Who knows what this Pirate is thinking - you may have just given him an idea! [;-)] As for dpo's log at 8:20 p.m. on the 3rd, the cache owner Dennis (IFISHAZ), told me that the date should have been the 2nd. (dpo is a friend of his and they went to the cache together the evening of the 2nd so dpo could find it).

Do you think Morty would be slick enough to post his plunder first, and then go out and actually do the deed some time later? This would certainly throw us off the scent, although it would be a dirty trick...just like a pirate. -FroBro Q-Tip -----Original Message----- From: az-geocaching-admin@listserv.azgeocaching.com [mailto:az-geocaching-admin@listserv.azgeocaching.com]On Behalf Of RAND HARDIN Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2003 12:45 AM To: AZ-Geocaching Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Re: Cache Pirates RE: Morty. We may be looking for a fairly new white pickup (possibly an F50). I arrived at the Pushing Tin cache (GCG1N6) at a little before 2:00 on the 3rd. I parked across the road from the cache in a dirt lot as far NE as I could get to the cache (about 150 ft). As I was getting out of my van, a white pickup traveling SW came to a quick stop on the road next to me and then suddenly turned right (jumping a curb) onto the dirt lot. (Had he traveled another 30 ft he wouldn't have needed to jump the curb.) He then pulled up behind me, sat there a few seconds and then slowly drove further SW about 600 feet. He then turned his truck so he was facing my direction and parked. His actions made me think that he was a cacher by the way he handled the truck (stopping suddenly on the road and then turning, as if he were checking his GPSr and realized he was at the site). (you know the drill . . . we all do it! [;-)] ) I left the site at around 2:20 and the cache had not been plundered yet. When I arrived home and logged my find (somewhere between 5:00 and 6:00) Morty had already logged his find advising us that the cache had been plundered. His profile was already set up and the nine caches he had plundered for the day were already p osted. The time frame would just about be right if he plundered the cache at around 2:30. That would give him time to drive (home?) and log the nine caches by 6:00 at the latest. So . . . we may be looking for a fairly new white truck! Note: The 8:20 p.m., May 3rd posting on the cache page by dpo was either a wrong time or dpo was there on the 2nd instead of the 3rd. Dpo's log entry was already posted when I logged my find between 5:00 and 6:00 on the 3rd. The cache was plundered after dpo found the cache.

From reading his profile page, it would seem that Mortey has n't yet re-hidden the cache bags. We will have to wait to see, I guess. I agree with what Scott just said, it also almost sounds like Mortey is someone we all know, because we're supposed to figure out his identity. Either that, or we're supposed to go up to complete strangers and ask, "Are you the Dread Pirate Mortey?" (Princess Bride quote there for you movie buffs.) Either way, I will be interested to see who is the first person to spot Mad Mortey. I will be on the lookout. Arrr. -FroBro Q-Tip ==== This message and any attachments are confidential.
