If you've spent any amount of time in Wisconsin, chances are you've heard it.
That universal phrase.
The one that somehow works for nearly every situation.
Walk into somebody in the grocery store?
“Ope!”
Need to squeeze by at a fish fry?
“Ope, lemme sneak past ya.”
Drop something?
Spill something?
Accidentally make eye contact?
You guessed it.
“Ope…”
But today, we celebrate perhaps the most important use of all.
The moment every geocacher knows.
You search.
You wander.
You question your GPS.
You second guess yourself.
Then suddenly…
There it is.
Hidden in plain sight.
Standing proudly where it absolutely should not be.
And before you can stop yourself, you say the words every Midwesterner already knows:
“Ope, There It Is.”
