- My one and only cache is an ammo box. I painted over the yellow 50 cal. markings with black spray paint just becuase I didn't want anyone to call the bomb squad. On another note. I had a lot of fun today with all you goobers that went on the group hunt. Thanks to Dan for setting it up. I thought this would put me at 40 but I am mistaken I'm only at 39 :( I'm off now to soak my whole body in amniotic fluid in my sensory deprivation tank. I did a lot of walking yesterday and I'm sore all over. Andy, Yutty, or whatever you feel like calling me today. --- Glenn <Glenn@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > - > Ammo boxes are OK with the state parks as long as > the box is labeled with > "geocache". it is even better if the box is > repainted and the yellow > markings are removed (painted over) > > > At 04:58 PM 12/27/2003, Paul Konopacki wrote: > > ><http://www.ammunitionstore.com/pricelist_ammoboxes.htm>http://www.ammunitionstore.com/pricelist_ammoboxes.htm > > > >I have been cleaning out all my old browser > bookmarks for the year and > >came upon this link.
