    Ask me sometime when you meet me and if I stop laughing long enough I will tell you.

    I would tell... but I can't, I'm running out of places to hide the bodies... (just kidding) But I really can't go into detail about the nature of my name, But if you ever want to read some good stories, look up Hiram Abif sometime.

    When I first heard of geocaching I thought it would be something I would enjoy. I wasn't sure if my wife would see the thrill. So I thought if I included her name in our handle it would draw her in. Turns out it didn't matter, she loves it as much as I do. I'm just happy we have a 4 letter name. It makes signing all those logs easier. I've gone caching with my sister, brothers and son and it's a pain to write their names - Pettyatis, Geissonator, Magillacious, Polarize and G - Force.

    I had some people when I was in the military that would take pot shots at pronouncing my last name and somehow one guy started calling me Troll (which is not close). So when I started using the web and needed a user name I decided on Troll and I found that Troll was a well used name and I needed something that was unique and different. So my passion is the Appalachian Trail. I added AT to the front of Troll and that was how I cam up with Attroll.

    When I first joined the Bcm (Bicycle Coalition of Maine) one of the first people I met was Bob.We started staying in touch by email,I learned his email address was Bobbiker.Wow what a cool name !! His name was Bob and he was a bicyclist so therefore Bobbiker.After untold sleepless nights and hours and hours of mind wrenching thoughts I came up with Vicbiker.

    I know its not as cool as Bobbiker,what with all the b's in his name.But Vivviker didn't make any sense.Thats my story and I'm sticking to it.

    Mine is pretty obvious too.....My name is Rose and I'm from Maine...AND, although my husband and granddaughter cache with me most of the time, it's mainly Rose's idea.
    A cache by any other name is still a cache

    Your name was one I was really curious about....is your real last name that hard to pronounce?
