Much like last year, this year isn't any better. We lost my Uncle Mike (aka Duck) the other half of Duck-n-Deedy. Just a little over a year after the passing of my aunt. He's probably most famous for hiding the Oregon DeLorme Challenge. We did a lot of geocaching together, both of us had started geocaching independently around the same time. My dad told him one day about my crazy new hobby one day and I think that weekend we went out and found 10 together, which in those days was a lot. I went and saw him one last time a few months ago. He was recovering from open heart surgery and sounded goo ..read more

I thought about stopping this tradition and letting this old blog slip away into the murking waters of forgotten internet where old blogs go to die, but here I am with one more yearly update. Just as a tribute to a couple of fine geocachers we lost in 2021. Kelly aka BIGGIEET_AL and my aunt Diane the second half of Duck-n-Deedy.  Kelly was the first geocacher I ever met in the "wild" and we had a lot of great adventures together.

I've had it lucky. For one I'm already a loner so social isolation isn't so hard on me. Second, I am lucky to be able to work from home a lot of my time. Even when I was in the office I was usually by myself. Despite so ..read more

Another year and another blog post. Like all years there was good and bad, but mostly I can't complain. It had good moments like the Blazers playoff run last season and bad moments like the entire start of this season. I spent a whole day in the ER with a kidney stone, but at least I wasn't dying like I thought I could be when it started. I was able to find a lot of great tokens for my collection. Didn't find a single geocache, I did sort of look for one last week... so maybe one day I'll try it again. Highlights for the year include: Seven years of Blazers Season Tickets (despite the bad sta ..read more
