> Hi all,
>
> Today we finally hit 300 TOTAL cache finds!
>
> I know that this doesn't seem like a big deal, with so many high-number
teams, but for us it is a true milestone.
>
> I started caching way back in July of 2001, when my Posse friend Flash (he
used to cache as mosie2, now as The VooDoos) called me and told me about
geocaching. I went out that day and found his first hide "Prieta View" west
of Prescott. The next day, Flash and I went after Camp Wood, placed by Wyle
E and one of the few caches nearby back then. We took the LONG HARD 4x4
approach from the east which included quite a day of class 3/4 4x4 and a
hike to boot!
>
> We then put out a few caches in the next couple months. And Lincoln put
out a few....And so it goes....
>
> I have cached in 3 states, AZ, Nevada and Calif, hidden a whole bunch (39,
about half are active now) and we have alot of fond memories of all kinds of
finds...traditional rural caches, desert, urban micros, virtuals, and a
couple cool events where we got to meet people.
>
> What a great "family" we have have here in our little geocaching
community. It's been fun to get to know and to meet other cachers, aren't we
a diverse group!
>
> And it goes on as more people discover geocaching, which for us "Old
Timers" keeps it fresh. Today, on what turned out to be our 299th cache, we
met a brand new caching family with 2 small kids, up from Anthem and doing a
couple Prescott caches. It was so much fun to chat for a few minutes!
>
> Thanks to the HIDERS who have made it possible for me to reach this modest
milestone....for awhile up here in God's Country, I didn't have too many
caches to find except Lincoln's. <grin> Now the active cachers have stepped
up and put out some fine hides and gave us some local caches to hunt!
Thanks!
