+Team Perrito Blanco Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I have off too. I was hoping to get out. Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 (edited) If I'm off, I'm there! Unless I'm skiing. Edited January 9, 2005 by briansnat Link to comment
+Squealy Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 I'm good to go - what were you thinking about hitting? The knee is not doing too great - but I should definitely be able to bang out a few hours with you guys. Otherwise, I'm gonna head out on the Island if you guys are interested in a change of pace.

avroair Posted January 10, 2005 Author Share Posted January 10, 2005 I am thinking about hitting Melvin's. Link to comment
+lavarock1 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 ooo-ooooo...can I go too ? As long as you dont go to any high mountains... I can meet you guys anywhere up there after 7 am. Link to comment
+Quoddy Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 (edited) Low Tide 7:48 am. Looks like you have a 7:15 am meet at the Start point. Good Luck! Edited January 10, 2005 by Quoddy Link to comment
+Team Perrito Blanco Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 (edited) What are you, a masochist!? Hehe. I don't think I want to go out and get wet in January. Is this the one you want for your 700th cache? Edited January 10, 2005 by Team Perrito Blanco Link to comment
+Squealy Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 I am thinking about hitting Melvin's. Looks like you're throwing down the gauntlet. Can we hit a few before it? And what gear do I need? Link to comment
+briansnat Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 And what gear do I need? Hip boots or waders would be a good idea, but I did it wearing my hiking boots and a pair of waterproof gaiters. If you have FRS radios they could come in handy, but that's all you really need. Link to comment
avroair Posted January 10, 2005 Author Share Posted January 10, 2005 Low tide at 7:51 AM - NOT 1:42 PM, that would be HIGH TIDE M 17 High 1:25 AM 5.0 7:17 AM Set 12:23 AM 46 17 Low 7:51 AM 0.4 4:58 PM Rise 11:25 AM 17 High 1:42 PM 4.5 17 Low 8:00 PM 0.1 Link to comment
avroair Posted January 10, 2005 Author Share Posted January 10, 2005 Maybe the 22nd or 23rd would be better? Jan 22 Low 12:24 PM 0.1 5:03 PM Rise 2:20 PM Jan 23 Low 1:08 PM 0.0 Link to comment

+dhenninger Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 (edited) Can't you get up early if you have the day off???? I'm in for MLK day Dave I can bring FRS Radios for anyone that needs one (I have 4). Edited January 11, 2005 by dhenning25 Link to comment
avroair Posted January 11, 2005 Author Share Posted January 11, 2005 No. I have to drop my wife off at work. Unless I get a ride of course Link to comment
+dhenninger Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 If you need a ride, just ask I'll pick you up at 6:00a Dave Link to comment
avroair Posted January 11, 2005 Author Share Posted January 11, 2005 If you need a ride, just askI'll pick you up at 6:00a Which parking lot?!!! Well I can't guarantee you will be able to log a cache at my house this time, but 6 am sounds cool. We can meet at the parking coordinates at 7:00 am Link to comment
+Team Shibby Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 I just might be able to join you for this one... I'll keep my eyes on this thread for further details. It sure would be nice to see everyone again! Kar Link to comment

avroair Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 Nah, it is only an event if we gather for the specific purpose of NOT hunting for caches. Besides you can brag at the Anonymous meeting instead. Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 I may join you guys as well - let me know if you are going (or Avro - if you're dropping your wife off at work, lemme know since you're right in my neck of the woods). Link to comment
avroair Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 We are meeting at 7 a.m. at the suggested parking coordinates. The cache should take 3-4 hours to complete, with the opportunity to see Squealy play in the mud. There are a bunch of other caches in the area which will seem tame after this one! Link to comment
+Squealy Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 It is Monday - the 17th - MLK. If I am correct. If you all behave, perhaps I will have a special suit for the mud. Link to comment
avroair Posted January 14, 2005 Author Share Posted January 14, 2005 (edited) Put your clothes back on Neil, no one wants to see your 'special suit' Edit: 7 a.m. on the 17th is correct. Meet at the parking coordinates. Edited January 14, 2005 by avroair Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Odds of finding the cache and staying dry in freezing weather I'll be there....7:00am Monday with waders, snowshoes, mask, and snorkel. Link to comment
+Squealy Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Odds of finding the cache and staying dry in freezing weather You're a sick, sick man. However, it IS an interesting link! Link to comment
+macatac1961 Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Odds of finding the cache and staying dry in freezing weather So what are the odds of getting out alive with the smiley? I guess we're gonna find out on Monday... hope to see you then. Link to comment

+Team Perrito Blanco Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 This is from a newsletter I get: For Immediate Release: Contact: Peter Boger January 13, 2005 (609) 984-1795 Photo Opportunity **Week of January 17** DEP TO DEPLOY TANKER ON ARTIFICIAL REEF SITE (HARVEY CEDARS) --- Next week, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) will sink a decommissioned navy tanker on the state's Garden State North artificial reef site. The precise date and time of the sinking will be dependent upon weather and availability of a tugboat. DEP will be launching a boat for press to film the sinking of the ship. If you are interested in sending a photographer or cameraman, contact the DEP press office. Final scheduling decisions will be determined 24 hours in advance. We will notify you of the precise launch time and location. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - This message has been sent by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection.

shanni-bugbait-wren Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Well, unfortuately, we can't attend this one. Maybe we'll try to get another one together for those of us who HAVE TO WORK MLk day. Anyhoo, have a great time and we'll eventually be able to come to one of these gatherings. But, They seem to be very popular on Wednesday nights. (I work til 7). Link to comment
avroair Posted January 16, 2005 Author Share Posted January 16, 2005 (edited) We are on! Meeting at 7:00 a.m. - at the suggested parking coordinates. Just went out and bought some shiny new hip waders!!! Wife thought it was hilarious me wiggling around the store trying to put them on. Edited January 16, 2005 by avroair Link to comment
+macatac1961 Posted January 16, 2005 Share Posted January 16, 2005 Hey Mark, I spoke too soon. I also have to work Monday. Hope you have a good time and I'll see you on future hunts. Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 I'm out for tomorrow. Both kids are sleeping over friends houses - so I'm facing the difficult choice of sleeping late with my wife in an otherwise empty house, or slogging through a swamp in below-freezing temps. Hmmmmmm...... Good luck guys - I look forward to reading your Find logs...... Link to comment
marty621 Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Hart, Sounds like a no-brainer to me...................so your going caching? Link to comment

avroair Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 (edited) 5:34 a.m. Not sure if I have ever been awake this early other than coming home from somewhere, getting up to catch a plane or when I have jetlag. (I start work at 10 a.m. so I get up at 8 a.m.) Went over my 1000th post is that a milestone? Edited January 17, 2005 by avroair Link to comment
+HartClimbs Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Hart, Sounds like a no-brainer to me...................so your going caching? Much as I enjoy Marty's caches..... I passed on today's tidal marsh escapades.... Another day my friend! Link to comment
