Congratulations to our two newest members!

I wasn't going to vote Scott (Ropingthewind) into the club until he found
the Water Ranch cache, but I see he finally got the right 'marks' so the
passes the test. ;-)

Wow. Does this all bring back some memories! I happened to do a search on
Google and a link to this page came up. "the big 100 mark". Wow, and we used
to think that was a big thing to get to 100. Back in 2002, it did indeed
take alot of hiking and traveling around to find 100 caches. Today, you can
find 100 caches in a day... without leaving the east valley (and probably
the air conditioned comfort of your car!). Those really were the days. Every
cache find was a quality cache and with each one, I couldnt wait to get into
the outdoors and find another one. Those days, you had to drive many miles
across town to find one cache. There were no 'questionable' caches in terms
of location and private property issues and police questioning what you were
doing and all that stuff!

Like everything else.. this game has really changed over the years!
