On our geocaching podcast today, we take you with us on our quest to reach 999 caches, to setup #1000 at a special place. Along the way, we chat about caching with babies - the challenges, the joys and some tips. We also have some great listener feedback on previous topics, our Anniversary show giveaway, an unusual FTF attempt AND the results of the round 1 voting on Podcacher IDOL as well as the new challenge for our remaining 3 contestants.
