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) →

With the break of day and the opening of the main doors, we all gathered in our various panoplies. We sequestered ourselves with our teams in preparation for the closing of the doors and the addressing of the troops. And when they closed, the moment was upon us. From the dais, we received a rundown … Continue reading The 20th Annual Texas Challenge and Festival →

We began in earnest, with a burning in our bellies to come back with glory. The Conroe GeoTour is composed of 32 caches distributed all across Montgomery County. It would not be a simple thing to accomplish in one day (nor would we, as the title might suggest, but that's not important). We set off … Continue reading The Conroe GeoTour (Part The First) →

I hit town Wednesday night and faced a minor dilemma. My hotel room was booked for Thursday night, and they didn't have a room open yet. Consequently, I opted to spend the night in my car, as I have on many nights in many places. But I had some time to kill, so I did … Continue reading The Run-Up To… →

I must apologize that I don't have any super exciting caches to show at the moment because I did nothing awesome on Thursday, both by accident and by design. The design part was that I got here Wednesday evening, and my hotel didn't have my room ready (in their defense, I had booked for Thursday … Continue reading A Preview →

This time, as can be seen from the hands, my other daughter got in on the action. This one had even more guest stars than usual since we ended up dragging my niece (their cousin) along for the ride. But my oldest was the one who made the find. It's nice to know that some … Continue reading And The Other Lent A Hand… →

This being Spring Break, I have some caching guest stars, namely my daughters, visiting from the wilds of L-Town. Well, sort of, anyway. I often drag them along to find caches with wavering amounts of interest. As some of you with kids have no doubt figured out, once they start getting older, unless they're really … Continue reading With Special Guest Star! →
