Caching Progress
A collection of articles about my statistical journey through the world of geocaching.
Geocaching
A game in which players use multi-billion dollar satellites to find bits of tupperware hidden in the woods.
More Garmin Icons
Work with Basecamp and Memory-Map brought me back to the Garmin Montana. I planned to build more garmin icons to highlight certain cache types.
Back to Basecamp
I went back to Basecamp to see if I could figure out how to use custom icons. It wasn’t so difficult.
Memory-Map
There are a few things I don’t like about Garmin’s Basecamp, so I decided to dabble with MemoryMap.
Ye Olde Survey Monuments
Ye Olde Survey Monuments was a travelling geocache dedicated to legacy surveying installations in Britain – trig points, benchmarks, and so on
Church Micros
In English villages, the church is normally the largest, oldest and most impressive building.
Dartford Heath
Trying to avoid the rain at Scadbury Park and Dartford Heath rather than heading off across muddy fields again
Big Day in Kent
A big day in Kent attempting to find a hundred puzzle caches in a single day. I ultimately failed due to the high number I couldn’t find
Elsworth Excursion
A very warm afternoon wandering around the Elsworth Excursion series of caches near Cambridge. I forgot to carry drinks.
Coming Home
A long journey home with a very early start, and a ridiculous delay at the airport.
Just what you need to make the reality sink back in again.
The Final Day
A day with no particular plans other than chilling and packing and drinking all the remaining beer out of the fridge. I increased the time pressure by going out caching all afternoon.
Back to Sagres
Our final day trip out and we were a bit stuck for where to go, so we started off by going somewhere we’d already been once.
And then we went to a couple of new (to us) and rather lovely places.
Zoomarine
It seems every holiday has to have a visit to some kind of water themed amusement park.
Praia do São Rafael
This might have been another one in the series entitled “Not a Lot Happened”. It was saved by an afternoon trip to the nearby Praia do São Rafael.
Parasailing
What could be better than flying behind a big parachute over the open ocean ?
Or looking for bits of tupperware stuck up the side of a cliff ?
Seville
Seville is famous for its oranges, although most of them get shipped to Dundee to be turned into marmalade, allegedly.
We didn’t see many while we were there anyway.
