My co-workers must think I'm crazy! I'm reading this and then I start
laughing out loud!
Thanks for the laugh before I head into the traffic on my way home.

I read through the messages from this thread and the one I started last
week and definitely got my answer. The key is to use every resource you
have when hiding and/or finding a cache. The needle and the zero on a
GPSr are not the end all of the hunt. The cache page, logs, hints,
google earth and personal experience must factor together.
I can use my GPSr to get several marks on my spot to hide and then use
what is closest. I don't mind doing that because it doesn't involve
playing on the computer and does involve nature. I do NOT know for sure
how to get the average of my marks and would love help with that.
Is that enough to be acceptable regarding getting the best coordinates?
When I search and hopefully find I will continue to tread lightly and
use all info I have gathered before heading on the hunt. I will start
to leave logs that can be useful to next cacher.
When having lunch on Friday's I will chew each bite 59 times and wait
until after I swallow to talk. I may use utensils too.
Stephen
PS- I am serious about wanting to learn how to average marks to better
my ccordinates.
