Mike I have to disagree in that virtuals, for the most part, take a cacher to a neat place or a point in a National Park (already defined as a neat place). Waypoints can be any firehouse, pizza place, garage, pretty much what you want to post. I enjoy virtuals, make sure I include them in my hunt whenever possible. I even have two I would love to place, if GC would bring them back with some restrictions. Waypoints are of no interest to me, and it isn’t at all about the numbers.

Well, it was a way to burn some time but in the end, I was left with a feeling of little accomplishment. I mean sure, I got to take some pictures of buildings and other things, but...yeah. I can see only doing it as a mindless diversion. It's not about the find count or anything, but when there's three separate Waymarks for the same building it gets a bit repetitive. Anyone else done/do them? -Michael
