This cache has been around for quite a long time, but I've only just gotten around to getting it. Behold! My first UV light cache! After all this time, buying that UV light finally paid off! Is there a feeling quite as lovely as vindication? Probably, but vindication will most certainly fit the bill! I've … Continue reading Something Old, Something New →

It seems a little ominous that my cache photo is from a mostly forgotten cemetery in a subdivision, but it is unfortunately fitting. Remember when I mentioned that cacher who fell off a ladder and went into the hospital about three weeks ago? Well, he passed away yesterday. On a certain level, I feel glad … Continue reading Safety! Safety!! Safety!!! →

Obviously, caching got done over the weekend. I almost took a trip down to San Antonio to grab a few, but I ended up changing plans to accommodate other things. That changed the direction to Lampasas, but the threat of rain put the proverbial kibosh on that, too. The road calls, and I want to … Continue reading The Wanting Comes In Waves →

So, my cache today wasn't anything special in and of itself (it was blurry because sometimes I forget how to take a photo, but that's a different issue altogether), but its location was an interesting thing. It turns out that Austin-Bergstrom International Airport has a viewing area. I've lived here all my life, and I … Continue reading Where The Cache Takes You →

From Hell's heart, I stab at thee; for hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!Full disclosure: I'm not really that invested. I am not a superhuman tyrant from the 20th Century nor possibly in love with Nathaniel Hawthorne. But I did conquer my white whale today! I have been looking for this cache … Continue reading To The Last, I Grapple With Thee… →

This weekend, I went to visit my daughters in scenic L-Town. Consequently, I had helpers looking for my daily cache. In all truth, I didn't need them. The cache itself was simple enough to find, and the only real complication was the trees making ground zero bounce around a bit. It took less than ten … Continue reading Maintenance! Maintenance!! Maintenance!!! →

It wasn't that long ago that I was bemoaning the fact that I didn't make it to Utah. So, imagine my surprise to be contacted by a cacher in Utah for help. There's a multi-state Multi-cache, owned by someone local to me, that's set in Davis County, Utah. I'm not sure they're allowed anymore (the … Continue reading Coincidence →

I took a day to do some Adventure Labs. I know there are a lot of people who don't like them because they don't consider them "real caching." I get why they feel that way. I will even admit that they somehow feel a little "less than." However, if a Virtual can be considered real … Continue reading Futbol →

So there is a bunch of local, pretty extreme cachers who put build geoarts and host events to gather people together to hunt them down. They tend toward stupid hard hides and lots of DTs. So guess where I was this weekend? The turnout was pretty big, bigger than the other two of these I've … Continue reading I Told You I Was Gonna Cache… →
