I have no real goals either. I would like to fill up more counties and states on the maps on INATN.com.

I also would like to find a couple more little Geoadventures to do. Examples of a geoadventure for me would be the LOST series in Michigan, a hike I did in NH over three peaks finding a dozen caches and a dozen great views or the castalia quarry I did with BC and Stumpy! Just something fun and different and maybe a little nutty with a bunch of caches along the way. Maybe a road trip to NY!
I am an amazed cacher!

I just have a couple of goals this year...

I'd like to hit 1000, which I'm fairly sure I should be able to do.

I'd like to do a road trip to the northeast to gather a few more states...besides the last one was a blast!

I'd like to get at least 3 or 4 more counties in Ohio. Since it has been taking us at least a couple of weekends per county, that should still be doable!

I guess one more...I'd like to grab a cache in the Bahamas, but I'll need a passport first!

To find Cormorant's Roost GC8A3A.

To get FTF on a JJMac cache.

Finish the Fizzy Challenge.

To help out someone who wants to try caching.

Start a website about caches that should rate over 5/5.

To get my list ideas for caches I want to place under 35.

To have more fun caching than seems humanly possible.

If I set a realistic goal of finding 20 caches and get all 20 it'll be an amazing caching year.

Oh, and I have the goal of attending my 6th Midwest Geobash <- now THAT's a fun time :)

It's in Wauseon again so there's no excuse for all of NWOGEO to not make it. I even convinced Barnacle Bear to come last summer. (granted he had to bring the dog and Cheech to make sure he could find his car again...)

He needed to have the dog to find cheech. Cheech knew where the car was.

Since we haven't gone caching since maybe October, I think a realistic goal would be to at least:

1. Start caching again "regularly"
2. Hit 2000 finds
3. Work on the "Great 88"
4. Work on the "Ohio Undercover Challenge"
5. Attend Geobash

I like to hit 1000. I know I will get because I am at 892 right now.

I'd like to cache when I'm not on vacation. Also, we'd like to see more states via caching! Added 3 more last week!

1: Add a few more states to the list, both caching and benchmarking.
2: Go back to the top of Mt Washington on a day where I can see more than 20 feet. That might happen in May, I'll be in the area.
3: Find MC1280if it still exists.
4: Do the oldest active cache in Ohio, down in Hamilton County.

Do you have your swimming trunks pressed and back from the dry cleaners?

It's only 4 feet deep there. :o

What I'm hoping is that the scaled coords are off. That's a fairly common thing. Worth a search though.

Maybe we all need to get a "Water Walk" group together some day when it warms up. There's quite a few, including us, who haven't made it out that way yet.
