Best wishes for your future caching and
catching!
We had been in correspondence with mnfishnutz, discussing one
thing or another, for awhile before we met him. We got our first
FTF on one of his caches and finally met him and his wonderful son
and daughter when they reciprocated with an FTF at one of our
caches. Although 20 years his senior we have much in common and we
were immediate friends. We love the creative "bent" he and his
caching kids give to their hides from their description pages to
their chosen GZs, from the containers they create to their diligent
maintenance--we're never disappointed in finding them. We look
forward to sharing our "hobby" of caching with him and his for
years to come. Congrats on your 1000th cache and your 100th hide. -
your friends, Donald and Denise (Brooklyn51)

mnfishnutz and his team have done a ton for geocaching here
in the 763 area code. They are always very helpful with hints for
hapless cachers like me, and their hides are always super creative
and lots of fun to find. I should know; I've found all of them --
at least all of the ones in Minnesota. My wife even likes them,
even though she's never met them. (It probably helps that one of
their caches is named "Sparkyfry has an awesome wife.") Anyway,
congrats on 1,000 finds and 100 hides! I'm already looking forward
to the next 1,000 and 100! - sparkyfry

These two (mnfishnutz and troutonthebrain) have added to some
of my best caching times. Who could forget when they released 5 or
6 caches last March on a Wednesday night. When I got to gz, there
were so many people out in the field with flashlights that it
looked like a jail break. All that was missing was the sound of
blood hounds. People were everywhere running through the half
frozen swamp. What a great time. Thanks guys for all your hard work
making and hiding caches. I've had a blast! - mikedeotis p.s. Mount

Mnfishnutz represents everything good about geocaching. He
involves his kids in caching, keeps a great balance between life
and caching, and truly has a lot of fun with the hobby. But by far
mnfishnutz's acclaim comes from his creative and fun hides. You
just never know what to expect with a mnfishnutz hide, but you can
be guaranteed that it'll be high quality, and so many of his hides
are incredibly memorable. Congrats on 1,000 finds and 100 hides,
and for all the fun you've spread around the West Metro area! -

We always look forward to mnfishnutz hides, and we're
fortunate to have so many near us. The hides are guaranteed to
be creative and always get a smile from us (when we can find them
:) ). The geocaching community is fortunate to have such a
friendly, creative and prolific member. Congratulations on
1,000 finds! - Jim (JJ)

Hmmm, what can I say about mnfishnutz that won't
be the same as everyone else's glowing tribute? I'm guessing
that we all have enjoyed his creative hides, some of them more than
others! Remember the "DIPO" series? You didn't know
exactly what you were going to be searching for when you went
looking for those?! :) Back when the publishing of
caches was a more routine thing based on the time of the day, I got
the chance to search for a number of his hides first and loved the
FTF prize of their beautiful handiwork in leather. They even
made me one with my caching name on it that is still attached to my
GPS unit. But I've been blessed to know Brian and his family
long before I even knew that they were geocachers and have always
enjoyed their friendship. Congrats, Brian, on your 1,000 find
and I'm so impressed that you and Riley are going to be publishing
your 100th hide too at about the same time!! You guys add so
much to the local geocaching community - the NW suburbs are filling
up with some really nice smilies, thanks to you! May you find
all of the caches that you search for and I can't wait to be
celebrating with you for 2,000 finds sometime real soon!! And
let's go caching again together soon! - Quilting is fun
too

Mnfishnutz was the first cacher I met in the wild.
I was stuck on stage 3 of Zachary Cachery when he and his two
children showed up to cheer me on and eventually walk to the final
with me. Since then we have kept in touch via email and phone calls
as well as bumping into each other on the occasional FTF. He and
his caching family are some of the nicest people one can find. He
has also added a lot of very fun and well done hides. Congrats on
hitting 1,000 as well as 100 Hides and keep having fun. -
