Cache-cadians

[+Patudles]

Goodness Gracious, whats a gal to do? I go away for a weekend of a funeral, meetings and a little caching squeezed in between plus putting a few more miles on the car for more DeLorme pages, and come back to my name being bandied back and forth and all sorts of idle gossip.

 

Facts: Yup, the troopers came to check me out while I was night caching all alone. Isn't that nice of them to be watching out for me like that?

 

Thanks to Robinego, Nav, Gadget, and Ambrosia I was able to cache my way home in the dark. Having no cache pages or hints just the coords on my GPSr. it was great having the home lines open for help and company when I got a little lonely and spooked out. I am glad I had a mapping program for getting me home because I have no idea of where I was when I quit.

 

Now as for the all this hoopala about the misses. You guys are toooo funny. Love the way you come up with your conclusions. So far I see no proof in the pudding as far as who any of them are. Gadget, your call on Miss Contrary seems to be your eyes playing tricks on you. Contrary to what you think you saw, you may have been seeing things. Nav, you are so sure that I am Miss Innocent, but am I really? As for the other miss, well now, seems logical but who really knows?

Tomorrow night is the long awaited for night. Don't forget to read the newspaper, Wednesday, November 23, to see if you were quoted.

[+Patudles]

Yea, the first snowdroplets, coming down right now.

[+Barnabirdy(s)]

We'll try to find the Wenatchee World article on line, in case we fail will someone save it and bring to the 11th event? BTW, is that still happening??

Snowdroplets? Is that like Rainflakes?

Yup, Yup, watch for details soon and I will save you an paper.

 

Gene, you better start logging all those caches you said you found. Or were you just pretending to be Nav?

[+Blue J Wenatchee]

Great story in the paper tonight. Good job to everyone that worked on it. It should increase the number of people out there that want to start caching.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!

 

May you eat lots of turkey and sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie, then work it all off by going out and hiding a cache or two.

[+Mr. Gadget #2]

We all have found hidden caches, some have found hidden coordinates, now we may have a new one to find "HIDDEN LOGS"

Hmmm. Mr Gadget. A few days ago I recall you were approaching 600 finds. Todays newspaper reports you now having over 1300 finds. At that pace, you will be passing Moun10bike by the end of the year.

[+g-people]

oh great, another puzzle coming "hidden logs". If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, right!? I am just glad there are still local hides to find (hint, hint) that are too hard (nav)! Boy Ambrosia and family is famous these days...maybe we could get her autograph at the event next month. But would she sign it Miss Contrary? Maybe she can find the g-people an avatar!

 

Happy Thanksgiving all! Hopefully I can con my family into working off some of that tryptophan on the wetside!

Ah shucks, 3400 finds are peanuts I am going for all of the marbles... "216788".

[+The Navigatorz]

I just got the news that Mr. and Mrs. Gadget #2 reached milestone #600. And they reached it in 10 months. They found it at Windmills Cache (GC917F).

 

Way to Go Gadgets!!

[+Patudles]

Congratulations on #600 MrGadget#2. Keep it up.

Congrats to The Gadgets! Happy Thanksgiving to all. A little lake I know, but She who must be obeyed and I were in Guadalajara for 11 days. Had Thanksgiving dinner at 10 PM at a place called el Santo Coyote. Very cool. No turkey and gravy to be seen though. The only thing we really missed about Thanksgiving was the leftovers. OK, I guessed we missed the kids too. Came back to culture shock and weather shock. And a bunch of new caches to find... Once the snow melts I guess. I guess I can work on that G-people puzzle. At first glance, I'm stumped, but we'll see where it goes. If everybody else found it, I guess I should be able to do it too!

[+Mr. Gadget #2]

wheew!!! You had us concerned. It sure has been mortaly quiet in your corner. Glad to hear that you were doing the proper wifey thing.

[+g-people]

Congrats to the Gadgets and Regrets to your vehicle! Looks like you have put on the miles!

 

So now that we have snow, what does one do to satisfy the geo-cache addiction?

