Geocache Description:

Our regular last Wednesday of the month at Mario's on 4th St. 5pm-ish. We love to have rotating hosts for this as it's easy and great for getting over host-phobia. We're the backup and as no one stepped up and the she-leaf wasn't in nag mode, we're good.

This month, we want to share and steal ideas that have worked for cache construction. As much as I love gorilla glue, it doesn't work for everything and we were delighted to find a cheap local source for rare earth magnets. Which paint is the most durable; which camo tape holds up best? Discovered great containers? We all know about the short life of altoids tins and film cannisters). There's no excuse for naked nanos and everyone can add style to those pill bottles and bison tubes.

Rockandjan brought a coin that honored a serviceman who died serving in the Middle East to the last event. We thought this was an idea worth spreading and we just ordered 2 which we will release at the event. I wasn't able to pick a New Mexican but all of those who gave their best and last are worthy.
