Last Week..

No Geocaching last week. But Doctor D went to the snow dome. BananaSource has decided to learn German, using the DuoLingo App.

Feedback..

(must be read in your best American accent ever)Howdy y'all YEE-HAW!

First of all I must acknowledge what a mighty fine job ya did copyin' us 'muricans 'n the funny way we talk! That's right we'all sound like we just hopped off a buckin' bronco, and 'bout to lean back on the porch with a nice cold sarsaparilla!

Kinda reminds me how all y'all over there in Britannia sound the same! Ya know, like "jolly good" and "Bobs your uncle" and referring to your car as a motor and it's trunk a boot!

The boots I'm used to are full of cow pies and have a set of spurs slapped on!

Any'how, y'all got a great show there, mighty funny and some great cachin' tips! Keep up all the great work!

Hope to see ya out there on the trails some day! So long pardners!

Ask Doctor D..

From redbeard4570

ASK DOCTOR D! I have been using www.project-gc.com to discover some fun and interesting information on my own caching history and that of others. So here is my question for you. What is the elevation of the highest and the lowest geocaches you have found? Use project-gc to discover this information and see if you can find the same information about me. redbeard4570

Marriage Proposal Mapped Out By Portsmouth Jogger's App (from BBC.co.uk)

He explained he had run about 15 miles (24km) in total, but had the GPS tracking turned on to spell out the lettering over 5.7 miles (9km).

Mr Chudley told his girlfriend he was going out for a run before posting the map on Facebook and returning, with flowers and a ring, to hear her response.
