Geocaching

I grabbed two in Murfreesboro yesterday before my recording session with Free From Fear.

How'd the recording go?

We got the bass track for the song I was working done in about an hour.  Not bad considering that I had never heard the track before.  Most of the song, I just had to follow the guitar riffs.  But, there were a couple of places that they wanted a bit more bluesy riffs from the bass that they were unable to do themselves.  I fixed that for them.   

That are two good things.
Laying down bass tracks and find some geocaches.

Are there only some blues song on the CD of Free From Fear?
Or is it a CD full of blues songs?

None of Free From Fear is blues.  I just added a bluesy riff to their definite metal song.  They are a metal band.

Hholly and I went to a world wide flash mob event yesterday (WWFM).  They were happening simultaneously all over the world.  We did the one in Nashville while my brother and his new wife were at on in Maryville, TN.

We also did two caches.  We tried several more but either couldn't find them or their were muggles right where we needed to search.  Bummer.

Yep, sometimes it happens.
When ther are to many muggles around we go away and log the cache later.

We have found one today with our cousin from canada.
She and her husband are geocachers too.

We grabbed one this afternoon ourselves after church & lunch.  It was an easy guard rail cache, but it was fun for the short amount of time we had.

This week, if the weather permits, I intend to get quite a few.

I am going to try to do a bunch in the Franklin, TN area today with one of the guys from my youth group.  I'd like to really get a bunch and break through the 4800 mark.  I've been aiming at 5000 for some time and it seems to be taking forever.  Of course, if I'd actually spend a day caching, it might help.

That's a good way to spend today ... finding more caches.

We've spend today with the family from Canada.
So we do tomorrow.

We've send the answers of an Earth cache to the owner.
Now, let's see if we can log it.

I managed to find 22 yesterday taking me to 4795.  I am getting ready to go to Gallatin, TN and hope to find 20-30 more.  I am going to do a short power trail that has around 20 on it plus some other caches that have popped up in the area.

22 Finds in one day is not bad.
Have a good time in Gallatin.
Doing powertrails is fun isn't it?
It helps you to have many finds in just one day.

I didn't get to go due to heavy rain and thunderstorms.  So, I spent some time with Holly's mom and then worked a little on my cigar box guitar.

That's what we had on Monday. We've had a very heavy thunderstorm.
I'm curious about your cigarbox guitar.
How it looks like and hos the sound is. 
It's good to spent time with Holly's mom.

Well, when the guitar is finished, and it will be finished soon, you will get to see pictures taken during the process.  I might even learn a song on it and shoot at least a phone video so everyone can hear it.

I didn't cache yesterday due to rains.  Today, we are supposed to have sunny skies and I am about to head to Jackson, TN to do a bunch with some friends.

Find a bunch of geocaches today.

We have family over and they stay with us until Tuesday.
I don't think there's much time for geocaching.

Looks like about 41 finds yesterday.  I was even able to remove one more square from my beloved difficulty/terrain chairt!  Just 12 more combinations to go!

How close are you know to 5000 caches?

I have about 170.  I could finish 5,000 before school starts if I really apply myself.  Sadly, guitar building has gotten in the way on a couple of days.  I was going to go yesterday after the rains stopped, but started working on the guitar again.  I will be wiring the electronics soon, sealing the box with corner pieces for decoration, and stringing her up/setting intonation soon.

Does your family go with you?

My wife goes with me sometimes.  She is a "casual cacher" as she puts it.  She decided that if she were going to drive me around to find geocaches that she might as well get credit for them.  So, she got an account as well.  However, if I quit geocaching tomorrow, then she'd quit too.

As far as the kids, I don't have any.  I never figured out what causes them.  LOL  I do take a couple of the youth from my church with me from time to time.

I have never gone alone. I like company It's fun & free (well, kinda free)

I've usually cached alone. Whenever I'm in a city, though, I usually go with my dad, partly for the safety factor and partly to actually find the hides. He doesn't have an account, though.

I cache alone sometimes, too.  Whether I am alone or with a group, I carry at the least my .22 pistol.  If I am going to be in the deep woods or in an area of a city that probably isn't too safe, I carry my 9mm or my .44.

We did one on Saturday for another FTF for us!  It had been over a year for me with having a first to find, but that was two just last week!

I always go with my husband.
