Old Timers


Recommended Posts

Hello, Ventura Kids! Nice to see you again.

 

I am still placing hamsters in caches, and tracking two as travel bugs. I will continue to do this until some newbie suggests that there ought to be a rule against leaving live animals in caches.

Come on Lep! I don't respect my own opinion any more after 100 finds, why should I play favorites with some newbie that logs TB's twice?

So, what you're saying is that I can't log Virtual Victor more than once?!?! Oops. icon_wink.gif

I guess I am an old timer myself now.

 

That brings me to the next question:

 

Is being an old timer a good thing or a bad thing?

Yes, it is....LOL.

Yeah, back in the day, we had to walk six miles to a cache, uphill both ways, barefoot, with 12 feet of snow on the ground, but we were thankful.

I really don't mind being a newbie in a sport where an "old timer" is less than two years. Kind of puts the newbie sniping thread in perspective LOL icon_wink.gif

If you want to go for a special 100th find...let me know. Me and my Evil Horde are known to put together some memberable 100th finds. It also entitles you to a special beer mug and and commemorative hiking staff! That is of course if you survive the hunt. icon_biggrin.gif

 

I don't know how to post a link, but check out...."The Centennial Celebration" and "Hell is Just Ahead."

Hey! Guess that I rank in there with the caching codgers! My game has been a bit off due to family relocation......

 

NOw I enjoy caching and clearing my own property...must be the pioneer woman in me icon_smile.gif

 

Speaking of pioneer...I havn't done a signature quilt in a long time...imagine a warm blankey signed by a slew of dashing cachers to take the edge off those aching codger bones!

I swore that I'd never post a reply on the "General Geocaching" forum a few months back. I said so in "I quit" and got flambede, I got tired of the whining and same-old-same-old.

I was showing the game to an Eastern European girl when I saw this thread. I keep most of my finds with a different name/number, that should kill the flames. I still use this account for benchmarks, talking to New England and miss the fun of the other old-timers. <big wave>
