| my stash of 5 of them in Hinkley |
Midnight Sunday - I'm just getting home from.... HINCKLEY!!!! (Moody Blues concert @ Grand Casino)
Imagine my surprise to go to the only cache in Hinckley and find it had been suddenly turned into a "Laker Hotel"...... so much for my idea of dropping some up there I had a pretty good laugh about it there -- pretty pathetic to be laughing in the rain, in a cemetery with muddy pants because you found a handfull of keychains.
So I traded the ones I had for some (but not all) that were in the cache - there are still five there -- somebody go get them.
And yes you can adjust my points if you feel the need --- Jod forbid I should ever be the top Laker mover  |

I will be in Hopkins tomorrow, Tuesday during day and Wayzeta Thusday late afternoon early evening. If any one has lakers that you want send west of the metro I could take them. I don't know how distribution was set up so maybe there all out in hands already. I will a little time to travel a little further to meet some one.

Centris - were you going to send some to loneeagle_24?
News on other parts of the state:
I'll be sending a few to Team Hooligan for the western Iron Range.
Jill and I will be heading up to Virginia, Cook, and Ely this weekend (maybe Duluth too).
Event attendees are bringing Lakers to Rochester as we speak.
Event attendees will bring Lakers to Mankato this weekend.
Some have already made it to Hinckley and Duluth.
Whew! |

I have 5 Lakers in my possession, and will be dropping 2-3 of them into the Waite Park/St Cloud area this Saturday. (KC0GRN stole Phalen from me on Sunday, what could I do?)
Let me know what y'all prefer for the rest - there are a TON of caches out here in the Buffalo/Annandale area (Thanks, TD!) but I didn't really consider seeding them because it's close to the metro. However if you want me to drop a pair here, I can do that any time, even today.
I will be in Waconia on Monday, and out west of Cokato next weekend, if you want to send me more (or arrange for pickup) I can definitely place them in the next couple of weeks.
When it's all said and done, please remove my points, I'm more than happy to run 'em out into the field to drive more activity to the game! Thanks,
-Ken |

FSU*Noles - Ruling is that you'll receive credit for 3 lakers if you distribute them from the meeting. It is to your advantage to send those out to more remote areas of the state.
Also - more than 50% of the lakers have still not been logged out of the meeting yet... it'd be interesting to see who has them all...

~20-25 have not been distributed yet and are in either RJ or my hands. These will be placed/handed out/mailed out soon.
If you have Lakers in your possession, please log them. |

Already mailed them - I didn't log them or anything and I didn't write down which ones I sent him, guess IU should have ----- sorry. I'm sure he will get them logged in and placed ok when he gets them.
I took 3 for LoneEagle and 6 for me.
My original 6 have all been dropped and now I have 4 that I took from the "Hinckley Laker Hotel". |

I just handed off 5 to WWPP to take back out west. I still have 8 to mail/distribute/drop in the coming days/weeks. _________________ [img]http://www.geocaching.com/stats/img.aspx?txt=Not+Addicted&uid=2b981b12-d55e-4f6d-ae6f-c42a83826cc9[/img] |

I'm glad I checked the site before I left... I was just going to pick up Hustler in Legoland, not realizing that Kitch is the Legoland Hustler and nabbed it just now.
Grr....

No hoarding now s4xton! Remeber, some do have to be in caches once in a while. . .
Maybe we need a rule that a cacher can only have so many in their possession at one time. Like 2. |

Not hoarding. I had 0 at lunch today, and I just picked up number 2 just 15 minutes ago. Going to log it now. They will be deployed soon.
If you want to discourage hoarding, perhaps make the drop-off point value 1 instead of 3 if your inventory is higher than 3. Just and idea.
