This is a great thread highlighting some really interesting (and quirky) cacher names.

Was just searching my local council libraries website when I came across ... Why Casey had to die Hayden, L. C. Personal Author: Hayden, L. C. Title: Why Casey had to die / L. C. Hayden.

Sounds like my grandfather's axe ... I've replaced the handle and I've replaced the head but I still have my grandfather's axe.

I've been reading this thread (and the other older thread on the same topic) with interest. I only have one question .... what are you doing about it? Have you ever provided feedback to a hide by a new cacher? Have you told them about what you really like about their hide? (location, actual hiding p...

I've altered my log for that cache to reflect a DNF, although have noted that I could see the container confirmin...

How "found" does a cache have to be before you can regard it as a find? I ask this because recently I located a cache (I could see the container) but I couldn't extract it from its hiding hole.
