Featured Cacher

 Youngatheart1 When did you start Geocaching? I started geocaching in Sept of 2006. I figured it was something else to get me outside and enjoy fresh air...keeping me young...so that's where my Geo-name came from! Youngatheart1! How did you learn about caching? A friend was a geocacher and was enthusiastic so I tagged along for a few find at one of the Darke County Parks and was hooked! What was it about geocaching that got you hooked into the game? The hunt! Just knowing that something is out there hiding and waiting to be found! Now, everywhere I go....I think hmmmm I wonder if there is a cache there?! Or that would be a great place to hide one! What kind of equipment used (PDA, Garmin, Magellan, software)? I use a Garmin E-Trex although I also own and use an E-Trex Vista. I have a bad habit of losing my GPSrs! I've lost 2 already! YIKES! I don't dare buy anything too expensive! What are your all-time favorite cache/S and or adventure? I'd have to say that getting the cache "No Strength Required Just Ingenuity" has been my favorite! We put a lot of thought in how to retrieve it and then get it back...and did a great job! It was a fun team effort and we had a blast! With whom do you normally go geocaching? I go caching with my good friend Cobie_Kat the most. I have several other friends I cache with as well includeing my son, but for the most part it is CK. I also enjoy caching by myself on occasion. It's good to get out in the fresh air and do some walking and hiking. I like to listen to music while I'm searching when I'm off by myself! Have any "Most embarrassing Geo-moment" you would like to share? Details please! One of my most embarrassing moments was finding the caches called "The Orange Trail" Near Lewisburg..we trekked all around that new county park Miami County and got lost. We got bushwhacked quite a bit. I fell into the creek..Got up and promptly fell right back in the water! I was covered with mud! CK and I laughed so much... I Couldn't get Out of the muck! I had to dig my shoe out too! Probably won't be the last time I do something like that...we always seem to have an adventure when we are caching! Is it all about the numbers? Since I only have 505 caches...it isn't always about the numbers. I enjoy going for caches that take me to places of interest...I like to learn about the history of the area. What are your all-time favorite cache/S and or adventure while caching?? Working full itme and having other interests as well keeps me from caching a lot but I would like to get out there more often. My husband likes to go along...he's not quite the enthusiast that I am, but he really enjoys the cemetery caches. So much history and we've seen some fascinating statues and plaques. Caching has taken us to places we would have never have gone to if not for looking for that camo'd treasure! What is your favorite type of cache (traditional, multi, puzzle) and why? I enjoy traditional caching the best but I've been solving quite a few puzzle Caches lately. They can really be mind busters! Once I start one I'm quite compulsive and usually won't rest until I solve it! My puzzle partner and I have cracked quite a few and we have developed "green" caching. I will Solve them and he will go find Them or vice versa. Gas prices STINK!  ) Living where I do makes it somewhat difficult to cache as well. Northern DarkeCounty is not known to have a lot of caches but we are really stepping it up! There are quite a few in the area now. And new cachers as well. Which is great!I have to travel 30 + miles just to get to cache-rich areas.. so that is kind of a bummer. I have a Cabriolet convertible that is really fun to go caching in and CK & I have had quite the adventures running around in it! What are some things you don't like about geocaching? What are your pet peeves? As for a pet peeve...hmmm...one of them would be micros hidden in a woods! AARRGGHH! Also, I hate it when people take coins from the caches and don't log them out or they lose/keep them and don't move them on. I've lost a couple of nice coins that way. But I have 2 Geocoins traveling around England now...so that is really awesome. I would like to hope that most cachers out there don't take a coin unless they are going to move it along. Do you currently have any caching goals that you are working towards? My goal is to hit 1000. But I'm in no hurry. I'm having fun along the way. I've met some really nice people who are cachers... And made a lot of new friends. I really enjoy the events When I can get to them. Geocachers are quite a diverse group of people! I really admire folks like Pokerbuzz (Toni and Frank) who are great puzzle solvers! They have also been great at encouraging me to hang in there on a lot of puzzles. I also Admire MTMAN2 another good caching friend who loves geobiking! Combining exercise with geocaching is a great hobby combination. Golztene is the bomb too! He has some great numbers but puts out some Really good caches as well! There are many geocachers out there who deserve cudos! The Miami cachers are the best!
