+Geo Bandits Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 ATTENTION Stockton cachers!!!! I plan on hiding a cache every week so we can boost the amount of traffic through Stockton. So I hope that you will join us and hide caches! Thats all I ask A CACHE A WEEK!!! We like what one of our CVC cachers did over the last weekend! Now thats the ticket...Good job Sanruft and family. Maybe its time for TeamTek to do some thing like that, then maybe you will get that mad dash to the North... After all the North side has more places like this than we do down here! We just did a caching trip this weekend down highway 395 and was great!!! There was also SUN!!!! Quote Link to comment
+TeamTek Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 Wow good job Sanruft!Thats the kind of stuff I like to see! We need to go down to Modesto one of these weekends now and find all of them! Quote Link to comment

So I hope that you will join us and hide caches! Thats all I ask A CACHE A WEEK!!! Well, there goes the neighborhood! And then some more! Well, I guess we are the only 2 active Stockton cachers this time of year. Where is everyone? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone out there? We have a few caches to put out, but we are really busy being FTF on the new ones you're putting out. ____ Since CVC Tag is coming up on a month with no find, would it be possible for me to relocate it to a different area? I just went out & checked on it & it was still there with a little leaf litter around it but still out in the open. No one seems to bother/question me when I go out there & look. Perhaps I should relocate it to a less "Hideous" area. ------- Did anyone get a load of that flashlight Cachecows209 was luggin' 'round last Friday night! 10 million Candle Power was abit overkill wouldn't you say? Makes for a nice hand warmer! Quote Link to comment

+TeamTek Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 You should have just seen my face a couple of seconds ago. I thought those caches you posted last post were here in Stockton! I could have sorn I saw Sandman Park on there somewhere. Oh well too bad they're in Modesto . Good Luck Z tomorrow at 8th Grade Day maybe I'll be in one of the class rooms helping out! Oh and BTW the tests that are on Saturday are but brutal! You sit there for endless hours waiting for people to get done. I think with as much time I had, if I can recall, I think I invented a game with your fingers and watch . Quote Link to comment

+Sanruft Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 I was just looking around the forums and I could not find another thread anywhere with more replies. Am I correct in my findings that this is the most active thread in all of the geocaching forums? Quote Link to comment
+Hemlock Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 The "Cheers" and "Whoizzit?" threads in the Off-Topic forum are larger. But I think this is the largest thread in a "real" forum Quote Link to comment

What's interesting is that 5 of the top 10 posters in this thread haven't posted in ages. There's been a changing of the guard in this area. Quote Link to comment

+fizzymagic Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 We have a small group coming out tomorrow to get "National Treasure." Perhaps we'll bop down to Modesto to do some of the new caches there. Or perhaps we will hide a truly evil puzzle cache in revenge for the lack of caches in Mountain House. Quote Link to comment

I'm not sure that you can see all the older posting numbers either. When they closed out the last forum provider, they brought every entry over but the tally didn't make it. So what you see is the half of it. LOL Thanks Hemlock for the direction on that posting stats. I wonder if I'm there?? Quote Link to comment

Perhaps I should relocate it to a less "Hideous" area. Well, Dawn and I went looking for Tag and could not find what we were looking for. However when we arrived I went over to the office and let them the know what we were going to be doing. I person said "good Luck". However luck was not on our side, and we ran out of time and light. As we were looking for that cache we did see that some of the trees have been taken out of the ground. I hope people did not still the trees, but I'm sure that was the case. Dawn and I may go back tomorrow this time gloves may be in order to bring. This one is a hard one to find and I'm not sure if even Green Achers will be able to find this one. . Green Achers could not find our cache at Lodi Lake and it is a large cache. That is about it for now and have a good night. Richard of the Geo Crickets. Quote Link to comment

+Sal&Z Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 (edited) It Looks Like it could be a tough one to find. It still pretty easy to spot CVC TAG from here but let me increase the magnification & resolution of the satellite so that all who are hunting this cache can get a better idea of where it may be located. Look very closely at all the clue(s) Now, go get it! . Edited January 29, 2005 by JEEPYSR Quote Link to comment
+Outrageous Fortunes Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 (edited) Thanks for the hint Jeepy. I finally found CVCTag in that horrible place! And thanks too, for that new AWESOME satellite photo resource. I backtracked your log and used it myself to capture the latest photo showing the location without CVCTag. Way kewl!

Great job, we really enjoyed the thought you put into each of these! This little section of the trail was very popular today. I'm glad you enjoyed it! We appreciate all of the feedback on the caches. (Good and bad!) I have one final cache placed on the trail that is not approved yet. I received word this morning that I need to move it a little bit as it was too close to one of the caches. I plan on doing that tomorrow and resubmitting it. They have REALLY been very fast at approving the caches. Again, we are glad you enjoyed yourselves today. It seemed to be a nice day to be caching!

I'd tell you but I don't want to over whelm the forum with my postings. LOL. 'Charter Members' are those of us that started caching during the first year and pay our membership fee's. It also indicates that we have posted into the forums for a rather long time. Now I'm going back to shutting up. Oh. Bad news guys...
