+Treasure Hunting Family Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 We'll be at the Meet N Eat See ya there. Funny Story to tell we were GEOCACHING IN INDIANA at Muncie to see the maze. We finished the maze and was enjoying the gift shop. I heard Fred talking with some people. I peeked out and say Hiya. Fred introduced Jeremiah and me. The next thing I hear is Oh Is that Jeremiah with the coins? We are still laughing out it. Jeremiah said Wow I'm famous. Quote Link to comment

Cancer counts indicate that the cancer is slowly coming back but she is not scheduled to go back to DR till January. the cancer is still relatively low/just registering on the radar but still higher than it was early this spring when we stopped treatments for a well deserved break. I pray that it is slow growing. We assume it is. Also pray that assuming treatment starts in January that it works again and beats it back down.

I have never heard such a bunch of CARP in my life !!!! DOG fighting is purely an EVIL practice ... And there is also not much of a comparision in that they are trying to make it the same as deer hunting .. SCUSE ME ! .... I am not a big advocate of hunting either but I do know the forking Differance between Dog Fighting and Hunting ..... *sorry for this breif inturruption , I really like doggies ... geocaching ones , well all of them * A Dog is always there for his "family" .....

DJ Lost Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Greetings from Kokomo, IN! I am Brand Spanking new to the Geo Cache Hunt. Two guys I work with started about a month ago and both bought their GPS devices before starting to hunt. I on the other hand just started and have yet to buy a GPS since they are so expensive... I had a fun time finding my first cache with my 3 year old daughter. The best I can do so far is to enter the coordinates into Google Earth and see "About" where the cache is then go looking for it blindly. It is still great fun, just will be 5 or 6 months before I can afford a cheap gps. If you are ever in the Kokomo area, Hit one of us up. I wouldn't mind tagging along on a hunt to see how it is done the right way. L8r, DJ Lost Quote Link to comment

hide & seekers Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 (edited) Hey everyone! Haven't posted in a long time, but here's the bad and the good. July 11, 2007, we lost our German Shepherd Zoe-dog who loved to go caching because it meant going for a ride and a walk! She lived a good life and was doing very well until she because suddenly ill. After 5 days and a diagnosis of liver failure, I chose to let her go. She was just shy of 13 years old. Zoe's last cache was in November of last year. July 21, 2007, I couldn't stand a dog-less house (although the cat enjoyed it) and found a new little girl. I fell in love with her on sight and so did my hubby. The hubby and I brought her home to test her out, and she never left! We named her Morgan and she's now about 8-1/2months old and is part black lab/German Shepherd/mountain goat/woodchuck. She found her first geocaching this weekend while we were in Pennsylvania. A big thank you to one of our local adoption agencies PetsConnect.org for giving us joy again. I found Morgan through PetFinder.com which links animal shelters and adoption agencies. Here's a photo of the new girl. Eat your heart out Patrick!

DJ Lost Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Greetings to all again, I took the plunge this weekend and bought a Magellan eXplorist 400. This is my first GPS device and now I am learning to use it. Thanks to all those who wrote me to suggest where I could find an affordable unit, your help is greatly appreciated. I can now strike out on my own searches instead of following others. Thanks again! Lost Quote Link to comment

Not sure what I'll do when he finally goes. I just wish he liked car rides. Always gets sick. So, he's a stay at home dog. Glad you found someone else to join your family. Best wishes for a long, fun and happy life together. Quote Link to comment
+Cpt.Blackbeard Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 hide & seekers that is a fine looking new friend you have there, I salute you. DJ Lost, glad to hear you almost have a GPSr now. When you get a Garmin your journey to the darkside will be complete. Now, WOOHOO, my new toys arrived today. Out of curiosity mostly I ordered one of the new large pelican cases and the three pack of lock-n-locks from Groundspeak along with a couple of micro cases and some assorted knick-knacks. The pelican case sure looks nice but at $24.00 I'll have to find a spot worthy of it, just sticking it under a log with some sticks piled on it won't do. Since I'm not incredibly creative it may take me awhile to think up the perfect hide for it, suggestions welcomed. Quote Link to comment
