Found GC340FP Sanders

This checkin to GC340FP Sanders reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. I managed to log most of the local geocaches during last year's Fairport by getting up early each morning (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7), while the other revellers were still nursing their hangovers, but I wasn't able …

Ruth and I celebrated our anniversary this week by going to the Isle of Man. Except we never got there and instead Ruth lost her job and I got sick.

Found GC3742 SP9

This checkin to GC3742 SP9 reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Well this was a challenge! The woods threw off my GPS, but I'd brought a backup device so I averaged between them and found a likely GZ. The dog and I did an increasingly large spiral, checking all the …

Performed maintenance for GC9GTV3 Drive Slowly; Fox Crossing

This checkin to GC9GTV3 Drive Slowly; Fox Crossing reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Maintenance check while walking the dog. Cleared some overgrown plants, but watch out because the nearby nettles ate still a little fierce (cache can be retrieved without a sting though!). Cache itself intact and healthy.

Found GC5KBK3 ISAP: Omonia

This checkin to GC5KBK3 ISAP: Omonia reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found! Took a bit of a search, because I had looked at the hint image which shows several trees at the GZ that are no longer there, so I was left thinking I must be in the wrong …

This checkin to GC1B0P5 The Runner reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. What a great statue! Cache was very easy to find; despite its camo it was very visible as I walked along the adjacent path. Thanks for bringing me out of my way on my walk from my hotel …

This checkin to GC97N64 Under the Bridge reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Walking from my hotel to the site of a conference I'm attending, this morning, I stopped to find this cache. It took an embarrassingly long time for me to spot this sneaky little container!

Found GC9WD6N Peter's

This checkin to GC9WD6N Peter's reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Saw the notification when this cache appeared near my house, which would normally be the point at which a race was kicked off between me and Go Catch for the FTF, before he inevitably got there first!

But this time …

Solving Jigidi... Again

The Jigidi jigsaw solver I wrote a year and a half ago stopped working, so I made another one (it's not as good).
