It feels a little disingenuous saying this because I have three or four caches sitting around the house and three or four more envisioned but not made yet, all gathering dust because I can’t come up with quite the right places to put them, but I think this needs to be said, and it’s inspired … Continue reading Hide For The Future! →

Yesterday, I attended an Event a bit unlike any I had attended before. My friend Moosiegirl hosted one devoted to snake identification and behavior. She had a local professional come out and give a presentation on the types of local snakes and how to tell the venomous snakes (a.k.a. danger noodles) from the non-venomous ones … Continue reading Noodles? Yes! Danger? Not So Much! →

... are now accomplishments.Yesterday, I went out and grabbed some challenges. Normally, I save them for logging at later times. I never know when I'm going to need one to fill in a day of my streak (which, even though I am no longer officially keeping track, just passed 1,600 days). Today, however, I decided … Continue reading What Once Were Challenges… →

It's been a while since we've been current and all that. On a certain level, it's nice to be able to have town after town, county after county to tell you about. Besides it being my raison d'etre with all these words in the first place, it's easy to compile notes on somewhere I've been, … Continue reading Time Has Caught Up With Us, My Friends →

The last time I was at a GeoCoinFest, I stumbled upon it by accident. If I’m out on the road and just happen to be in town the same day as a Mega-Event, I’m going to attend! This time, though, it had been on my radar for a while. How would I not go to … Continue reading GeoCoinFest 2022 →

A few weeks after I returned from Seattle, I got a call from a couple of caching buddies of mine, The Outlaw and Moosiegirl. They were looking at making a maintenance trip down to Wimberly (just northwest of San Marcos) to take care of a cache they had adopted. The last few finders had reported … Continue reading Cache On Prayer Mountain →

Three-hour layover!!! When Buckandi and I arrived, we had to part ways for a bit. We both wanted caches in the county, but I had more specific needs. I called a cab. There’s no nice way to say it, but the driver wasn’t very good at his job. He got me where I needed to … Continue reading 775. Boise, Ada County (ID03) →

Oh, yes, we cached. There were tons of Adventure Labs on site, but we got out and got to the job and then some. First, we stopped at the Space Needle grounds at a totem pole with a cache attached. It was easy enough to find because, as you can see, there were already cachers … Continue reading The Mean Streets of Seattle →

As you can imagine, parking in downtown Seattle is a challenge of its own. Because of the early hour, however, we managed to get a decent spot that met our needs not too far away from ground zero. This was especially impressive since we were in the shadow of ... ... the world-famous Space Needle. … Continue reading The Geocaching 20th Anniversary Celebration →

Future Arborists of America, attend!  This is another textbook case of how not to plant trees in front of a courthouse, which is sad because the courthouse is actually fairly attractive. Even the extension on the side isn’t badly done.  All of that is negated, however.  You can’t even see the front!  What a shame. Seeing … Continue reading 774. Wenatchee, Chelan County (WA39) →
