To get the ball rolling, I think it’s a great idea to request that owners volunteer their effort to have dialogue with a First Finder. Unfortunately, not all cachers are NWOGEO members; not all owners will want to participate; there are “owners� out there with a cache that they don’t even ca...

Reading this Welcome Wagon thread, I wondered if it is possible to: 1) Have a way to query GC.com for the NW Ohio area for first logs posted. This query could run once a week and notify the committee of a newbie in our specific area. A Welcome Wagon approach can then be used. 2) Again, query GC.com ...

How close have you come to a N/S 0º, E/W 0º at 0 feet above sea level ??

I'm somewhat close on two of three at N 05º and an elevation of 47 feet.

Rooms aside, the playground is GREAT !

I went for the private suite...

Methinks a mistake was made. I believe that "bubbadog" was taken by some previous cacher on GC.com and never did anything with the sport. I think "Bubba & Dog" may be the cacher in question, but uses bubbadog in the NWO forums. Bubba & Dog started on August 16, 2007 and h...

The first JimBob cache is actually a micro - Jimmy's just hanging out in a slightly larger container... Point is, not all micros are created equal. Heck, look at SQ Trade up or Trade Even. It was a micro and I traded for some great swag... Carmen Electra !! Mmmm... that wonderful... um... cache. Whi...

This topic is like a beach ball… place one on a table with 4 different people around it and ask each person the color of the ball. One sees red, another blue – and so on. Let the disagreements begin. Nobody is wrong; however, nobody is completely correct. What I see in geocaching may be very dif...

I have used EasyGps with a Garmin Etrex Legend frequently with no issues. After opening EasyGps, go to Edit>Preferences and select the appropriate tab to add your specific GPSr to the list. Also set your desired units of measure and coordinate format here. Did your Etrex come with some software to l...

I believe the Big Dogs that keep NWOGEO alive are doing a fantastic job with web site maintenance, event organizations and just keeping up with the daily grind of executing the “this and that’s� that keep this organization fresh and interesting. From a social aspect, this geocaching community ...

Funniest read: GCNG0Y: Let the Madness Begin ranks one of the best – if you find fun in other’s misery. This cache will be missed. Funniest written: A good cache with a fun storyline always deserves an entertaining log. GCTD0X Outback, but no Steak’ouse prompted such a log for being (in my op...

Several pounds of tenderized steak

Yeah... you might get ribbed for slingin' some Silly Urban Micros - but if you read the logs, quite a few people hunt them...

If you do decide to Archive and plant some new hides... They will come. Yes, they will come.

One would think that this thought process would be a benefit to those with a very high number of finds. Once you clean up all the caches in the area, travel distance becomes a factor just to keep the game going for you. Eventually, the area will become pretty saturated and if old “mediocre� cach...

Don't sound like happiness to me!

Sounds more like "Outback, but no Steak'ouse"... Hehe

BB - Might want to share your secret on keeping a cache dry.
