Bristol Motor Speedway

I am down in Bristol this weekend to watch the Bristol Night Race, if I have any down time I will try and find a cache.

Edit: seems the gps here in TN is acting up, I can only get about a thousdand meter accuracy, this is going to be tough.

Bike Stalker

On Thursday I was six hours into my homework when I had an urge for ice cream and a cache. I called my buddy Mitch, who has gone caching with me before, and asked him if he was up for it. We decided to get Monster sized milkshakes and then moved out to New Palestine Cemetery. When we were on the way we cut through the highschool parking lot. While we were there we got stuck behinde a biker, finnaly breaking free and entering the cemetery, we went pretty much straight to the cache. On our way out we passed the biker whom seemed scared to see us.
Sorry for no picture of the container my phone died on the way, this was taken on Mitch's phone.

What was there?
There wasn't a lot because the cache was a micro but there was a pencil sharpener and some other small toys

What did you take?
Nothing

T-Minus 2 Weeks

I plan on getting my cache ready to be hid in two weeks, I have a couple of locations in mind and I am still testing my container (so far so good). I am going to Bristol next weekend and plan on doing a cache in Tennessee.

My Dry Spell Has Ended

Today my family decided to go to the park and walk on the newly paved trails. I knew that there was a decent amount of caches inside this park (I had my previous find here). Seeing as c:geo has had some problems recently with getting caches I had only one stored on my Android so I decided to find Katie's Kiddie Cache. It was a relatively easy find and was very well maintained.

What was there?
There was a couple of stuffed animals and a trackable (that I did not realizes was a trackable until I got home) and a Starcraft 2 trial key.

What did you leave?
While I took the Starcraft 2 trial key I left nothing, the trial key is not usually something a geocacher is interested in.

Quick Little Grab

This morning I had to run my brother to the doctors, other than almost over sleeping things went well. On the way home I asked if he wanted to stop and do a cache, he said "sure". So we decided to stop at WDIESTCC - Cemetery. It was a quick uneventful find other than my camera broke (again).

What was there?
There was some silly bandz.

What did you leave?
I took nothing and left nothing (I wish I found more things worth trading). Signed log and left.

This cache was hard for a different reason...

So today I decided to retry the Mt Lebanon cache that me and my girlfriend tried on a whim as our first official cache to try. We found it this time no hitch other than one, and this one was frustrating. We found the cache in about 5 minutes of looking, pretty nice location. My girlfriend saw a Daddy Long-Legs and about lit the leaves on fire running out of the woods. I always take pictures of the containers to post on this blog but I was in a hurry due to a storm brewing over-head. When we got to my girlfriends house after the cache I wanted to upload my pic to Facebook but noticed that the file was corrupt. We then decided to go back and take another picture, so we hopped in the car and drove (about a 2 minute drive) and walk back to the cache and get it out of the woods and take a picture again. This time I got back in the car and looked again, and again it was corrupt. I restarted my phone and snap a picture of my girlfriend making a funny face and made sure it saved. Then I walked all the way back the cache and took five pictures just to be safe and two on my girlfriend's iPod.

What was there?
There was 12¢, a fake spider (bright pink), and a climber's clip

What did you leave?
I took nothing and left nothing, signed the cache and left.

PLANNING: Buying Membership and a GPSr and more thoughts on my hide.

It's all about membership!
I plan on buying a Premium Membership by the 30th of July. Even though I only have four finds I love the sport so far and I cannot wait to go caching, I was planning my day for tomorrow and lost track of time and now it is 2AM.

GPSr
Also I have decided to buy a GPSr, not going to name which one because I don't want 100 comments about how this one is better than that. Thanks to Asgoroth for helping me decide.

My Cache
I have been thinking a lot about the cache I want to hide. I want it to be good, really good. I know that the size and other criteria of the hide cache but a great hide is 99% of it. I am sticking with an Ammo box, thinking about adding a 3 month subscription to Geocaching.com and the FTF.

If you have any thought post them in the comments bellow, thank you.
