+pdxmarathonman Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 Gosh I am barely into one decade and I get grouped in with some really old geezers as much as 19 years older I usually bring at least 1 and sometimes 3 caching partners that fall below the lowest poll selection, and another in her early 60's.

+Moore9KSUcats Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 This is very frustrating.. I am 44, my geocaching partner (husband) is 50, and the kids are 18, 15, and 10. It is rare that we cache without one or more kids. So, how do WE answer that survey? Quote Link to comment

GeoStars Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 The *senior* members of our team fall in two categories and the youngest aren't even included in the survey! Just for the record, it's 41,33,7,5,and 2. And except for the 2yo, all are actively involved in the hunt one way or another, whether it's manning the GPS, poking through the leaves with a stick, or mapping out the best route to the general geocache location.

Buckaroo Banzai Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 The Hong Kong Cavaliers and I , are well into the old geezers side of the house. I'm 43, New Jersey's 50, Penny Priddy's (I could tell you, but she would kill me ) the rest are just about as old as dirt. 85 degrees and I'm at the keyboard If it's not one thing, then it's another...

+RAD Dad Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I think the age spans are way off here. There is a HUGE difference between say a guy in his early 20's and one in his late 20's or early thirties. (a lot of guys in thier early 20's still aren't much more mature than they were in thier late teens. ) ummmm....not sure what to say here....so ummm, well errrr, uhhhh, well I guess that's it.

Tahosa and Sons Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Why do us "Old Ones" walk so Slow. It's so we won't forget so Fast. As I've heard it - "Old Age and Treachery will overcome Youth and Skill any Day of the Week". Remember we learned to walk in the woods and find our way out before these new-fangled gadgets came out.
