+CYBret Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Maybe I'm feeling a big morbid today, but I got to thinking while I was taking a walk today: If you were to design a cache hunt around your final resting place (with instructions in your will to be carried out by responsible cache-buddies), what would it be like? Would it be just a visit to your grave, would the cache box be built into the stone, what would you want people to take/leave? Hmmmmmmm . . what are the possibilities? Bret Quote Link to comment
+Markwell Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 I'd rather have some of my ashes placed in a sealed hollow steel ball about the size of marble with a eyelet attached. Then I can be converted into a Travel Bug, suitable for roaming the world's caches. I think I'd call it: Hamlet: Act 1, Scene 4 quote:Thou comest in such a questionable shape That I will speak to thee: I'll call thee Hamlet, King, father, royal Dane: O, answer me! Let me not burst in ignorance; but tell Why thy canonized bones, hearsed in death, Have burst their cerements; why the sepulchre, Wherein we saw thee quietly inurn'd, Hath oped his ponderous and marble jaws, To cast thee up again. What may this mean, That thou, dead corse, again in complete steel Revisit'st thus the glimpses of the moon, Making night hideous; and we fools of nature So horridly to shake our disposition With thoughts beyond the reaches of our souls? Say, why is this? wherefore? what should we do? Markwell My Geocaching Page [This message was edited by Markwell on April 09, 2002 at 02:38 PM.] Quote Link to comment
Myra Mit Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 How about dividing up your cremains (ashes) among several small bottles and attaching travel bugs to them? That would let you visit a lot of those caches you didn't make it to while you were alive. Quote Link to comment

+geospotter Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Unfortunately, Markwell's bug seems to be stuck in a Georgia crematorium along with several hundred other "I am the travel bugs". (Sorry, I couldn't help myself.) Quote Link to comment
ShibaScott Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Maybe a good excuse for burying this particular cache. Quote Link to comment
