I use multi-million dollar satellites to find pieces of Tupperware!

In Search Of New Counties?

A buddy of mine created a series of caches with an interesting conceit: they're all Multis, each dedicated to a different fictional Texas county, mostly from literature. He was inspired when he ran across a county-counting website that counted only 253 of the 254 counties in Texas. He wanted to find that missing county and … Continue reading In Search Of New Counties? →

A Different Aim

It's been a weekend of Events for me. Saturday, I went to an Event to celebrate both a milestone and the anniversary of a caching couple. Toward the end, a few cachers and I (specifically Kittydcota, Krissy4884, and friend of the blog Razorbackgirl) popped away to grab a few caches in a nearby cemetery. This … Continue reading A Different Aim →

Sometimes You Get The Bull…

I got off work and, as I am wont to do, I headed out to get a cache for the day. My first attempt was a bust, but forgivable. I just couldn't find that D3/T5 in that tree. As we all know, it happens. The second attempt fared no better. I'm pretty sure it was … Continue reading Sometimes You Get The Bull… →

On Location

A couple of nights ago, I was out of town on grounds I rarely stomp. I ran down to San Marcos for dinner with some caching friends. It wasn't an Event or anything. We just gathered to talk about some stuff and things and preparations for [REDACTED]. I ended up being unexpectedly early because traffic … Continue reading On Location →

I Sat Down And Wept

Saturday, I went out for a cache. Obviously, I found one. It was pretty disappointing, a plastic baggie containing a broken key box and a log in a hole in a tree. It was so crappy I specifically opted not to photograph it. I have often said (and still frequently say) that a cache is … Continue reading I Sat Down And Wept →

Two Birds, One Stone

A couple of days ago, a series of challenge caches dropped, planted by the one and only Buckandi. They were interesting in that he placed them based on challenge difficulty. For those of you who do not spend a lot of time with Project-GC (if you like numbers, you should), one of the many things … Continue reading Two Birds, One Stone →

I Get By With A Little Help…

I'll have you know that I am the proud recipient of the newest souvenirs of the Wheel of Challenges, the ones for Favorite Fan. Getting the Easy one was, well, easy. I would have gotten that one regardless. A cache a day for ten days would accomplish that. Getting the Hard one was, well, unexpected. … Continue reading I Get By With A Little Help… →

Psychology or Mysticism?

I'm going to tell you a secret: this weekend, I was pretty unmotivated. Sure, yesterday I went and found a cache, but Saturday, I just didn't have it in me. I logged a challenge and called it a day. Most of the time, I enjoy getting out there on the hunt, but some days I … Continue reading Psychology or Mysticism? →

Those Meddling Kids!

Credit where credit is due: my cache yesterday was pretty good. Good enough to earn one of my stingily hoarded favorite points. It was also a lot closer to home than expected. I had been saving this one for quite a while, but yesterday was the time, especially since I had to abort two other … Continue reading Those Meddling Kids! →

Thanks, Dave!

Yes, I attended a rare Monday CITO.  Unlike last time, it was much less demanding.  After rain and high wind the previous week, I surmise that much of the trash we might have picked up was long gone.  I had to go pretty far afield to manage a third of a bag, and I ended … Continue reading Thanks, Dave! →
