I planned to get up early on Saturday to start on an adventure. I totally overslept, but not too late, meaning it was still cool when things started. I met Razorbackgirl at Lake Georgetown to begin an epic adventure: working Carrot Killer's new D5/T5 Virtual. All you have to do to earn it is to … Continue reading Around And Around We Go →

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3v-vkTQ1q0 So, yesterday evening, while some of you were sleeping and others of you were winding down, I was a guest on Caching in the NorthWest! We talked about satellites, gave a little crap to the biggest fruit-based phone making company in the world, and, of course, discussed geocaching! I personally talked a little about … Continue reading Here It Is 13: Back To The PNW! →

Yesterday afternoon, I went after a newly published cache. I didn't get FTF because I didn't go after it first thing in the morning before work, but that's not important. A cache is a cache is a cache. It turned out to be a cute little birdhouse, at least partially 3-D printed. To be terribly … Continue reading How Shall I Be Ennobled? →

This time, though, it was less deep planning and strategy and more … Continue reading When In The Course Of Human Events… →

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I had been interviewed by a journalism student at the University of Texas at Austin. Well, the story has been published! Featuring me and Escondido70, a student at UT whom I've run into before, it's a fairly short read, but I hope it serves as an introduction … Continue reading Here It Is 12: Alma Mater Edition →

I picked up another Mystery Cache off the list a couple of days ago from an out-of-the-way (for me) park I had visited before. Normally, I’m totally fine with getting to some out-of-the-way places to grab a cache (though I’ve noticed a marked tendency to go any direction other than south because I don’t want … Continue reading So Many Complaints! →

On Sunday, I attended an event hosted by some cachers visiting from New Hampshire. How could I not? They held it down the street from my home! Being the terrible correspondent I am, I neglected to get photos of the festivities, but there was conversation and laughter in the chill under a lunchtime sun. I … Continue reading A Puzzling Gift →

The original plan for the weekend was for the girls to come down from L-Town to Austin and go hiking, working on Carrot Killer's newly created D5/T5 Virtual. Rain would have ruined the plan had it occurred that way. Instead, in an unexpected twist of circumstance, I ended up having to drive up there. It was still … Continue reading My Partner In Grime →

Sometimes I do things that are not caching related. It's not something I like to broadcast widely, but it is true. Last night, I went to dinner and a musical with an old friend. When he headed home, I had three hours to find a cache for the day. I had seen a few new caches publish earlier in … Continue reading Blackbird Singing In The Dead Of Night →

The day before my jaunt toward southeast Texas, I was surprised to see a notification for a newly published cache, not because it never happens, but because it was in one of the socioeconomically poor areas of town I have mentioned in the past. The cache posted midmorning, but I lazed around during the day, doing … Continue reading New Treasure On An Empty Map →
