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.

BOY SCOUT GEOCOIN

Got a message that one of the geocoins that were released exactly one year ago this month has traveled a bit farther for a total of 6,188 miles so far.

It started out in Roseburg and then went to Florence OR for a family vacation. It got picked up by some vacationers and they took it south to Anaheim CA. Then some other people picked it up and moved to Big Bear Lake CA and then it went down the mountain to Redlands CA. After that it got on a jet and flew back to Milwaukee WI and then caught another flight to St. Thomas Virgin Islands. Now it has caught another flight and is on the east coast outside of Clinton MA west of Boston. This one is really moving well.

I have permission from the City of Roseburg to take one of the Discover Roseburg geocoins over to Maui with us in exactly 60 days from now. Being that all the Hawaiian Islands chain is so international by nature who knows where the geocoin might end up going from there.
