Tupperware in the woods is something that would get Lisa going.

Welcome to caching Harold!!

Do you think they no which hide is the 1,000,000 or did they not pay attention just in case it was a light poll

I'm so hot I could explode. Some putz goes caching without reading the cache page and might have cost me one of my earth caches. Its called Rain garden. Earth caches are tough to get published. There is a lot of extra work lots of coordinating to get the right permission.

Here is a link that explains the care and feeding of earth caches. http://www.earthcache.org/

Here is my GC number for Rain Garden GC1D42A
If you go here. http://www.geocaching.com/default.aspx and put the GC number in the search box the cache page will show up. By reading the page you will see all the information needed to claim the cache. Also you will see who I contacted to get permission to place the cache.

Here is the notice I received from the cache.

Didn't find this today, and the leader of the firehouse had no idea that there was a cache there, and demanded to know what I was doing there. You might want to make sure the people are informed that need to be.


And here is the answer I sent him.

Howdy doo.

See as your fairly new at caching may I welcome you to the dementia. I see you have trouble finding my Rain Garden. First may I suggest you always read the cache page. It may save you some effort and headaches. The Rain Garden is not a normal cache. It is an Earth cache.There is no actual container there. What is there is information. On the cache page are a number of question that have to be answered. The answers are on the information board at the rain garden. You then email the answers to me before you log the cache.
This link will take you to everything you could want to know about earth caches.

Then again if you would of read the cache page you would of known that I have permission from the Fire Chief and the fine people who actually built the Rain Garden. You also would of found that I have had trouble with people walking all over the garden which being exceedingly delicate is not a good thing. I had to ask everyone to stay off after being threatened with having to remove the cache because of the damage being caused. What people were doing was sitting on the rock getting their picture taken.
Now that you know what these special earth caches are all about. (My favorite type by the way). Give it another try. then may I suggest you try my other Earth Cache. "Greenbush Kettle. GCZC69.
If there is anything I can do please let me know.


Thanks for listening. Now to go talk to the folks at the firehouse and try to explain all cachers are not idiots.

There's certainly a lot to learn with this. Lisa wants to give up after her first no find last night. I'm still trying to figure out if it's us or using our phones to cache. I'm up to something like 5 DNFs and one found.

Always post a DNF. Just in case the cache is missing or someone put it in a bad place. We found a micro in a bush that was over 100 ft from GZ. The owner had to come and replace it where it belonged.
That being said. Don't give up because you had some DNF's. Some of these caches are very cleaver. You get a few more under your belt you'll start thinking like a cacher. (Read that as slightly twisted with your hair growing in) Also using a phone isn't nearly as sensitive as a gps. So don't give up . Cache on.

Thanks.

Not too sure about Lisa's frame of mind on this. I think I'll drag her out there screaming anyways.

Here is a very cleaver cache. when ever there is an event this cache is mentioned.

PIRATES TREASURE (DRIVING ME NUTS ARRR!)

GCW268

The first way point was easy. Took us three trips to find the final.

Here is the final.



Now find the cache where some kid won't wander off with it. And you don't want to look like the weird guy hanging around the playground.

We looked everywhere within 100 ft radius. When I quit over thinking it and read the cache page I had an idea.

Then the light went on and there it was.

Very cleaver people are involved in caching.



Read the logs and you'll find everyone had to return to find this one. So much more satisfying than a park and grab.

That is PURE EVIL GENIUS!

I hope your earth cache gets to stick around. Some people just don't get it.

that Playground cache is very nice

Harold come join us at Gonil we are working on getting the wankers under control

Wll you come do the same for the WGA?

One organization at a time.

When I end up over here, I try to turn around and go back as fast as possible. I'll be going back through Chicagoland around 1AM tonight.

Got cache #4 today thanks to www.geotruckers.com .

I work until 6 am so I won't be able to meet u but if you end up at the hinsdale or ohare oasises there are caches at both

I was thinking about going back through downtown and the skyway again. Not too sure. Depends on my mood.

Need to get Lisa with some founds soon.
