How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


Today's phrase is.....

Fair to Middlin' (far ta mid-len) idiom : Mediocre; so-so; not bad but not good. (Middling means 'of average quality.'). "Most of the caches in this here series are fair to middlin' at best." Can also be used as a response to the question "How are you?"..."I'm fair to middlin' I suppose."

The great thing about geocaching is that not only is it fun, but it can also be educational! As a service to our yankee friends who are transplanted here or who are just passing through, I bring you the Country Grammar series. Each cache in this series will present a new word from the Southernese language. For extra credit, try to work the word into your log entry. If you run into a muggle while at this cache, use the words you learn here and they will think you are one of them. The only way to become fluent is to put these words to use!

You're looking for a baby soda bottle, so bring your own pen. Use your own geocaching common sense at all times.
