This is going to be our one and only post that you will ever see from us on 
this site.  We are in this for fun, not politics and debates.  

There are several points we would like to make:

1. Most importantly, this is a game! 
2. If our caches meet the requirements set by geocaching.com that is ALL that 
matters.
3.  We do not do this for stats.  We don't now, nor will we ever.  
4.  We see this as a game of "hide and seek".  We will continue to hide and 
to seek.  If those numbers are a close ratio, we don't care.
5.  We will continue to hide as many caches as we want and where we want so 
long as geocaching.com continues to approve them.
6.  We maintain ALL our caches and will only place them in locations we are 
willing to go back to for the purpose of maintainence.
7.  If for ANY reason you don't care for our caches, DON'T GO TO THEM.

For a BRIEF explaination of why we place them where we do (not that it is 
ANYONES business), none of us are into long hikes for different reasons.  
Some simply don't like to hike and another has medical restrictions.  For 
those reasons, we prefer easy walks and drive-bys.  We appreciate other easy 
caches and we know there are other people out there with diabilities, 
limitations, young children, etc who do appreciate us hiding easy ones.  We 
are not offended or upset that we can't or don't want to go to a top of a 
mountain to find a cache.  We simply don't do it and certainly do not 
critisize anyone for placing them there.  We expect the same respect from 
others.  If we want your opinion, we will ask for it.  If you find a REAL 
problem with one of our caches (such as damage, a filled up log book, a 
missing cache or something similar) then of course, let us know.

We thank everyone who has given us support through this ordeal and look 
forward to running into you on cache hunt.
