Another benefit of being a SLAGA Premium member is that the Directors
will maintain your caches for you...

Well, the caches are close to my house, I'm just not in town 3/4th of
the year these days. If a reviewer told me that the caches needed to be
fixed immediately or archived I could probably find someone to fix them
for me. But I think its preferable to not archive caches if possible,
and since I might be moving back there in a few years I don't see why I
should let someone adopt them. I don't see what's wrong with having
caches in two places if you're living in both for part of the year. I've
always thought the rule requiring you to live nearby was to prevent
vacation caches, not multiple residences. I've never been bothered by
caches being disabled for a few months if they're eventually fixed,
anyway.

There are of course exceptions... user "bennet" travels between Texas
and Ohio frequently and has hundreds of hides in each place. Which I
think would be okay in theory, but he rarely maintains any of them. If
they need maintenance he just archives them. Quote "When they are gone,
they are gone."

I like to think of caches as somewhat permanent. I thought it used to
say something about that in the gc.com hiding guide.
