its good to be blue and not blue

Colette and I have been soaking up tons of information about geocaching. The community as a whole is stronger than it has ever been and that makes for some good reading, listening and watching.

Blueline Geocachers
Not too long ago there was an organization in our area called Northern New York Geocachers or NNYGeo. Unfortunately they disbanded just before we started caching. I was looking for a group in the area that may host events or we could discuss topics with and I came upon the Blueline Geocachers. Apparently they welcomed the previous members of NNYGeo, even though their original area only consisted of the towns within the blue line (the area on the map that the Adirondack Mountains are marked off as). If anyone in the Adirondack or Northern New York area is interested in or is getting into geocaching please become a part of this community. They have the webpage above as well as a page on Facebook by the same name.

Geocachng Podcast
This is one of my favorite places for geocaching information. They do their show every Tuesday night at 9:30est and I've been listening for several weeks. The shows are about 30 minutes long so they work well during rides to work. They cover a different topic every week and listeners can call in live during the show and share their experience and knowledge. You can also subscribe to the podcast on iTunes and the Zune Marketplace.

Geosnippits
This is a fine place for anyone who is new to geocaching or isn't quite sure what the whole thing is about. Head Hard Hat has done many 5 to 10 minute geocaching snippits to use as tutorials for the uninitiated. He has a ton of experience and is entertaining to watch.

As always I'll have these links on the right side of the blog so they're easily accessible!
