lifeispunny Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 Wow! For the first time I'm not the youngest of the group! I'm 27 and just started.
Ellison Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 I just started geocaching on Sunday, so am really new! And I'm 24.
+Traveling Wildabeasts Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 Well, if you add all of our ages together.. We're 99!!! YAHOO!!!! Ok, so thats a total.. 34 38 11 10 6 The kids get a HUGE kick out of it... T.W.
+Fubie Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 I'm 33 my wife is 34 and my kids are 7 and 6. Can't remember the ages of my 2 dogs...caninecachers!!!
+Cache Viking Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 45 or at least this summer I will be. figure it will be here soon enough so why hide from it.
+Ladycacher Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 I just turned 26 in April. My husband will be 28 on Monday. My sons are 4 (in July) and 7. My 7 year old works his own GPS unit and actually finds most of the Geocaches......he MUST have great eyes to beat out mom everytime!
RexBloodman Posted May 18, 2005 Posted May 18, 2005 Can we add a poll at the top of this thread? Then we could see the percentages of the ages.
sdveirs Posted May 19, 2005 Posted May 19, 2005 Myself - 35daughter - 8 (with her own gps) Great idea on giving them their own GPS. I bet they can learn alot about it that way. BTW - I am 37. Just got started. If everyone seems like adults, why are the caches kids toys?
+ohgrl Posted May 19, 2005 Posted May 19, 2005 Well it depends on when you ask me or who you ask...most of the time I have lied about my age so much even *I* forget how old I am According to my birth certificate I am 36...according to me I am 29...most of my friends and co-workers swear that I am 15 (at least I act that way they say...)
+Boot Group Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 40, 36, 8, 5. The 8 year old finds most of the caches.
+Scook Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 ...Please don't misinterpret my age range, I'm not saying 35 to 50 is "being old"! I think your old when you stop moving!!! lol... I'm 57 and I thought those cachers over 60 were the older bunch.
+papatom2 Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 (edited) Myself and my wife are 63. Been Geocaching for one years now. The old guys are the ones over 70! Edited May 21, 2005 by papatom2
+Siberian Cacher Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 35, 37, 7 and 5.... throw in the dog at 2 years!!
sdveirs Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 Well it depends on when you ask me or who you ask...most of the time I have lied about my age so much even *I* forget how old I am According to my birth certificate I am 36...according to me I am 29...most of my friends and co-workers swear that I am 15 (at least I act that way they say...) Were in the same boat. 37 = real age 26 = feel age 19 = act age LOL - however when it comes down to it, I can act my real age...if I HAVE TO. LOL. And during work I act at least 26. Scott
Stony2008 Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 15 now and i started when i was 14. Am i the youngest geocacher that geocaches without a parent
+Kidatheart Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 34, wife 35 whoops 29, yes 29 that's the right answer kids are 5 and 3
+Team HHD1 Posted May 22, 2005 Author Posted May 22, 2005 Well here are the weekly numbers calculated for your viewing pleasure... We have 11979 years over 363 people for an average of 33 years exactly. This seems to be fluctuating around early thirties... I know there are folks out there over 33 who cache! Let me hear from You!!! lol... Keep Caching Safely!!!
+GeoTeam Maggi Posted May 22, 2005 Posted May 22, 2005 I'm 40. My Team (family) members are 37, 12, and 8. I was at an event cache of 45 people tonight and 75% or better were older than me.
fishiam Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 The fishiam crew span several decades: 46, 38, 13, 10, 9, 2. The others' nicks are little "i", ildiko, geokilt, Miss K and *pixie* but I'm not saying who is which age. peace, fishiam
+Joypa Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 The Joy part of the team is 50. The Pa (Paul) part of the team is 52.
+Connect4 Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 I'm 34, my geocaching partner is 35, our kids are 7 and 4 and we all love it. I never thought of myself in the "older" age range. Kinda scarey, I still feel 16 (would love to look 16 still, actually, come to think of it, I've improved since I've been 16, so nevermind that...)
+hellifiknow Posted May 28, 2005 Posted May 28, 2005 You're only as old as you feel, so I'm 90. I always thought it depending on who was doing the feeling...
+dinotodd Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 I am 37 and have trouble remembering that. Still feel much younger. Spouse is 40, daughter is 12 and son is 7. My mom who is 75 went with me today and climbed on some rocks!!! Apparently she doesn't know about the old people group either.
+Cal78 Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 I'm 27, but if i cut my goatee and mustach, id pass for 18
+The Penguinz Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 I'm 35 and Mrs. Penguin is 33. She looks young and I act immature. So...what's age any way?
TKEON230 Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 Hey everybody, I don't quite know if I count as a geocacher yet because I haven't started. I expect to get my GPS in the mail this week and be on my way to starting an exciting new hobby. I feel like I'm in the minority, though because I'm only 22.
+2ofHis Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 First post here, folks! I'm 50, 51 on July 4th; the missus will be 53 the end of August, and we LOVE this sport. We got started 4-8-05.
AZcachemeister Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 Currently 'averaging' 50. Some days I feel like I'm 75, some days I act like I'm 25!
