Geocaching New Years Resolutions

Postby HikerRon » Mon Dec 07, 2009 9:55 pm

Ok, i'll start this off with my New Years Resolution for 2010

''When caching ALONE, i will not seek any caches with less than 2.5/2.5 diff/terrain ratings''.

this way, when caching with friends, i wont be a PIA:)

who is next?

I am sure most readers are ready to get '09 over and done with. It's been a tough couple of years for most people I know.
It seems like only yesterday we were getting ready for Y2K and all the hoopla that went with it.

Jason certainly sets the bar high, and I am absolutely certain he will live up to his objectives.

I have made my resolutions for the new year, but will only post the two that pertain to Geocaching.

#1 Hide two quality caches, one is now in the fabrication stage and I am looking for a suitable location.
It will involve triangulation and may have a puzzle twist. The second will be a while due to the nature
of the container and will be a traditional. The spot has been picked out and the coords reserved. I
just hope I do not have to go to jail for this one.
#2 Log more of my finds and try to do a better job of praising the caches and thier owners.

#3 Not so much of a resolution, but more of a wish to join in the next challeng series, if there is one.

May everyone's new year be productive and healthy. CACHE ON!

Ron

Now that I have a running car! I want to get to 600 finds, hoping to do that on the Paris trip next weekend. After that, I want to hide more good caches, find more local caches (can't take anymore trips for the next two years...).

1. Reach 1000 finds this year.
2. Finish my multi series and get it out and in play.
3. Get a couple of challenge caches out there (way too few for Arkansas right now)
4. Go see the GPS adventure maze to get that pretty icon

Must be a misunderstanding on my part. I thought the next one might be cancelled
when you asked me to hold the prizes that I was going to donate.

I dilslike making commitments that I can't make good on, so if there is a new
challenge for 2010 maybe I can slip in there for a point or two.

OK, I get it now. You were referring to NWAC sponsored challenges.

Jason has a good idea for one that I think he's just fleshing out at the moment.

Stay tuned for further details.
