[GeoStL] Re: Trip

-




Dan,
I had a great time... Your two rest stop caches were my first and last caches.
Yes unfortunately I did have an encounter with a police... while I was out caching last Thursday someone decided they needed everything in my campsite more than I did. They stole my tent, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, pillow, stove, coffee pot and even my dirty laundry... such is life...
As far as number of caches... I found one for each day in a year.
