And we're back

Months have gone by with a serious hiatus from the sport. We could have probably pushed ourselves out the door to continue hunting but always decided in favour of other obligations or pleasures. We have picked up a few park & grabs that I haven't blogged about, although they have been logged in their prospective cache logs and web logs.

This past weekend, Mrs. HH (myself) had the obligation of taking two little haunthunters up to Indiana. With a crunch in time, we managed to find Florida in Texas in Georgia (GCY2TN) in Valdosta, Georgia. To be honest, I don't get how the name is a clue. This was our first out-of-state cache! Unfortunately, our stay the following night in Lebanon, Indiana provided for no geocaching thanks to the missing power source for the "free high speed" modem in our room. The details of this trip are on Mrs. HH's personal blog.

Christmas had some free moments, so the HH daughter and Mrs. HH headed out to grab the new Publix theme cache by 3birdfamily that was just down the road at the new supermarket, watch out for the public # 7 (GC182C7). HH daughter was instrumental in finding this one and is quite proud of herself for it.

We've still not managed to reset Good Boy! (GC147JP) and have temporarily disabled Ohio State Buckeye Avenue (GC144X8). Mr. HH was in the neighbourhood the following Saturday after we received notice that it was probably most likely muggled, but he failed to remember to stop and replace. We're hoping there's another opportunity to replace on January 5.

One thing I still have to do is begin checking for existing waymarks, logging visits, and applying for new waymarks, which are all abundant, from this trip. Bardstown, Kentucky was bursting with Historical Markers, not to mention all the other gems that I'm sure have a category to fit.

Welcome back, and looking forward to reading more of your geocaching posts. My wife and I have been addicted for six months now, and are trying for 200 before year's end. We'll see. Deep snow prevents a lot of finding. If interested, we blog at http://geocats.blogspot.com/
Cache on!
