Just what the title says... This was a nice little cache, worthy of note but stuck in a weird place, along a walking trail with no parking to speak of. The closest parking was a school, and, because of the time of day, that was not a wise place to do so. I ended up … Continue reading Another Day, Another Cache →

I hadn't intended to spend a weekend with the dead, but it happened. My Saturday plan was to go work on some Geoart that I had started but never finished, but I ended up oversleeping. Instead of getting up around dawn and working the back roads, I ended up rolling out of bed closer to … Continue reading Noticing Stones →

There is a concept in software that an application can be "free as in beer," meaning something is given with no cost, or "free as in speech," meaning users are at liberty to use, alter, and dispose of it as they see fit. For the most part, I think of geocaching in a similar way. … Continue reading Free As In Speech →

It is always hard when I want to get back out on the road and can’t. I really wanted to this coming weekend, but (a) my budget doesn’t reasonably allow it (it might if I squeeze a couple of things, but the memory of Arizona is still fresh in my mind), and (b) rental cars … Continue reading The Waiting Is The Hardest Part →

So, I decided to grab some challenges over the weekend. After grabbing an FTF, I headed to a challenge trail that recently cropped up. To be honest, they were all pretty similar, so much so that I stopped photographing after the first few. Once you've seen one tube sticking out of a tree, you've seen … Continue reading Ummm… Stuff And Things? →

The last week has been interesting since I got the FTF on that challenge at the beginning of the week. That was the beginning of a four-day string of FTFs that actually weren't that far from home for me. Something something pennies from heaven, right? But here's the thing: I spent a little time wondering … Continue reading Location! Location!! Location!!! →

With the Texas Challenge over, what was I to do with myself? It was so much fun, but I had to return home and keep on keeping on. So, what did I do? That's easy. I cached. Pictured above is the only Virtual in Austin that I hadn't found. I decided it was a good … Continue reading Life Goes On →

It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that all good things must come to an end. Traditionally, the Texas Challenge weekend ends with a CITO. It is only mete and proper that we give something back to the community that has spent the weekend hosting us (and by "hosting us," I mean putting up with our … Continue reading And Now, For The Last… →

There were a whole bunch of blue shirts running around. This year it was a tiny bit confusing because the Texas Challenge volunteers had the same color shirts. Most of the weekend, it wasn't an issue, but they were definitely outnumbered tonight. For those of you who don't know or haven't read about previous reunions, … Continue reading The 9th Annual TCC Finishers Reunion (& Bar Crawl) →

There were only seven caches left from the day before, so we were ready to attack them. We were on a bit of a schedule, though. There was an Event later that we both wanted to attend, but Razorbackgirl was contractually bound to be there. We had time, but the clock was ticking. This one … Continue reading The Conroe GeoTour (Part The Second) →
