HaHa. Very funny. I thought we'd stumbled on a crime scene for a second or two! TFTC.

Third of three in a quick Fresno pit stop. TFTC.

My GPSr went completely bonkers near this cache. bthomas and British Invasion made the find while I struggled with it. Thanks guys, and TFTC!

After seeing the General Sherman tree earlier in the day, this spot brought us back to earth. TFTC.
By: CentralCArn Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
I thought it was 18 moles...oh, wait, that was Caddy Shack! TFTC.
By: crew416 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
Got it! Mahalo!
By: Nutlady adopted by Iseebergy Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
Tough to spot in the failing light, but we did eventually. TFTC.
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
That was a good hide. I loved the muggle misdirection! TFTC.
By: Ray T. Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Pretty quiet on the road, so I parked where I shouldn't have and we made a quick find. I liked the cave with the for sale sign nearby! And the river is really beautiful. TFTC.
By: Ray T. Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Small
Strange that the restaurant wouldn't be open on a pleasant summer Saturday night. TFTC.
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
Found a cache, and got a chuckle from reading the sign. Thanks.
By: Radikel Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
This was a very busy spot. People walking in and out of shops. Cars coming and going every which way. Fortunately the cache was in the first place I looked. bthomas' efforts in distraction proved invaluable and delicious! Thanks.
By: 2VW's Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Not chosen
This was an interesting old country store. The owner gave us a bit of its history and the story of the untimely demise of the cache's hiding spot. Although the day was quite pleasant, we were happy to get a soda for the road. TFTC!
By: geohamcash gameisafoot Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
We were somewhat distracted by all the folks arriving for a wake. Soon enough, everything fell into place. I think that's one of a handful of days I'll never forget where I was and what I was doing. TFTC.
By: Radikel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Small
I like a good cemetary cache! Thanks.
By: CacheTrooper Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Interesting spot! Good PR for the power company I suppose. TFTC.
By: nutlady (Adopted by b12edwards 9/11/08) Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular
We didn't notice the obvious hiding spot until we'd thoroughly explored that bamboo forest...in the dark. Nothing doing, of course. After a while, we realized our mistake. TFTC.
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
Last cache in Hanford. A fun place to make some finds. During our visit we ran into two cops, one paid and one volunteer, and that was pretty much it. Thanks!
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Interesting "memorial" (!?!), but I missed the ECV marker! While hunting and signing the log, a drunk guy on a bike rode by muttering nonsense. TFTC.
By: Radikel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small
We pulled in right next to the cache, and grabbed it to do the paperwork during lunch at the cafe accross the parking lot. A good spot to take a break and refuel. TFTC.
By: mountain_mmike Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
We made a connection, but being grounded, didn't get shocked. TFTC.
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular
The grill was definitely cold by the time we passed by. TFTC.
By: Munk_MGD Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
Thanks for the quick roadside stop!
By: johetyem Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Virtual
After descending a very curvy and steep hwy 198, it was definitely time to give the brakes a breather. I enjoyed learning a little bit about the people who lived here. Acorns seem like a pretty tough way to keep the hunger pangs away! Thanks.
By: bthomas Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Virtual
British Invasion and I made the hike down from the top, and milled about like ants for a few moments. Wow! This tree is definitely near the top of the list of many awe inspiring sights I've discovered while Geocaching, and a good number of those have been in the company of the owner of this cache. Thanks Ben for all the good times! Interesting to note that Eagle81 was here on the same day as we were, given that he lives just a mile or so from me back home in the bay area. Thanks for the virtual cache!
By: bthomas Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Small
Arriving with the cache owner at the beginning of a marathon day, things were all set to replace. bthomas hopped out of the car and had the supposedly missing cache container in hand in about 5 seconds. Although things have changed in the area around the cache with lots of new homes, 1000 caches is still quite a significant milestone! TFTC.
By: Kyle,Katie Tara Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Virtual
On a long trip day trip from the bay area, and this cache was one of the primary objectives. Unfortunately, we arrived after closing time. Hopefully close (within 10 feet!) counts in virtual caches just as it does in horseshoes and hand grenades. This was my first visit to Sequoia NP, and I hope to return for another visit! Thanks.

