Hey Snoogans,

I know that Beaumont man that you speak of. He was the person responsible for my addiction :lol: , but what a great thing to be addicted to!

Thanks Peanuts!!! :(

I am almost as old as Snoogans Mother. I will be 79 in April. After a day long hunt yesterday I now have 426. Up until last fall, I found most of these solo. I am a slow walker and sometimes it takes me three tries to find a cache. I was able to pick up 60 on a trip from Bremerton Washington to the East Coast which took three weeks. Most of these were easy rest stop caches or virtuals. Made the trip much more interesting. Lately I have been geocaching with Ajetpilot who is willing to slow down and also listen to all my "war stories". More enjoyable and efficent.

I do my homework and carry a cell phone when caching solo. I would urge all interested seniors to get off their duff and enjoy geocaching. Dick, W7WT

Yea Granny goes out Benchmarking with me ever once in a while she is 88.

 

The cold weather has her in right now but we like hunting around them Old Ghost towns,dumps and relic shops.

 

Helps me to keep her busy and out and about.

 

Oh by the way she is in the process of making a hand sewn CITO QUILT.

Even has a frog to go with it. :lol:

That is way to cool Trailblazer !

woof is 60

lulu is 55

 

Neither of us is likely to set land speed record for caching...but it gets us off our butts....

My mom likes to go, she loves to watch my sisters kids finding the caches. We did a cache in her honor of her 75 birthday.

But wait that's not all!!!

Last month some bimbo t-boned her Explorer an totaled it. She walked away, I saw her yesterday and she said her neck hurt a little but other than that she was Okay. What can you say about somebody who lived through the dust bowl, the great depression, and a world war. She does like her new Tarus, this is the first time she has ever had a car as a daily driver, she always had a truck, manual shift. Even after the joint replacments. :lol:
