+yorelken Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 I didn't think I was old until I read the ages of all these geocachers. I'm now 61 (soon to be 62). I was depressed until I realized I'm doing what all these youngsters do. I'm talking only about geocaching, of course. Maybe us oldies should start a Senior Division. Quote Link to comment

GrandpaCannon Posted August 27, 2002 Share Posted August 27, 2002 Well, I'm 36 and my son who accompanies me sometimes is 13. That gives us an average of 24.5. On the other hand I sometimes walk across the campus of BYU where I attended in the 80's and think I recognize students. Then I realize that I probably don't since my old classmates are as old as I am. Quote Link to comment
