Welcome Geocachers!

I decided to start this blog to help new geocachers with some of the confusing aspects of geocaching and the website, geocaching.com.

Rain, Rain..

Not many adventures to report, I haven't been able to get much Geocaching in so far this year. Between the snow and rain I haven't had the inclination to get out in the muck to tromp around. Hopefully we will start to see some nicer weather and the swampy conditions will dry up a little. There are a handful of new caches in my area that I would like to go after, so we should be able to get out soon.
I never did get out this winter to find those few that were surrounded in poison ivy, so I either brave the stuff or wait until next winter to find them. I learned at poison ivy really becomes a problem when the plants are agitated such as being walked upon. So maybe if I take one route in and another out I will be alright. It won't hurt to be sure to wipe my feet off before getting back into the car either. 
Hopefully I can convince my lovely wife to join me more this year. There are several caches that are along some hiking trails in our area that we can find, while getting some hiking in at the same time. Here's to dry(er) weather!
