arvensis Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Hi all, On the way back from an appointment yesterday I had my GPSr with me so I thought I would find a cache that was on the route. I had a pen with me, found the cache easy enough, went to write my log entry only to find my pen had run out! There was one with the log tried that but no joy! Moral of the story- always have a spare pen with you! At least I know what to leave at the cache when I go back to log it! Mark Quote Link to comment
+Pengy&Tigger Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 (edited) There are ways and means of making your mark other than a pen! try dipping a stick in the mud and scrawling your initials in the logbook, or using a muddy thumbprint. You can always explain your strange log when you log the cache online. T Edited March 15, 2005 by Pengy&Tigger Quote Link to comment

+aRRKS Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 We had to leave a muddy thumbprint once as well. 'K' tried to persuade me to get out of the car, in the pouring rain over the walkie talkie, to bring him a pen. I tried to persuade him to cut his thumb and leave a signature that way - the mud won!
