My 72 day cache streak is over.

I had to work a swim meet yesterday morning and then I went to a color guard competition at West High School. I could have probably hit Not Corvallis Oregon as I drove down Ashe, but I decided not too. I am done getting one a day.

There are almost no caches between Vista West High School and Taft anymore and it was kind of turning into a chore. So the streak is finished at 72 consecutive days in a row of at least finding one cache. It was fun and it was good for my numbers, but now it is over.… Continue

I almost quit Geocaching today.

RMJD #2: Asian Experience, On Lock Down, and Taft Light Pole Multi Cache. All muggled by some means or another.

The other day I saw some survey markers at If ya lived in Taft... and I wondered how long it might be. I blew it off and kept driving.

To my horror today as I was driving home and sure enough, the area had been scraped over with a grader. I got out and looked and the cache was missing, but it might have been burried. I walked back to the car to get the GPS since I couldn't tell exact… Continue

I am setting up our new website.

There is nothing better than having a cold one, watching the Super Bowl, procrastinating real work, and working on the new KCC website.

Thanks for the heads up on this one. I watched the trailer and it looked like a fun movie so I added it to my Netflix list.

I have too much going on next weekend.

That was a great link Jack. I think we can all agree TFTC logs are about the worst as a cache owner. I want to know more about your experience. So at Geocacher University, they encourage you to use the 4 T's in writing a cache log. Trip, Traps, Tr...

Actually, it looks like most of the caches are to the east in the hills by Ocotillo and Salton City. Definitely a lot of caches out that way. That would be a good place to have a motorcycle or a 4WD.

A bunch of caches!!

Watched a couple of Huell Howser programs last weekend. A half-hour program on Anza-Borrego Desert State Park and a half-hour program on Borrego Springs a town that is surrounded by the park. Since we are going to be only a couple of hours from t...

Me thinks that those of which we voice our complaints seldom if ever pass into this realm. But if one or two of them might stumble or lurch into this site perhaps they might be persuaded to check out this link: http://geocacher-u.com/content/view...

Dual Wings replied to Hedge's discussion 'DualWings goes DualCentury'

Thanks for the recognition Hedge, its been a long time coming. As you can tell, it is not a numbers game for me, I just enjoy the sport. It took me years just to get my first to find. Many of the caches my wife and I have found are truly memorable...

Hedge replied to Hedge's discussion 'Classic Logs.'

This one's a construction, but you get the idea: "We found this one after some pretty heavy duty bushwhacking. To make it easier for the next finder, we chopped out all vegetation 30 feet around the cache. We felled two large trees that might be ...

Some of the facepalm logs reflect greed: ".....Took the travel bug and will move it west this weekend. Left 6 cents." "I stopped on my way home from work, so I didn't have anything to leave. Took the blue "Merlin Magician". Next time I gone in t...

Yeah a cut and paste log is about worthless. You might as well just go all the way and defecate in the container while you are at it. On cache runs I will cut and paste, but that is my daily synopsis at the bottom of my specific comment for each c...

DualWings goes DualCentury

Just a gratz out to DualWings as he gets #200 at GC1VF4R - Camp Hamilton Fighting Hole! A hard fought find (maybe not gratifying, but congratulations-worthy). Truly a 4-star, and proving it could be done. Keep up the good caching DW!
