Any fellow Geocachers?

Looks like it worked fine! I'll wait till morning to try to make sense of it though. I'm too tired to get up and go to bed at the moment but I really need to!

There are a lot of pictures posted of places the bug has been. One of the most interesting places is Centralia PA, where the underground mine fire has been buring since 1962. The class had a lot of fun researching that one, and many of the places it's been. The school address is on the bug so people can send us flyers and info on places. It's so fun.

I do it occasionally and I really enjoy it. I have a cache of my own that I maintain. I'd probably do it more if my knees would let me.

Life is wonderful, but getting old sucks!

More and more caches are accessible to those with physical limitations, they are good ones too! I had a hard time finding one in El Paso that was actual wheel-chair accessible, it was a fake knot in a tree about 8 inches from the ground on a paved walkway in a city park!

The school I was working in last year has a letterbox planted on the grounds. Not nearly as educational or exciting as that!

Several of our teachers have put out caches, they can't be on the school grounds but they can be very close by!

If anyone ever wants a TB or Geocoin placed in Australia just let me know. I've got my family there hooked and they go often. I just mailed my Mum some geocoins that belong to my kids so they can see them start their journey in Australia and hopefully make it back here to the USA

i used to participate in geocaching back before the invention of the g.p.s. with a topographical map, altimeter and a compass it was a lot of fun and challenging. with the gps i now have it seems to have lost its edge.

Really? The gps just gets you to the area, it's up to you to find the sucker! I still love it.

We used to go on hunts, but to costly now to drive, found all the close ones. I too have a travel bug that I need to find a new home for, and post requested pics, we even added an ear tag to the travel bug. The first person had this bug for almost a year, and didn't post pics at all, so I don't feel too bad yet. PPL round hear are very slick with the hides too, they have micro mini caches with just enough room for a slip of paper in it.
