+Dan-oh Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 I'll stop with the analogies just to keep it safe. One of my easier caches, the first I placed, was a new cachers first find ever. How cool is that! I sent him a short email welcoming him, directed him to the local forum and said I'd answer any questions. Ain't it great to see someone start up fresh? Quote
+tstar Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 That happened in my area recently. A new cacher had a FTF on his first cache. He didn't realize the significance until people started emailing him. It's a little competitive in our area with certain cachers. Tstar Quote
+Riddlers Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 Well, the question can also be asked, were they gentle when they found your first cache? Quote
+sept1c_tank Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 One of my caches served as the vehicle for a FTNF. Does that count? Quote
+SixDogTeam Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 My first find was the hiders first hide, and I was the FTF. uh-huh, uh-huh. Quote
+GentleWhisper Posted May 21, 2004 Posted May 21, 2004 No first cache stories... but after working hard on creating my first signature items. I was overly excited to see that my first one left was picked up by a first time geocacher... she seemed excited about it. Quote
+wray_clan Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 A guy searched for one of our caches as his first hunt ever...and he didn't find it. Quote
+bons Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 What a fun time. We took Jamie's sister and niece. This was their first cache and they had lots of fun. So much in fact that they went out and bought a GPSr so they can start caching on thier own. This one alone makes it all worthwhile. Quote

+Destitute Posted May 22, 2004 Posted May 22, 2004 Similar to this thread, the first cache we found just got archived. Its been slightly over a year now and the owners are moving away and disabled the caches they had out. Also, my wife has taken several people to this location to show them what caching was all about.

+CacheCreatures Posted May 23, 2004 Posted May 23, 2004 The first cache we ever found got a travel bug called "First Remember". Themed to help you remember your geocaching firsts. We went and got it. Ironically, it was our first bug. We then placed it in our first ever out-of-state cache. Phew. Quote

geojed Posted May 24, 2004 Posted May 24, 2004 On my first cache it was the ftf first cache and the second to find seconds cache Quote
