DNR TBM DLK 16, 1987

This benchmark and waymark is near the Dekalb County Courthouse. Kinda neat. It's not the normal disc benchmark and it is by the IDNR instead of the usual groups that do benchmarks. The other neat thing it that we only had a description of the location instead of the coordinates. Makes for a different hunt. Changing up the game is getting more important to us. We are not the top finders but we have been around long enough that some elements of the hunt is getting too familar. Notghing wrong with that but just needs to be spiced up and changed around to keep interest.

Dr. Who

One of my most favorite b grade sci fi shows is Dr. Who. The best Dr has to be Tom Baker. His best companions has to be K-9 and Sarah Jane. My favorite episode is the seeds of doom or the brain of Morbius. Enjoy the video.

My Fortune Cookie told me: You could consider that it is too late to write to the government about your grandfather's threshing machine. Get a cookie from Miss Fortune

WAymarking is like eating chips

I have noticed that if I submitt one waymark, I am going to submit a bunch of waymarks. It is either that I go out and find several new locations or I come across a category that fits a bunch of waymarks I have already submitted. I felt wierd and a little dishonest when I started double submitting some locations. Felt a little like cheating or numbers running. Now i look at it more like cross indexing a location. There are at least two locations that I know that are benchmarks, courthouses and on the National Historic Registry. If someone is interested in only one of these categories and I don't list it there then they c ould miss out. It just amazes me how much easier it gets to find waymarks to post. Granted, there are more and more categories and I am getting into the mindset of looking more but it seams like the more I post waymarks, the further away I get from saturating the area.

Waymarking Category for Blogs

I got finished submitting some waymarks for my wife's and I's team account when I decided to look at the different waymarking categories. When I saw a category for blogs, at first I did not think much of it but then I got to thinking that it might be interesting to see how other people who share this hobby do their blogs. It did not take me long to see my initial react was too quick. I like the idea and will be surfing through the category and the blogs as I get time. Might be a neat windeter project or during some down time when going out caching or waymarking is just not going to happen. I hate saying that but sometimes life interferes and I can't go play or else another fun comes along. Anyway, I did add my blog to the category and have hooked on the category. I will be lokking into them more.
