300th Geocache!

It was a long time in the coming with a few clerical errors along the way, but I finally reached a geocaching milestone that I just had to share. I've found 300 geocaches! Okay, I've actually found prolly like 305 or something, but there are a few I haven't logged because I didn't happen to have a pencil with me when I found them. is cache number 300. Can you spot it? I was thwarted on my first attempt and had to go back. (And is a shot I took looking for #299. Midwestern winter/post-winter "forests"* are pretty in the sunshine.)

Since I know the nerdiness of this accomplishment outshines other nerdiness contained on this blog, I'll try to make this short. I've been caching for just over 5 years. I've cached in 12 states* and 13 countries/territories*. While I'm not the 3 day hound that I used to be back in the early days of the "sport", I still find time to get out in the woods every now and again, esp. when traveling.

So I don't imagine #400 will happen any time soon (unless I happen to meet up with a voracious geocacher that impels me to tag along), but I don't doubt that it will eventually happen. And when it does, I'm sure you'll hear about it.

Update*: I'm now up to 13 states with successful cache finds. (I realize now that I phrased that wrong because I have attempted caches in more states and countries than mentioned. I failed in a few.)
