3rd Annual Pokagon Cacher's Campout

Kim and I went to another cache event , this weekend. The weather was perfect and it went well. I think it is funny that it is the third event cache we got a new geocoin at. That's not really fair. Geobash was a special case where we traded for a bunch. We did win geocoins at the next two. Funniest thing is that we got a bitten by the geocoin bug coin today. Someone was offering them to those who asked on gc.com with no promises. Fortunately, our name was put on the list.

Getting back to the event. the was a guy from Leave No Trace and he had a great lecture on leaving no or minimum empact on nature. I appreciated it. I don't agree with all the enviromentalists but this guy was good. He was trying to show how to limit your impact while enjoying nature. i don't agree with those people who think we should never ever go out and touch nature ever again. I beieive in the stewardship and caretaker position instead of the hands of position. I truly beieive there is a way of harvseting the animals of the field just like the crops we raise that is good for the enviroment. I know bambi is cute and some people do not want to eat deer for whatever reason, that is their choice. If they are against hunting and still eat meat, then what is more moral, eating an animal raised to eat or one that has a chance to get away.

Sorry, I am getting away from the main topic.

It wasw a fun day. Hung out with torry. Saw a lot of faces both familar and new. It was the perfect weather for being outside. There was also a lot of seaplanes coming into the park that was really neat to see. Ended the day around a camp fire and enjoying some home made beer.

Good time all round.
