[Az-Geocaching] Milestones

[Scott Sparks]

I'd just like to take a moment to announce a couple milestones for my 
family's team, Team Sprocket.   We began geocaching on September 19th of 
this year, just 45 days ago, after being introduced to the 
sport/hobby/obsession by a close friend, AJ.JR.  I quickly involved my 
wife and two children and, this past week, we surpassed 3 important 
milestones.  On Wednesday, we tied, and then passed Team Sand Dollar's 
old record of  93 (Arizona) finds in one month.  That same day, we found 
our 100th cache, and hit the respected "century" mark.  In the process 
of that marathon caching day, we crept into 2nd place for the most 
(Arizona) finds in one day with 26, second only to Wolfb8's astounding 
record from September 9th.  We spent over 13 hours caching that day and 
drove over 170 miles on just a Starbucks coffee and a cheese danish.  On 
Thursday, we finished up with 101 finds in the month of October  and we 
celebrated with dinner at Red Lobster.  We want to thank all of the 
geocachers in Arizona (and elsewhere) who hid caches that we found and 
challenged both our minds and our physical endurance.  We also want to 
thank all of you who have developed and promoted the sport of geocaching 
and particularly those who maintain the web sites associated with it.

Thank you all.
