Space Rangers - 7/29/19

I had a wonderful trip to California last week and found lots and lots of great puzzle caches.  Just as fun, though, was the chance to meet up with some of the creative puzzlers that I have corresponded with over the years.  I've started the process of writing my logs, but it will take me a while to do them all.  Even the DNF's were not all bad, because I as I log them I enjoy thinking about the puzzles again and even making my way to GZ at all was a fun experience.  I put a nice dent in my "solved" list, but there were many more that I didn't get a chance to look for. Here's a recent one that I wasn't able to get to, but it will remain on my list for a potential future visit:

Geo Heartbreak - 7/26/19

Here's what Ol'Fogie has to say for us today:

I recently made my first trip to North America’s left coast, traveling with

yomegranate, JackTN and the non-caching member of the fam affectionately

known as MuggleBoy. We did a few days in Portland and Seattle getting the

Trifecta of HQ, the Ape Cache and the Original Stash. We also ventured into

British Columbia and hung out around Vancouver for a few days. While there, I

hammered out some really nice puzzles. This was one of my favs, even though

it revolves around:

A Turbulent Love Affair

TARDIS - 7/25/19

Here's what Ol'Fogie has for us today:

Time And Relative Dimension In Space (TARDIS)

I stumbled across this South Carolina gem while working on a puzzle from the

Going Caching mega event a couple of years ago. I’m not a follower of the

 series, but it didn’t take long to figure out what needed to be done. And you’ll

 recognize it immediately if you are a fan of...

Doctor WHO?

Gridlocked - 7/24/19

Another posting from Ol'Fogie today, while I'm off on my cache-cation.  He says:

There are lots of grid-based puzzle types out there. But a fellow cacher brought 

this North Carolina diddy to my attention the other day and I had not seen this

 type before. Given the method to solve it, the grid could really be any size

 depending on what you wanted to tell the solver; this one just happens to be...

Summer Vacation - 7/23/19

I'm on a little geocaching vacation so I'm going to let Ol'Fogie take the wheel again for me for a few days.  Today he brings us to an "alarming" cache from California:

I assume that most of us have a checklist (even just a mental one) of the things 

we examine when trying to solve puzzles. Dissect images, look at page source 

code, check for oddly used words, Google stuff, etc. And every time I come 

across a new way to hide coordinates, I add that to my puzzle-solving...

Man on the Moon - 7/20/19

I have enjoyed following all of the historical coverage of the moon launch and landing this week.  I was only 8 months old at the time so I don't remember Apollo 11, but I do have vauge memories of watching some of the coverage of one of the later trips (probably Apollo 15 or 16).  If you have the time to watch the actual 4.5 hour rebroadcast of  CBS' coverage from the morning of the launch (including commercials and other news of the day), I think you'll find it highly interesting as a record of that time.  Today's puzzle finds us in Paris for a bit of:

Hue betcha!

Ride the Rails - 7/17/19

A Week with Lamneth - 7/8/19

Longtime readers may remember my fondness for the puzzles (and hides) of California CO Lamneth. He has a real talent for finding interesting locations and creating caches and puzzles to fit them.  I'm always sure to check the street views of my solutions to see if I can spot the connection.  In hopes of traveling out that way later this summer I recently binge-solved a bunch of his most recent ones, and am happy to be able to share them with you throughout this coming week.  Let's start off with the newest one:

Tomorrow, we'll continue our week with Lamneth.
