Still Here!!!

It has been a while since I posted and mainly because I have been busy with work and school. I strongly encourage anyone with a full free day on the weekend to this cache in Augusta Ga.

"I See Dead People Around The Lake"

Other then that, nothing much going on, slowed down on caching because of work but will be making my surprise visit or three to various meet-n-greets over the next few months and of course the big event in Oct.

See everyone around sooner or later :)

It is @#$%^&*^%$#@! hot outside and the sad thing is I would actually not mind a string of a 100 lamp post skirts right now just so I can grab a cache or two.

Charleston

I had the pleasure of attending the South Carolina Athletic Coaches Association conference last week in North Charleston. While I was not able to get as many of the wonderful caches in the area I had hoped I was able to mark two big ones off my list that I had been wanting to do for a while

1. Geocaching Supply Cache
2. Hunley Virt

The first was just in a REALLY great park that included a path around the side of a marshy wetland which was really cool. The second one is located at the Hunley gravesite at the back of a rather large cemetery. It was a very relaxful peaceful visit to this virt and I took a moment to look over at the wonderful view of the new bridges headed into downtown Charleston.

Re my last post, this little 5 cache visit to the area helped me see decent quality caches still exist and I will soon be taking on two new missions when my free time allows (ie next summer more then likely)

1. To seek out and do as many of Waterbaron caches as I can (DR you will be in tow...CEIPS!!! W@#$%^&*)
2. Start and complete The Mother Of All Caches by the end of this year.

I also did not know when this happened but I noticed the doctor has gotten a new doorbell for his house.....

I'm Done

I am tossing in my hat to try to provide new and useful ideas in terms of what to do to make geocaching better in certain aspects. It does not matter what the idea is, it always get stolen and people who did NOTHING always in the end take credit for stuff they piggy backed off of.

I am not going into details, but give it a year or two and if a situations pans out it will just be another notch on the long list of things other people did not bother to take the time and effort to do stuff with but just happened to see it and wanna steal it to make their own...and yes..granted somethings would not be here if they had not stolen everything from other places.

Another thing---yes I have made a stance against and for things in terms of geocaching and what pisses me off are people who "think they know me" based on the crap hot headed people who dislike me have to say...you wanna know the real me---email me, talk to me, meet me at an event...you might be REALLY shocked to see I am NOT that evil geo-destroyer some people think I might be.

I might turn my GPS back on, who knows...just tired of all the useless crap I've seen and it is NOT what geocaching is about...well it wasn't 3 years ago when I started.

Beach Trip

Tue, 26 Jun 2007 16:13:37 GMT

Just got back this weekend from a long week at the beach that was SUPPOSE to be filled with geocaching, but my air compressor had other plans so my car spent most of the week in the shop getting fixed. In the end I think I ended up with about 8 or 9 for the week. When I got home I found out a local cacher in the beach area had just released about 10 new caches in the area where I just had been....booo lack of internet and car

Red Jeeps are coming out soon ....vroom

I've been teasing about a new cache coming out from me in South Carolina for most of the month and I can finally say as of last night, thanks to the good doctor himself the theme and feel of the cache is now in place and I am going to set forth a new puzzle multi that no one has ever seen done in South Carolina. Those few people who know the key aspect of the cache even say it is going to be evil....muhahahahahaahahahahah

Anyways, guess I will update again..oh this time next month??!?!?

Geowoodstock 5 was a blast and I fully enjoyed my second GW event. I made some great new friends, got to see some old ones, and enjoyed the great turnout from South Carolina. I did not get as many caches as I would have liked but the friendship I enjoyed caching with nudlez for 2 days was awesome. Sometimes it is not about the quantity but the company that you are geocaching with as Doctor X Clan or whatever personality he is going by this week.

Guess who's back...back again...Geoholic28 is back...back again.

It has been forever since I have even written here and I am deeply sorry for those who actually read this...if anyone actually does read this.....

Anyways, here is the cliffnote version of what is going on with me right now.

1. I have a full time teaching and coaching job at Fox Creek High School in North Augusta. I teach Physical Education, Health, and Weight Training. I coach Varsity Girls Basketball and Varsity Soccer.

2. I hit my 1000th cache...yay me

3. I lost a geocaching mentor, Jon of Jon&Miki became very ill very suddenly and soon passed on. He will be dearly missed and he taught me and several others many life lessons.

Well that is really all I have for now, and I hope to keep this going on a more regular bases.

Down and Dirty

Wed, 12 Jul 2006 02:42:14 GMT

30 caches....
20 finds
10 DNFs

I came home sore, tired, sweaty, and dirty from about 7 hours of caching today and I loved it. Today is what geocaching should be about and I loved every single second of it.

Big thanks to fellower geocacher Clemsonbeav for letting me come with him today to get these caches.
