Sure, I grabbed a couple of caches over the weekend. Yesterday I went to grab a lab cache, but the but the Texas State Cemetery was closed and locked up, probably because of the time of cholera. I would have jumped the fence but there was a small group day drinking on a patio across … Continue reading How Far We Have Gone →

Diametrically opposed to DNF Day is FTF Day. So here's the thing... I'm not an FTF chaser, but if a cache drops within a couple miles of home, odds are pretty good that I'm going to go for it, especially if I haven't gotten one that day. Add in that I'm working from home and … Continue reading FTF Day →

The parks are packed these days. Everyone is getting out to them to use them for exercise. It's really the only thing we're supposed to do so everybody is doing it. This, of course, creates the interesting problem that they may or may not be getting packed enough to become their own hot spots for … Continue reading Ecce Silva →

For those of you who have been following my exploits for all this time, you may have noticed that I have a specific publishing schedule: when I have new counties, I publish every weekday and when I don't, I publish on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Well, today's entry is, well, a bit of filler sort … Continue reading I Feel Like I’m Cheating →

…you never recover. Not now or any time soon. I just want to get in a car and drive. I might put Oklahoma on hold for a number of reasons. So maybe I’d go to Louisiana or Arkansas. I think I could do the entirety of New Mexico in three days (their craptastic speed limits … Continue reading The Road Is A Lover… →

Contrary to photographic evidence, Easter wasn't the greatest caching day. My daughters and I decided to get some air and exercise in a socially isolated fashion so we started heading out of town. Driving along Highway 71, we headed out about halfway to Llano, taking a few stops along the way. There's a series that … Continue reading DNF Day →

"...doesn't own a boat?" Hello? Have we met? I'm that guy. But, as fate would have it, I know people with boats, kayaks, and other forms of water transport. One of them, the one and only Carrot Killer, gave me a ring asking if I was interested in an FTF on Lake Travis. I thought … Continue reading “What Self Respecting Cacher…” →

So I went out for my daily cache. Yes, I'm still managing to do it. Going out to roadsides in the middle of nowhere or deep into parks, or some such suitably remote locations make it reasonable to cache about. Besides, I've cached a lot of central Austin so I have to get a little … Continue reading Hidden Places →

How many times have I (or you for that matter) come across a cache that has tons of DNF logs, but nobody has even put in a maintenance on it? Or is obviously gone, but the owner hasn't found a cache in years? OR the cache is so messed up that it obviously needs to … Continue reading Archive! Archive!! Archive!!! →

I went for a walk today. There's a park in Round Rock that has a bunch of caches in it so I decided to take a walk about the park and grab a few of them. If I was going to get out and exercise as the stay at home order allows, I might a … Continue reading Exercise (Sort Of…) →
