In an effort to recognize those who pass a major milestone,
Special Ed and Fallen Faery started the tradition of placing
milestone caches. It's just a small way to congratulate local
cachers and their efforts. This cache was placed to honor 4xkrat
for his 1000th milestone!
In a little under a year 4xkrat has managed to hit a milestone
that takes some cachers years to achieve. That's an accomplishment
he should be proud of! 4xkrat is friendly and outgoing and always
encouraging to new cachers. He was the very first geocacher to send
AKiteFlier a welcoming message via geocaching.com after she found
some of her very first caches. We've seen him at CITO events with
his sons and have sat in the car and giggled at him as he pulled
into a newly posted cache only to roll down the window and say "Hi
4xkrat - sorry but you're not FTF, or STF or even TFT - you are
4th!" He has fun with TBs and is an all around good man in the
world of caching. 4xkrat loves solving and finding puzzle caches
and, at the time of this listing, has already found 70 puzzle
caches! 4xkrat is punster at heart who can be really sneaky. As his
way of giving back to the geocaching community 4xkrat has begun to
create some fun and challenging puzzles for us to enjoy. 4xkrat
loves puns but he also loves math so sharpen your pencil, get out
your calculator, abacus, or slide rule and be prepared for some fun
times with this geocacher! Congratulations, 4xkrat.
.... This puzzle is for YOU and any of the rest of you who
enjoy a good brain stretcher and a fun hunt.
While we were typing this cache page description, the cat
knocked over several boxes of our sports card collection. After
spending several hours collecting and sorting the cards into their
proper order, the last nine cards that we picked up were:
Lou Boudreau
Ken Hubbs
Orlando Woolridge
Brad Sellers (it was not his rookie card)
Trent Yawney
Mushin Muhammad
Otis Wilson
Randy Brown
Luis Aparicio
As we put these cards in their proper place, we got the feeling
that An Oliver
Smoot Radian Projection to
Libertyville
Mission Control would not Lie to Me (or us) and lead to 4xkrat's
milestone cache.
