First I got one from the guy who owns the island cache...
email:
Scorch07 had this to say:
Hey! I suppose you're officially the first finder or my first cache haha! Thanks for the amusing story and tips. I figured the coords were off, we have a not-so-great GPS that is pretty much never right (seriously, I've been right on top of a cache and it was telling me it's 150ft THAT way, oh wait, that's most of the time). Maybe someone else confirming it's wrong will help justify a newer one haha. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it and was able to find it.
On that note, did you by any chance note the good coords? I'll definitely fix the entry if I can get enough coords that are around the same spot.
My response:
Email:
No I didn't. I was told by the Lacy's that if you find the cache... the coords were good enough. So I didn't take any. I thought about it though.
Yes. I was the first to find, but I am not a big fan of the FTF hoopla. It just happened to be the closest to the house. I found it yesterday evening and when I realized I was still first, I decided to let the FTF Hounds get all worked up into a frenzy. It's mean, I know... but they are pretty ridiculous. They forget to look at the scenery and the hunt becomes a job. too bad. It was a really nice island and a really peaceful walk ... except for the speedo briefcasers.
Then I get one from mo-mo (he's an idiot cacher that I have never met)
email:
"Suuuuuuckers" YOU TEASE!!!!
that's all it said. which annoyed me. So I sent one back
email:
Nope not a tease... Just a more thorough cacher.
Interesting how 2 people I have never met can illicit 2 different resposes from me. One nice and the other... not so nice.
UPDATE****
I got a response from mo-mo ...
Fair enough.
Was all he said. I think he finally realized he had just poked the bear and was lucky he came back with his arm.
