Lots of "things" to see up there. I used to stay in Chattanooga frequently on business, and there are a lot of neat parks and historical sites in that part of Tennessee and Georgia. But for me, the next 6 weeks is a tough time to try and schedule a trip like that. You also have to get a "compatible" group ... e.g., I don't have much interest in driving that far to do drive-by micro's ... I would want to do the more interesting locations. Others may differ. Maybe the best way to set up something is to get a few folks together with the same general interests, and then lay out the plan and open it up for others to join in ... this has been done before. Do the Tennesse cachers have something like our "Outstanding Cache Awards" of other ways of identifying the really good ones?

COrey and I will try to post good comments tomorrow as we go to Chattanooga to try to get 40.


There is an unofficial rule in California that anytime a cacher finds 50+ in a day while away from home, he is obliged to pay a "geotax" by placing a cache of his own to thank the locals.

This might be a good practice to start here.

The Middle Tennessee group has put together a greatest hits list, it is not all inclusive, but is certainly a good place to start. You can find it at: http://www.mtgc.org/hits/

As far as geotax goes, I would be happy to place caches in Atlanta, but wouldn't that run afoul of the "Vacation Cache" rule. I did place one at the Tennessee Welcome Center on I-75, I hope that one will count.

I would also like to expand BBB invitation, any of the rest of us would be honored to hook up with our fellow cachers the next time you get to the Nashville area. Once again thank you for placing all of the great caches around Atlanta, we really had a blast hunting them.

Hey Thorney1,
Just let me know when you p[lace that cache up here and I will watch it for you. You do know that I will need to be the first to find to watch it right? Wink
