Congrats Mike!
Im willing to bet if you counted all the caches that Mike has revisited while introducing people to the sport that he'd be well over 1K. Congrats Mike.
Congratulations on reaching 500! And I agree, I'll bet many of those were at night. I used to read where Gob-ler would use the aid of his cell phone light to assist, but I've never heard of people signing the log by the light of a cigar. Keep on trucking mike, and like Tom Beaudette "We'll leave the light on for ya."
Way to go - but isn't it like a ghost to just spirit past something? Congrats, Ekidokai!
Congratulations - I'm so glad one of your 500 (WOW!) finds was one of our caches, even though I did have to watch Kaching Karen "drag you up a mountain" to do it!! LOL! You're certainly one of the good sports that makes geocaching a good sport!
Congrats Mike. Thanks for all that you have done for this hobby.
Wow, thank you. I don't do many things quietly.Quote:

The scariest was Arizona State Nickname. I almost slid into the canyon a few times at 3AM.

Yes I have signed many by cigar light and set one or two on fire knocking my ash into the cache. Damp logs are not all bad.
I think this was the only one I got to do with the owner. It was a privilege meeting and caching with you. Good sport, I don't know if I'd say that. Stubborn might be more like it.Quote:

Most of the time I can't pry them out of the van after dark, but if I can get them to try it, once is about all I get.
As for ding things for the hobby, I don't really think I have done anything that special. I'm just really glad you all like the hides.
Well done Mike! And kudos to you for the placing the first "power run" series that so many of us enjoyed!:)
Well now that's not so hard . . . I mean I cry like a little girl every time I watch Old Yella and I still refuse to watch any Friday the 13th movies. ;) :)Quote:

Congratulations Mike! You were one of the first Geocaching people we met (at Gobler's going away event) and are definitely one of the nicest!
Congrats, Mike. In a sport/hobby filled with oddballs, you're definitely right up at the top of the list. :):):)
Again, thank you all so very much. This would be so boring without all of you. I feel so privileged that you have allowed me to participate in this great adventure.
What do you mean by that?!Quote:
