I agree... History is what it is. The six tries it took us to find the "Railway Museum" are best viewed as they played out over the course of several days. Likewise, "Chandler Mini". Our rule is simple: If we get out of the car, we're looking and that will either result in a find or a no-find... We only use notes for re-visits to a previously found cache (and logs on our own, of course).
I have even replaced no-finds that a well-meaning cache owner removed when it was ultimately an error in the posting. The hour spent lurking around a neighborhood in the dark was more storied than the eventual find!
I preserve all of our log entries locally so I can recover them when necessary.

I agree. I always log my no finds. I do know that there are also people
who delete their no find logs after they do find the cache later, but I see
that as cheating the cache of it's actual history.
