This blog has moved!!!

We have migrated from the Blogger.com platform, to the WordPress platform, and hosted on our own server. The new address is http://blog.opencaching.us. Actually, this Blogger.com blog once appeared at that same URL, but we did some razzle dazzle with DNS records to keep the same address. So please visit us there! 100% of the posts in the Blogger.com era have been imported into WordPress.

Notes: Due to a major problem in Studio 1 during the live show on Saturday, May 10th, this is an edited show posted Sunday May 11th. It is considered episode 60.5 of the show, and is about 35 minutes long.

After this post, there will be no posts to this blog for a period expected to be "a couple weeks".

At some point during that period, this blog will only be reachable at http://opencachingna.blogspot.com and http://blog.opencaching.us won't work. We will announce that change at all our social media outlets. However, the wordpress blog will return at blog.opencaching.us.

An interview with Geocaching Vlogger The Ginger Geocacher

Our old friend HikerJamz alerted us last week to a relatively new face on the Geocaching scene who might be interested in being interviewed for this blog; Amber, who goes by the handle The Ginger Geocacher. We quickly contacted her, and yes, she was happy to agree to an interview with us. She joined Geocaching.com in early January, where her username is thegingergeoacher (all one word). She is also on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and of course has her own YouTube channel. Above, you see embedded what is, at the time of this post, her latest video, "It happens to the best of us Geocaching", when she went out Geocaching on the Birthday of the hobby (May 3rd). We are also embedding another one of her videos at the bottom of the post. On with the interview!

Geocaching (NOT) taking a beating in from Government Officials in North Carolina (part 3 of 3) guest commentary by DeBaere

Courtesy of Julian March/Star News Media www.StarNewsOnline.com
Above is Lodge Road on The Holly Shelter Game Land, about 15 miles NNE of Wilmington, North Carolina. There are about 600 Geocaching.com listed caches on The HSGL, The Bling Shelter Power Run (link to first cache in the series), which is generally considered a roadside power trail (over half of them on the road above). Game Lands are used primarily for hunting of course, and are administered by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commision.On April 19th, an article came out in the Jacksonville Daily News alleging that "Geocaching draws the scrutiny of state officials" for caching on that State gamelands, as found here on the web. Not really a bad article, and a founding member and current board member of the North Carolina Geocaching Organization was interviewed. But one cannot deny the negative connotations of the attention grabbing headline! Geocaching is under scrutiny? Why? Who told the reporter that? We noticed commentary on this article by well known North Carolina based Geocacher DeBaere (Dave DeBaeremaeker) on Google+, and asked if he would let us post it here as "guest commentary", to which he graciously agreed. Read the article first of course, and then his excellent opinion piece below.
