[Az-Geocaching] intro stories

[BOBBI JO CLAYWELL]

Hi Raymond - I saw that same show, and talked to my brother about it - the 
next thing I knew, he had purchased us both Rino's so we could chat back and 
forth while driving or hiking, and we were both into it.  My brother, Cabot 
(Chopper73) doesn't log his finds much, but he goes frequently with us, and 
to some caching events.  He's a helicopter pilot for Papillion at the Grand 
Canyon, and on his off weeks he runs a flight instruction school here in the 
Valley.  Funny how a little old TV show can get you out from in front of the 
TV and into the great outdoors, huh?

We don't do a huge number of caches (150 or so in 2.5 - 3 years), but we 
enjoy it.  Plus, for part of that time, I was pregnant.  :)
