  • Found GC7G5K0 WarNinja's Couldn't find it!

    This checkin to GC7G5K0 WarNinja's Couldn't find it! reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Even with the hint, I stared for a while before I saw this one. I guess it's like those magic eye pictures or something. A bird in the tree was not happy that I was stood โ€ฆ

  • Found GC8BFHQ One for ewe

    This checkin to GC8BFHQ One for ewe reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Nice camo; needed the hint, but once I'd worked out what I was looking for I spotted it quickly. Drizzle's coming, guess brining a jacket was the right move after all.

    This checkin to GC8BEYC RWCT: Sheep Camp reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Another quick find. Nice hiding place! When I got out of my car it looked like it might rain so I put a hoodie on but now it's getting warmer and I'm regretting the decision. C'est la โ€ฆ

  • Found GC8A7WF Sheep Camp Trailhead (Southern)

    This checkin to GC8A7WF Sheep Camp Trailhead (Southern) reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Very quick find on my final morning in the USA. Thanks to previous logs for the poison oak warning; I'd never seen the plant in person before, only in illustrations, and I wouldn't necessarily have identified โ€ฆ

    This checkin to GC4EFYR The Faults of Fissure-ing in Sag ponds reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. My last morning in the Bay (and, indeed, in the USA) before I fly home to the UK this afternoon, and I was keen to add an Earthcache to the list of my โ€ฆ

  • Found GC1VDPF Duck Duck Google

    This checkin to GC1VDPF Duck Duck Google reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Swung by after visiting the Googleplex. Used OpenStreetMap for directions. ;-) Roadworks on this road at the moment and they're closing it at night times: (near) future cachers may have a walk ahead of them! TFTC.

  • Found GC4R0WX 2 Penguins Conniving

    This checkin to GC4R0WX 2 Penguins Conniving reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Threw together a quick computer program to help decipher the description, only to realise that I actually needed to have paid attention to the steps I took in deciphering it, too! A quick do-over and I was โ€ฆ

    Found GC703ZD Chocolate Chip Doughnuts

    This checkin to GC703ZD Chocolate Chip Doughnuts reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Recognised this style of recipe right away; I've been cooking things like this for years: maybe I've even got the same recipe book as you?

    Anyway, it didn't take me long to have a doughnut in one hand โ€ฆ

  • Exhibit of early transatlantic telegraph cable with message implying that it enabled "speed of light" communications.

    My hardware engineering is a little rusty, @ComputerHistory, but wouldn't signals propogate along this copper cable at "only" somewhere between 0.64c and 0.95c, not 1c as you claim?

FP for possibly being my new favourite cache.

  • Found GCBD0A Laughing Sal's

    This checkin to GCBD0A Laughing Sal's reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. What does the belly dancer do on her day off? Plays the ukulele (although not very well, from the look of things)!

    Next question: at what time does the execution of the English man take place?
