Couldn't have put it better myself
I agree with you tarmacjohn, the whole point is the birthday celebration, and the fact that it should be suitable for
everyone - Maybe we should set 4 miles as the maximum distance, if anyone struggles to find a 2-3 mile one in the area?
Another positive of a shorter walk, is we can depart later, I think 08:30 put a lot of people off, and with 2-3 miles we could start as late as 10?
Agree about the weather, it can change any time, perhaps I could try and find an empty barn for him to let us use if worse comes to worse? (I know, from walking round the farm, there are several old barns in cracking spots) so then we would have an emergency back up venue
With hopefully one person sorting out the caches, then the rest of us can contribute to the celebration, I am going to have a cake made with the CacheWalker logo on it by the way.
I also thought, a neat idea would to do something like a secret santa - everyone brings a present wrapped up, like a real birthday, so everyone goes home with one?
Anyway, we can get to all that later
I better get arranging a good spot on the farm
