+pdxmarathonman Posted September 13, 2003 Posted September 13, 2003 You get excited when a new AOL CD comes in the little tin so you can paint it black and fill it with cache-cards. Of course the CD itself would be considered geo-trash. Quote

+yumitori Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 You arrange to meet your geocaching friends at a favorite restaurant, and have the coordinates on hand so they can find it. Ron/yumitori --- Remember what the dormouse said... Quote
Jamethiel Posted September 16, 2003 Posted September 16, 2003 Yumitori: And then spend the next morning and afternoon caching with them as it is fun to laugh at their caching ineptness. You know there are a few geogeeks in your town when: Every park has it's own cache, or is part of a multi and you can identify every drainage in the area with what cache/caches it contains. -Jennifer Age does not bring wisdom, but it does give perspective.
