I came out by my lonesome today on a quest for my 700th cache and log my first Wherigo cache. I started off the day hoping that either this Wherigo or "By the Numbers" would mark my milestone. I honestly didn't know what to expect on the Whereigo but learned fairly quickly. Well, I grabbed my 698th one on the way to start the Wherigo, and came across an M&M hide while on the Wherigo path. Also met another cacher (tdelisle) on the route (though I don't think he was doing the Wherigo). As I finished stage 3 of the Wherigo, I looked at my GPS and saw that your letterbox was literally within 25 feet of me! So I asked myself do I skip the letterbox and go on for the Wherigo as number 700? Of course not!!! I made the quick find there figuring the milestone is not about a particular cache but rather the journey, trek, or adventure you take to get there. Fortunately the final stage was in the direction I was wanting to go so I made my way toward the cache, circled a bit, and made the find. Woo Hoo! First WherIgo Cache under my belt and on my 700th cache adventure. I had a real nice relaxing time out in Oakridge today (even placed one of my own). Thanks for the great adventure.
