Gale, I remember a couple of times looking at that cache and wondering what the deal was. pretty hard to find with just coordinates and no map to get to the site! I'm a low-tech cacher, I use the maps to get to the site and then zero in with the GPS. mozartman ----- Original Message ----- From: Gale To: listserv@azgeocaching.com ; ShadowAce Sent: Friday, March 25, 2005 3:29 PM Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Geoberry! That cache was mine, and part of the trouble was that I couldnt change the coordinates on the page. That made it harder for people to want to find it. (Pocket queries only had the old coordinates.) In this cache for tc.com, Im proposing that the cache will stay there until it is found. At the end of that day or weekend, I will disable it and move it to a new area, then re-enable it. The cache would not be something people would go to only to discover it was moved. The cache would only be moved by the cache owner, and only with prior notice on the cache page.

It appears that it sat missing for six months then got archived. I hope your cache on TC.com has better survival. I would have loved to get the moving one up there, but it was not maintained and was always missing. Then again, that might be a reason I am not thrilled about the idea of a moving cache if I drive 200 miles round trip to find out it was moved that morning. The one up in Phoenix was named Where's Waldo's Heart. http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GCD742 Owner even wrote "Since there has been such a time lag between the last finder of this cache and the person who couldnt find it, it is apparent that this cache is not as popular as some of our other caches. With that in mind, it is time for this one to be archived."
