So, you don't think Norwegians are human?

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Tue Nov 03, 2009 8:37 am

ergo my hope to share herring..........

Aha. Thanks for the explanation.

Were you on the playa in 2009? If so, did you find the hidden herring?

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Tue Nov 03, 2009 9:21 am

yes, and no.

I heard about it, though..........so, geocaching didn't work for fish?

Using a metal detector to pinpoint the exact location was flawed by other things setting it off in the GPS location.

I'll be tasting herring in the Netherlands in May. Also visiting Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Germany and Russia. Hmmm - looks like we're missing Norway.

Estonia was a really great place when I was there.........do you have much time there, or, just port call in Tallinn?

communism was just a red herring.

Current plans are to spend ten days in the Netherlands and then meet some friends from Florida and we'll take a 12 day Baltic cruise. I want to snag a least one geocache in each port if possible.

Yup! I was on the playa this year. Located the area with my GPS. Used a metal detector to pinpoint the exact location, but had to give it up that day due to the heat. Wanted to go back another day, but all of the sudden the time run out. If it's inside the perimeter and not under someones camp, it will be retrieved in 2010.

I'm sure you're gonna have a great time! I try to get at least one geocache in each country I visit. Good luck, Geospyder! Did you find any of the Black Rock Beacon geocoins at Burning Man this year? I found one, and it's just beautiful!

We need to practice panicking. Can we arrange a time for us all together and work on our panicking skills? It's no good unless we do it right.

geospyder · Post by **geospyder** » Tue Nov 03, 2009 1:52 pm

Didn't find one of the coins

But we did gift out over 300 path tags -

Unfortunately I forgot to keep one for myself

We'll have more made up for next year and I will set one aside before we go

Yes. No. Even the herrings (or their one member delegation) could not find their dry brethren.

Silly Ygmir, you should have suppressed the photo and taken the hush, ah, "purr" money like I did.

Everyone needs to know that the Herrings highly encourage freedom from clothing.
Feel free to shed your clothing and shake your thang in celebration with them.

I'm way down the food chain, I got no such offer.........

Indeed. Nords are the original "Bear"-zerkers.

Would you like to smoke some pot, BERSERKER!
My love for you is ticking clock, BERSERKER!

Yes, exactly what I meant. It's embarassing when you can't even properly spell your bad puns.
