(2005-09) The Moonshine Meet and Meat and Greet (with bacon) (09/29/2007)
|
|
|
Favorite Event: If you can ever make a Moonshine event, I highly recommend it - just order your burger by 12:30. During my visit, there was also a group of Harley riders intermixing with the geocachers wanting to learn more about what a GPSr can do besides helping them during their ride.
"Well... ummm... We have all these boxes hidden around the world..." |

(2010-2014) Chilly Caching, Warm Cobbler '10 (02/27/2010)
|
|
|
Favorite Event: My first of several Chilly Caching, Warm Cobbler events. Much like the Moonshine events, this is one that everyone should attend just once - especially if they do not like winter caching (but I LOVE winter caching). |

|
|
|
Favorite Multi-cache: A fun urban cache that will get your head spinning and make you think just a little bit harder - which is difficult when your head is spinning. |

(2010-2014) Hobo's Lair
|
|
|
Favorite Letterbox: I had been to this area a year or two earlier for some waymarking opportunities. Once I read the directions, I knew EXACTLY where this letterbox was located. It was just a matter of finding it. It was also my Letterbox for my Busy Day Challenge for that day. |

(2010-2014) Privilege and Poverty
|
|
|
Favorite DNF: Although I did end up finding the final, my initial attempt was interrupted by a tornado warning.
With the sirens in my ears, I bolted for the homes to the north in hopes of pounding on the door of the nearest home with cars in the driveway, but I didn't have to get that far. A car pulls around the corner with the window down. The drive yells, "Get in! I am a trained weather spotter. This is not good."
We pull in his drive and make our way indoors and wait out the storm. The situation, of course, dictates for me to explain why I was wandering around in the woods. |
