OBW's Can Meet Anywhere, Anytime!

Here we have a collection of various OBW gatherings from many places! Are you here?

TD Lover - OBW Update

TD Lover is now an OBW(?) with no previous picture. She sent us this picture of her while she was traveling. Can any of you car nuts guess what her favorite ride may be??

OBW Member Update

I'M HAVING THAT HIP REPLACED ON MAR 24, SO WITH REHAB, ETC, THERE'S A CHANCE WE MIGHT MAKE IT TO GEOWOODSTOCK. USUALLY, WE HEAD NORTH IN EARLY MAY, BUT THIS TIME MAY BE DIFFERENT.

MEANWHILE, I HIT MY 100TH FIND IN IRELAND IN SEPTEMBER! GREAT FUN! A PAL SENT ME A PICTURE OF IT, SO IF I CAN FIGURE OUT HOW TO SCAN IT INTO MY COMPUTER, I'LL SEND A COPY.

WE'RE HEADING TO LAS VEGAS THIS WEEKEND, SO HOPE TO DO SOME (EASY) CACHING OUT THERE AGAIN. LAST YEAR, WE ADDED UTAH, NEVADA, ARIZONA AND CALIFORNIA TO OUR LIST OF STATES CACHED.

HAPPY CACHING! HOPE TO SEE YOU IN MAY.

We Did It!!!!!!! The 100th OBW(?) Was Found Today

I knew it wouldn't be long before we had our 100th member. Joe and I were at an event this afternoon and talking to those sitting around us. I mentioned this group that we had that was for cachers over 60. A nice guy across the table said he was eligible for the group. I said "no way". Well, he pulled out his driver's license and I "carded" him and sure enough, we was eligible so I handed him a membership card and said he was our 100th member. It is Pat Davis (aka Tatorsalad) from Antioch, TN. You'll see him at GeoWoodstock in Bell Buckle, TN on May 23 so we sure to be there where we'll have a special meeting for all of us. Will post a picture soon.

Lookin'Good with Hobo & His Dream

We had a surprise meeting with another OBW couple while attending a big geoevent in Yuma, AZ. We had seen that Hobo & His Dream had posted a "will attend" so we were on the lookout for them.   Despite the large crowd, lunch and many activities, we did track them down, had a nice chat and managed to snap a picture.  We hope to run into them again -- possibly at GeoWoodstock this summer.  

We're at 99-who will be our 100th member?

Now I don't mean any of us are 99 years old but our OBW(?) group has 99 members in it now. I was hoping to hit 100 by GeoWoodstock in May but maybe that will happen before then. Do you have any caching friends who would want to become a member? Just let me know.
I'm sending out membership cards to the newest members tomorrow and I've also worked on the list of members here on the blog site. Hopefully you'll use it to look up OBW(?)'s wherever you are traveling.
I'm going to be going back down to Plano, TX on March 16 for further hip surgery on march 23. I'd appreciate your thoughts and prayers during our trip and the approximately 6weeks we'll be down there. Our goal is to be back here at home in middle Tenn by May 1 so we can attend GeoWoodstock 7 on May 23. Check out this HUGE!!!!! geocaching event (GC1CG5G) and see if you can work it into your schedule. I've heard from quite a few OBW(?)'s who plan to come and maybe we can have our own meet & greet right there. It will be so nice to meet everyone.
Joe and I still have some pictures to post so will try to get that done within the next few days. I'm still hoping more of you will post your stories on here so we can know you and learn how you got into this sport and also what you are doing these days. If you are having any problems trying to post anything, you can send your write-up to NashvilleJoe and he'll post it for you.
Hope all of you have a great spring-yes, I think spring will be coming to all of us soon. It really has been a cold winter here in middle Tenn this year so we are anxiously waiting for warmer weather.
If your travels take you anywhere near Plano, TX while we are down there March 18-May 1, please let us know. We'd love to see you.
