Each week a special geocache will be highlighted by our contributing authors.
Each week a special geocache will be highlighted by our contributing authors.
Funny things happen during our geocaching adventures... tell us what made you laugh.
Most of our funny stories, I suspect, get put into logs or on our local forums and only subsequent finders or local members ever get to see them. Please send them to TheAlabamaRambler@gmail.com to be posted here as well, let's all have a laugh!
From time to time I may see something funny in the various forums that I visit and may copy it here, figuring that if you post it in public you want it to be read. If you see something here of yours that you don't want reprinted tell me and I will take it down.
If you would like a link to your organization posted here, please contact us. All we ask is that you link back to us.
Thank you!
