Exactly one year ago today, thousands of geocachers and explorers gathered in Seattle, Washington, to celebrate over 20 years of geocaching. The official event ended up with over 2,700 Attended logs! Was anyone from Lemmy there, too?

I drove down there from north of the border for the weekend. Spent some time exploring Seattle, finding a bunch of really creative gadget caches, and generally hanging out with some good geo-friends. I was quite impressed by how far some people travelled in order to attend. I think it's still one of my fondest memories of 2022!
The ones that drove a long way, are those RV type people? I picture people in their 50s in their Winnebago hitting every state.
Yup, lots of road trippers for sure
