Howdy,

Thanks Steve, Brian, Scott and all the others for the congrats on 500!

Steve... we are in the cache karma rankings... just way down the list ;) We 
do have a cache hidden... RTW-1. The only reason you and all the others 
havent found our cache yet is because yall have been too busy looking down 
at the ground to find caches and not looking UP! :) HA! HA! HA! (evil grin). 
We are currently talking about hiding another cache. It will not be too far 
down the road. However, we are still enjoying reading the few find logs that 
are on RTW-1 and patiently awaiting the next find logs! We have enjoyed 
reading the logs on our cache and look forward to seeing who the next brave 
soles will be to go after RTW-1! My congrats to Team Trail Gypsy and Team 
IBBY who are the only two teams to seek and find RTW-1 so far. It was placed 
back in September 2002! We hope to hide RTW-2 soon so as to allow cachers 
time to search for it before it gets too hot out (hint!).

I would like to thank DWEx2 for hiding the Flatiron Cache. This was our 
500th cache find. I chose to make that my 500th for it's terrain rating. I 
particularly enjoy the really tough caches that require long and/or steep 
hikes. I took Seth (a new team member) on the hunt for Flatiron with me. 
This was his very first geocache. I think that was a great cache to 
introduce someone to the sport! (I am so cruel!!!!!). He really enjoyed it. 
But, I think he enjoyed the hike more than the cache. But, he found the 
geocaching thing to be pretty cool. The views were awsome. The views and the 
fact there was a cache up there really makes the hike worthwhile. Looks like 
DWEx2 likes to hide caches that are very much team RTW's favorite kind of 
caches!!!

Looking forward to the next 100!

Scott
Team Ropingthewind
