted July 14, 2003 Nearly stepped on it?? How tall are you, anyway?? Care the Deception of Imitative Administrator Quote Link to comment

+Accident Prone Hiker Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 Well, I'm 5'10"..........but the egg was on the ground, right out in the open. The camo kept it well concealed. i searched under logs, in bushes, i even climbed a tree. But it was right out in the open on the ground. Quote Link to comment

enfanta Posted July 20, 2003 Author Share Posted July 20, 2003 If someone doesn't claim the FK at Reed's Gap, I will have to go back there and collect it. That will be the very first time I've had to do that. "Don't make me come out there!" You've got til next week-end and then it's going, going, gone...

enfanta Posted July 28, 2003 Author Share Posted July 28, 2003 Well, there's a first time for everything. Went and collected the Finder's Keepers at the Reeds Gap cache. I was kind of surprised no one had gone after it: A Walk in the Woods is a nice multi-cache in a neat park. Ode to a Pigeon: Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, You Lookin' at Me? YOU LOOKIN' AT ME?!

enfanta Posted August 21, 2003 Author Share Posted August 21, 2003 Dear Secret Cacher, Thank you very much for my very own Finders Keepers. It was a lovely thought and quite a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately, I was not able to find it... It was delightful pawing through the flower beds, perhaps that was to be the thank you?? I can't help wondering if you chose red on purpose when you stamped that fish, despite the fact it looks nothing like a herring... Ode to a Pigeon: Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, You Lookin' at Me?

enfanta Posted October 11, 2003 Author Share Posted October 11, 2003 Yesterday I happened across the flower bed as the grounds crew was tearing it up. They had not seen anything like a film canister or an Altoids tin...
