THE USUAL & THE NOT SO USUAL

10/10/10 was a special day in the Geocaching world. The hobby/sport of Geocaching was itself celebrating its 10th anniversary on this day and as many GC'ers as possible were going to be out skulking around in thorn bushes and dark alleys looking for geocaches. Sally and I were part of the crowd. Check it out:

Sally set up a small cache that came active in the 10th. We did not start out especially early but I was still able to get a FTF (First Time Finder) gift here. Nice hide and not at all obvious.

Here's a textbook cache in the textbook container--an ammo box. Once upon a time nearly all caches were hidden in these boxes, the world sure has changed, see my post below.

Our fave hider in the Beckley area, Waypoint Wayne (he of the multi in the post below) has built this excellent cap for the post. Not all that obvious, but clear to those as devious as he.

Not a cache at all, but this was truly a day of the unusual as well as the usual. What does this guy watch on TV? Anything he wants of course.

Waypoint Wayne strikes again!! The huge nut/bolt is the cache and it is magnetically attached to the bridge steel.





We had a great day, only one DNF (did not find)out of 12 or 14 caches, but in the words of the immortal Ahnold "We'll be back".
