[Az-Geocaching] Who needs a GPSR

YEA! GO DIAMONDBACKS!!! (Stomped them darn Yanks 9-1 !!)

Sorry everybody, I couldn't help myself!

Just to warn y'all, we have a cache up here that in my opinion is less than
optimal.....Flash went to the Miller Creek cache (west of Prescott), and the
only thing in it was a copy of a book and a tape authored by the cache
hider. (He fancies himself an expert on the trails around here) The first
finder placed a camera, of all things! And Flash added a coveted YCJeepPosse
button. Other than that, nothing. So, if you don't care about what you find,
no problem. Otherwise, now you know.
