How did you get into geocaching?
My brother took my daughter a couple of years ago and this year we got a GPS and I thought I would try it out and see what it was all about and I was hooked!

What's the meaning behind the screen name?
It was actually set up for my daughter, it was her Camp name.

Do you cache alone or are you part of a team?
Alone other than with my immediate family occasionally.

How many caches have you found and how many have you hidden?
120 found, 0 hidden.

Have you cached in other states or countries?

Not yet, plan to cache in Iowa in the early spring.

Watching movies, hanging out with my kids, walking.

The most interesting so far was I saw my first "live" armadillo in Okeeheelee South

Be persistent, it is there!!! Think of the unexpected.

Playing an internet "hide and seek" game

What is your favorite cache container?
A sewer drain!

What is the strangest thing you have ever found in the cache?
I haven't found anything I would consider strange yet.

What was your most memorable caching find/experience?
I was after a cache that was above my reach, tried to use my "tool" to grab and tipped it over and was no longer visible, didn't know what to do because I was alone, so I decided to position my van close to it and climbed on the van to make the grab!

Urban hides, love em or hate em?
Love em! So far I love all hides!

Are you planning on attending Cacheapalooza 4 in December?
And what would you like to see more of at the event?

yes, I want to attend. This will be my first event, not sure what to expect.

And finally, Garmin or Magellan?
Definitely Garmin. Got a Magellan as a gift and returned it, to NOT user friendly!
