28-30> > -> At the SLAGA Christmas Party, a group of us (mainly Gerhardus, 
Lancelot, and myself but several others have expressed interest) decided that 
it was time for another caching road trip. Perhaps other cachers from the St. 
Louis area would like to go with us in one form or another. Gerhardus (John) 
suggested caching the Quad Cities of Davenport, Iowa, Moline, Illinois, Rock 
Island, Illinois, and Bettendorf, Iowa. The number of caches in the Quad Cities 
is exploding and we think that area is ripe for a good old fashioned numbers 
run. The dates for this cache run happen to be December 28, 29 and 30, 2007. We 
will be back in time for New Year’s Eve at home. The tentative plans call for 
leaving the St. Louis area sometime during the day on Friday, caching our way 
through Springfield, Illinois and then over to the Quad Cities area. Once in 
the Quad Cities area, we plan to stay at a hotel near our first Saturday cache, 
cache all day Saturday, stay overnight at the same hotel, and then cache our 
way back on Sunday. I ran a pocket query for the area using these options:> >

Hybrid, Webcam, and Earthcaches. (Yes, there ARE a couple of Earthcaches!)> >

all since I have not previously cached in that area.)> > Terrain: less than or 
equal to 2.5> Difficulty: less than or equal to 3.0> > Caches centered on 
waypoint: GC15772 (An Earthcache!)> > Again, anybody free and wanting to go are 
welcome to join us for the fun. I think a realistic goal of the trip would be a 
hundred cache finds or more. Let me know if you are interested joining us.> >
