My scariest drop. I am getting paranoid. Lots of cool stuff in this one. Go fast, it's not very well hidden.
WE HAVE ARRIVED
Well, it has happened. velocache.net is now a fully operational battle station. Prepare yourselves.
Before I digress, which I am known to do, let me start off by giving some credit and handing out some thanks. This would not have happened without you all. You know who you are. Thank you. The new site would not be in existance without Buttars, if you run into him, give him a hug and buy him a beer. HUGE thank yous to the veterans out there who have kept this afloat in times of trouble and triumph...I have personal things to say to you that will have to wait until we have a face to face.
At the pokercache party on September 19 I would really like to take a bit of all of your time and preach a little about "the game". We'll see, I will probably just get drunk and cry a lot.
SO. Go to the site. Familiarize yourself. It is different than the one we play on now but can do all of the things we do now AND MUCH MUCH MORE. You will need to create an account. It is free and always will be for players. I realize some of you have already been in and have looked around but it is time for everyone to come on board. Texting from a phone to the site works. E-mailing too. There is a great forum feature that we can all cache ourselves in as well. This site is still in beta. It is not finished so now is the time to see if we can break it.
For now, play around. Posting "real" caches is not off limits but I think it might serve us better to get really comfortable with the new toy before we go "live". Post pictures of your cats and dogs. Go to the forum and talk about bikes. Have fun.
LOVE to you all. -A. Mortician

Velocache #10 Found
ReplyDeleteAfter 12 days sitting at my computer in Cleveland and watching the posts of cashes planted and recovered, I was more than ready for the next Cache.
So I got back to LeBois late last night, slept in after a long day of air travel bliss. I awoke this morning, logged in only to discover all the caches had been found...
So I took the day and ran all over town in search of the elusive "Great Cell Phone deal" (an unreliable phone when your wife is 8.75 months pregnant is a very bad thing)
Arriving home in a cloud of defeat (no phone deal to be found), I logged back into Velocache to see if there were any new posts. Low and behold there was not a single new post, but two…. And one I recognized right away. Then I realized the post had been up for two hours, surely others had seen the posts. I scrambled for the camera, ran to my bike, and took off at top speed. About halfway to the location I realized I should have brought a coat and a bag, but no going back at that point.
I arrive, no other bikes to be found…. Yes, the views are right, this is the place. And there it is, random cardboard box… Victory!
Pics incoming...
