Posted: Mon Jun 05, 2006 9:16 am Post subject: WeekNIGHT Caching: Wednesday, June 7th; 7:30pm |
|

I guess I'll throw this one together without any preparation. If I do another, I'll want at least a week notice, so none of this "Go for it fidian" stuff. Maybe I shouldn't have asked this week if there was a WeekNIGHT caching expedition and just kept my mouth shut. Anyway ....
According to ye olde time Google, there is parking at N 45° 06.330' W 93° 13.068'
Caches to hit:
* GCRKG0 - 12 Days of Christmas Cookie Tins (Mounds View) by King Boreas
* GCRR8C - Boreas Rex LIV (Lou Collette) by King Boreas
* GCW29C - Silverview Park: “Just ‘Cus” by DeltaMikeAlpha
I've never been here before, but I found "Shelly's Grill", and parking appears to be at N 45° 06.104' W 93° 14.264'
I'll be grabbing Moving 123 at 4:15 or so. Then I will hit the Lost Cache series at about 6:00 for Al Flynnished and to check on two others. Finally, WeekNIGHT caching at 7:30. Let me know if you want to join me and check out my later post to find coords for where I'll park at 6:00 for "Al Flynnished"
Edit: Linkify, fix parking coords, updated my late afternoon / early evening plans. _________________

Go ahead and plan something. You can either check the "newest in MN" link and see if there are some new ones nearby each other, or find caches near your house you either want to do or want to bring GP, Lucid and Myself too (since we're the only ones seeming to keep this thing going right now ).
Or you can do what I've done and make new cache's specificially for the night and make people come do your caches...that's my lazy man style

I don't have the time right this hour to look up caches, but I will do so when I get home.
Hmmm. I need some general guidelines. Should I suggest one of mine? One that I've been to, but I *really* like? A small cluster of caches? A themed thing, like two or three KB hides? Or, pick a destination place to drink and then find the nearest caches? _________________

Yeah, that's pretty much how it's been done before!  _________________ "Hi, I'm Moe, or as the women know me - Hey! You in the bushes."

Well, I finally decided on something and I've updated the first message. If anyone knows more about Shelly's, let me know. Also, Sir_Zman, are you planning on attending? I should do some research if you intend on arriving with your super-duper-record-o device. _________________

I'm skipping this week to give celticwulf a chance to catch up to me. Just kidding, I'll be in Duluth for my daughter's preschool graduation.
Have fun! _________________ Tupperware doesn't belong in the kitchen! |

Not this week. I've already done two of the three and it's just to far North for an afterwork drive. _________________ Airborne All the Way! |

I think I might have to grab Moving 1-2-3 for the event on Friday, so that might technically be number 200. _________________

That would be a cool one for #200. Get it back down here closer to the metro. _________________ Tupperware doesn't belong in the kitchen! |

Yeah, I've actually got a couple places in mind for Mendota Heights and Mendota (two places it hasn't been yet) so closer to the cities works

Well, I may hide Moving 123 at the park on Saturday and post the coordinates with my phone, so make sure that you (A) have internet access, (B) follow me, or (C) ask me politely for the coordinates. I can't just hand it over to someone on Wednesday, could I? _________________