I've been to Manzanar and Tule Lake before, but didn't realize that there was an intermediate stop. Thanks for pointing out this spot and the history lesson.
By: TeamJiffy Difficulty: 3.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Heading to the edge of the solar system and beyond, bthomas and British Invasion were kind enough to allow me the time to stop off at several of these planetary waypoints. This spot brought back memories of a very similar spot close to home: 'Gustine's Sister Cache', which gave me fits as a newbie. Thanks for the memories!
By: TeamJiffy Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Took a stroll along the canal to find the cache. Thanks for this interesting series!
By: TeamJiffy Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
A final stop before heading for points unknown. It was suprisingly quiet in the park for a Saturday afternoon. TFTC!
By: Radikel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Small
I keep sticking my hands in places I can't see. More often than not, I come out with a cache! Thanks.
By: Radikel Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Given the day and time, we probably should have passed on this cache. Going in, we thought it would be a quick grab, and that we would be gone before anyone noticed. Unfortunately not. As the minutes dragged on, a friendly vendor came over and learned about geocaching. Eventually the cache was ours. Thanks.
By: DJFRANCIS Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Regular
Travelling between Patterson and Gustine, we couldn't resist a quick stop...or so we thought! The search dragged out a bit, but eventually the light went on for British Invasion, and we had a cache in hand. Thanks!
By: Gastank2 Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Other
Saturday. All quiet at the office. You must be out caching! Thanks.
By: Dutiful Pie Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Finally we discover a place with something going on at this late hour! It appears to be a night club, and every single 20 something in town is here. TFTC.
By: Photom Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Quick find on our approach to Merced. Thanks for lighting the way!
By: Photom Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
This building certainly seemed like the signature spot in town. A 1600 seat theater for a 7500 person town! That's ambitious thinking! Thanks for bringing us here.
By: HappyToBeFirst Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Yeah, those fellows who came out of the chuch in work clothes with tools were mighty curious about us. Neither of them had the temerity to strike up a conversation though. TFTC.
By: HappyToBeFirst Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
Flight control, this is . After a brief stop to find this cache, we'll be approaching Neptune. Over and out. TFTC. Edit to correct date logged.
By: treasurelane Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Regular
We saw the sign and knew that we were getting closer to the park. Those views just keep on giving. Very nice! TFTC.
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 2.5 Container: Small
I was WAAAY down the hill when bthomas came up with the find. Glad to be in a group! TFTC.
By: 2 for the road Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
All quiet around the back of the auto parts store! Just us and the eensie weensie spider! Thanks.
By: 2 for the road Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Yikes! Don't tell the health inspector! TFTC.
By: TRAKD Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Passing through. Thanks for the local trivia and the cache!
By: Photom Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 2.0 Container: Micro
Lots of nooks and crannies. Plenty of fretting over spiders. In the end, right in front of my nose. Relieved to finally make a find! TFTC.
By: geohamcash gameisafoot Hercule Poirot Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
vdbalamo, team alamo, alamogul...the name may change, but the legendary drive to cache remains the same. TFTC!
By: geohamcash gameisafoot Hercule Poirot Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Yippeekiyay! ...oh, wait, that was John McClane, a cop. Sorry. TFTC.
By: CentralCArn Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
With the fishing derby in full swing, we weren't sure that this cache would be possible. bthomas took his camera and provided cover. British Invasion signed the log with casual nonchalance, and I kept watch on the vehicle under that highway 'No Parking' sign. TFTC.
By: CentralCArn Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
Strangely enough, no fishermen today. Fortunately, this apparently soggy spot had dried up in the Summer heat, which made the searching quite a bit easier. TFTC.
By: jpd43 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
This cache took us a long time to find. Fortunately the search area was shady and cool! TFTC.
By: nuts4nuts Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Not chosen
5K, quite a milestone! An understanding spouse, perhaps even more laudable! TFTC.
By: April93 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
A quick stop before heading for higher elevations. I needed a few caches on this DeLorme page. Thanks!
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
We searched for a while, and then I noticed something that looked out of place. With a bit of tugging, I had the cache in hand shortly. Nicely done!
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Saturday night caching in Hanford. Good times! TFTC.
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
I am unclear on what was on the other side of the fence, but glad that it didn't include any barking dogs! TFTC.
By: nuts4nuts Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
Thanks for pointing out this place. Otherwise we probably would have rushed on by!
By: conehead51 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Not chosen
bthomas found the cache in a very logical spot, and then proceeded to fumble with the log strip while making our marks. Thanks for taking one for the team, Ben! TFTC.
By: mpeterson75 Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Micro
Hey! I'm an mpeterson too! TFTC!
By: redwoodcanoe Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
Definitely a surreal experience after about 16 hours caching and 400 miles under our belts. Gee only 200 more miles to go! TFTC.
By: BeamerJeep Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
We came by early enough on a Saturday that there weren't any kids to dodge. Thanks for the hide.
By: conehead51 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Small
Yup, I drove the cache mobile up right next to the cache, and got to display my backing up skills on the way out! Fortunately I didn't put it in the canal! TFTC.
By: backpckingfool Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Other
Thank goodness for those turnouts! Steep, steep, steep as we make our way up the hill. TFTC.
By: 70type3 Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
There were many great views along the highway up into the mountains. Thanks for placing a cache so that we could enjoy this one!
By: southpaw35 Difficulty: 1.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Regular
Warm night, windows on the house open, but lights off. I wondered if we woke you up! TFTC.
By: Jodeejo Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.0 Container: Other
A great place to stop for a bite (...or two...or three!) Whew, I was stuffed, but that burger was good! As to the cache, every once in a great while my cache mojo appears! This was one of those rare occasions. Thanks.
By: 50sumtin's Cow Pie Difficulty: 2.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Not chosen
Definitely the most creative hide of our very long day trip from the bay area. We miss you too, Bud! TFTC.
By: Griptoad Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
The first of the day at 8am after driving over from the bay area. Thanks for gettting our marathon day started!
By: PurpHaze Difficulty: 2.0 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Other
Definitely a unique cache container. Thanks.
By: Photom Difficulty: 1.5 Terrain: 1.5 Container: Micro
One of many during our 3 hour tour of Merced. Thanks!
