  No, we certainly didn't do it in under 8 hours.  That's less that 12 =
minutes a piece including drive, park, find, log time.  I can see why =
that wouldn't be fun.  No, we do this first and foremost for the fun.  =
We completed the tour in about 15 hours.  Started with flashlights and =
ended with flashlights.  We had a BLAST!!

  Picture us, two techie geeks, all decked out.  In the truck, we had =
the power inverter running saving the laptop batteries.  On the laptop =
we had Microsoft MapPoint.  We had spent about a week selecting caches, =
solving puzzles, and optimizing our route.  We kept my GPSr in the =
truck, linked to the laptop.  We used his GPSr in the field.  We knew =
where we were going, how we would get there, and when we should get =
there.  We had estimated how long each cache would take to find.  Our =
plan ended up being fairly accurate.  With all of this prep work and =
supporting technology, we were able to just cruise around following the =
pre-defined route and enjoy each and every cache we found.  We ran into =
a cache owner and spent time chatting.  We played tricks on each other =
at some sites.  Most importantly, we took our time, enjoyed ourselves =
immensely, AND REMEMBER EVERY SINGLE CACHE.

  Although we had our eye on that record when we planned the trip, we =
did not let it distract us from the reason we geocache in the first =
place... to have fun exploring.
