It WAS a long day (actually 2 days because I didn't sleep before the caching insanity due to some last minute planning alterations). My goal was 110 (double my previous record) and fortunately I had something like 162 planned and manually put into my GPS. There were some set backs throughout the day (caches I couldn't find) but that is to be expected. I was obviously in a rush so I could only spend so much time on a cache but my batting average for the day was pretty good in my opinion. Around noon I began to lose hope of reaching my goal but then came the SCRUNCH series which bouyed my spirit (and average hourly cache find rate). There were several frustrating moments when I would see a gathering of people in a park right next to a lamp pole or table where the gps was pointing to. I knew those would have been sure finds but I couldn't just wait for them to leave. It was so frustrating to abandon sure finds! After I finished I headed to IHOP with my brother and Frieza. Somehow I got home and I slept til 3 the next day. Then came the logging. I thought finding them all was the hard part. LOL Anyway, Thanks to everyone who placed these caches. Without them I would not have been able to do it.
