Tools... We all have them. We all use them. Some tools, such as tweezers get a whole lot of use. Others, like (in my case) the stick-borne mirror, don't get used all that much. Some caches need them, others do not. Of course, not all of mine are pictured. My trusty maglight is still in … Continue reading Tool Of The Trade Question… →

Frozen birdbaths and covered plants! Brrr!!! So I have no doubt that a lot of you, specifically those of you who live in the northerly latitudes, are going to laugh at me but Austin froze over yesterday. There was a chance of snow, but it didn't materialize. It snowed out in the Hill Country, though. … Continue reading I Love A Challenge! →

We watched sixteen short films from around the globe; a couple from Spain, a couple from Slovakia, Brazil, Germany, Switzerland, Australia, several from the good old US of A, and others. And while we were at it, there … Continue reading Geocaching International Film Festival 2019 →

And, of course, deeper into the woods are any number (60-ish) more … Continue reading Sometimes I Like Nature… →

There is a very large and popular greenbelt in Austin that has a whole bunch of caches in it, enough that there's actually a challenge devoted to finding ones in this specific greenbelt (there's around 60 or so). I decided to have … Continue reading A Tale Of Two Caches →

A couple of days ago I went out to a local greenbelt to grab a daily cache. I figured that a 1.5/1.5 near a trail head would be simple to grab so I could get on with my day. Boy, was I wrong. I get to the GZ and what do I find? Not only … Continue reading Sometimes I Hate Nature… →

No, not the documentary about the sad men who make up the world's most famous metal band. For Halloween, I slayed a Monster. As the photo demonstrates, it's a 40-stage multicache, requiring over 100 miles of travel to achieve. I've been working on this one in bits and pieces for almost the entire time I've … Continue reading Some Kind Of Monster →
