I stopped trying to get FTFs quite a while ago. The chase for an FTF was an added bonus to finding the cache. It usually required much more luck than skill. If a new cache was approved during the night and I was headed that way on my way to work, I would give it a shot. The same was true for lunchtime caching. If a nearby cache was approved and I would have time at lunch to go for it, getting an FTF was a bonus. So without really working too hard to get FTFs, I have 130 of them.
I’m on an FTF roll. The last 3 caches that I’ve found–1 on Saturday and 2 today–were FTFs. After not getting an FTF in quite a while, it’s interesting that I would get 3 in a row.
Xmas Grinched was a 5 minute walk from my house. There wasn’t much of a race for the FTF. It’s been there since early Saturday morning and I’m still the only find. Burbank P&G Del Taco and Burbank P&G Panda were only a couple of minutes of a detour on my way to work this morning. I suspect both of them will see some visitors today.
