OK then we can do it this way. As bruce mentioned you can search for the "nearest caches" from a cache that you already know the location of. the distances will then be from that cache. OR, use you home zip code and the distances will be close to where your house is.

Thanks Glenn, unfortunately that is not much help, since most of the time I don't know where the post office is when I look for caches in a certain area. Thanks, you sure answered my question. Bernie

Getting answers to questions is what this list is for. the numbers that you are referring to are mileage and direction to the cache from where you did your search for caches from. if you put in a zip code to search from the distances will be from (generally) the post office in the zip code. so if i search for caches using 63026 as a reference point, all the didtances are from the PO in downtown fenton.

  I'm new at this. Could you please explain to me what the mileage and
directions mean next to the blue cans on geocaching.com. In other words,
what are they referenced too?
 I constantly come up with questions that I would like answered, and hope
that you don't mind me asking you. I won't spring them on you all at once,
but from time to time I hope it's OK to bother you. Thanks  Bernie
