Welcome to You

Welcome to our blog about our adventures in geocaching around the Pacific Northwest, our little corner of the world. We started Geocaching on March 6, 2010. We are approaching 600 finds and have an even 100 hides so far.

Geocaching is a fun activity for Nosey Rosey (Dawn) and I and we do it as a team. It has taken us around our county to places we have never seen before in 13 years. The exploring is just one aspect of the fun in geocaching. We go out nearly every weekend and use multi-million dollar satellites to play our hobby for free using an iPhone and my handheld GPS.

I (Ed) go by GeoHL now since I am called GeoHotLine by some of the fellow geocachers in the area.

Downtown Published

4PAW published a new one and it is appropriately called DOWNTOWN ... we just happened to be down on Jackson Street when it went published into my email on my iPhone so we walked down the street to see if we can find it between the sprinkles.

The size is not shown and there is no hint just a very short description. It was too wet and we got a bad signal on the iPhone for it kept telling us that we were 16 feet north of it which meant it was inside the shoe store and I am sure it is not.

So we put that on our list of ones to find and gave it a DNF ... it must be a good hide for we tore the place apart looking for it (not really). There were plenty of muggles using the walkway and I can over hear the asking each other what the heck we were doing. So I will be anxious to see who the first to find is on this one.

So we went down the street and found Axel Rose by walking right up to it. The iPhone showed the coords to be right on the spot. That makes 430 for us now on our quest for the illusive 500 mark.

We are going to Florence OR tomorrow to get out of the house. I am feeling cooped up since going to ER a couple of weeks ago and being told by the doctors to not drive and not to do any work.

Of course we will both be doing some geocaching while over there and of course we will be getting some clam chowder at Mo's. There is some new geocaches north of the area we had geocached the last time we were there so we are going to explore the northern reaches of Florence.