Haven't youu heard of Snow / Ice Caching? I'm gearing up. Getting the snowmobiles out and ready. Going to hit the mountains to hide a few caches for you to find. The kind you have to find before spring as they will self destruct when it gets to warm out.

I just thought of a new type of snow cache. Go out and hide a regular cache under some snow. Plant a trans/reciever in the cache. Post the coords at a location some 50 meters away and then use another tran./reciever to locate and dig up the cache. This would be a fun thing for an event type of cache.

[+g-people]

I do hope you are kidding! That sounds as crazy as snow camping

[+The Navigatorz]

An idea I have is I go out and hide empty ammo cans and post the coordinates. Everyone else goes out with their gps, finds the containers and fills them with presents and money for me. Then I go out and collect them all. Kind of a great way to combine geocaching with the Christmas spirit of giving.

[+Mr. Gadget #2]

Oh what a neat idea of hiding empty ammo cans. I just happen to know where there are a whole bunch of Christmas stickings that were full of coal. "and No they are not mine"

[+g-people]

I have a better idea! Let's all come up with a math puzzle that Navz can't figure out!

 

Really, I am starting to have serious withdrawals....is there a list of local snow friendly caches somewhere? Otherwise I might have to spend the winter thinking of some good evil monkey caches to hide. Hmmmmm.

[+Mr. Gadget #2]

Oh brother you had better be careful. I do recall seeing a real doozie in the forums a while back of a math problem he threw out and scared the living be-jees out of us.

You need to go back and look through the old forums. You know the Nav is a big guy, kind a like a sleeping volcano. totaly harmless until the word math is thought or breathed...... and then he comes rumlbing back to life.

Go ahead. Make my day.

I already have a list the length of my arm that I need to get to, don't make come out of hibernation and hurt you!

[+g-people]

oH shoot! I didn't mean to stir stuff up Maybe we should be the sassy people instead of the g-people

 

I would really like to get to 200 some day but it seems I choose caches to go after that are buried in snow these days. Any suggestions?

[+Allanon]

Come on over here...we have lots of Lamp Post Micros you can find...Oh wait, they're under snow right now too...better wait a couple days.

Wooohooo! Go eastsiders! We need to get out and cache for Decembers cache of the month.

[+Mr. Gadget #2]

I believe that I have found 6-10 caches this month and all but one is less than one year old. Now I have the problem to nonimnate which one. Open for bribes or a real nice X-mas present

[+The Navigatorz]

I think Panorama 2 cache is worthy. Now, who was it that helped you with your PDA and loc files?

[+Ambrosia]

Ok, I got my pics loaded up on the event page, and the 65 roses cache. Check them out if you want.

[+WeightMan]

Already been nominated

 

[+The Navigatorz]

Hey cool!! Thanks RWW for the nomination. Glad you enjoyed it.

Woke up this morning and logged into the site and who did I see on the Banner?

None other than the adorable....Patudles in the snow no less!

Congrats to the BARNABIRDY(s) for going over 2000 cache finds.

Congrats to Robinego for passing 800! Way to go girl. you are making it hard for me to catch up.

[+Ambrosia]

Congrats to all the milestones that have been happening lately.

[+The Navigatorz]

Congratulations Barnabirdy(s) and Robinego.

 

I remember once seeing Barnabirdy(s) in my rear view mirror. Now they have passed me and are clear out of sight. Now I see Robinego and Gadget in my rear view mirror and they are gaining fast. I might have to drop a few nails on the road behind me.

[+Ambrosia]

I don't have anything to worry about. I'm being passed constantly.

[+g-people]

Congrats to all! Now get out there hiding some nice winter friendly caches so we can at least make it to 200! Oh yeah and kid friendly, and mini-van friendly and.......

Ok, just hid a kid friendly and van friendly cache, but its not so mind friendly. You guys made my last puzzle cache "Simple Arithmetic" look easy. You're going to have to get your mind in "GEAR" for the next one.

[+Mr. Gadget #2]

It's really pretty easy to solve, once you see the formula:

Gosh Nav, I thought this one was burried for good!
