If you’re one of the regular North County Cachers you already know I enjoy entertaining with a little close-up magic. I call it preparation for my retirement career, post-geek. It is hard to imagine a hobby more geeky than the crap I already do for a living but I guarantee you I have found it.

Both of these tricks were performed for the launch of the “52 Pick Up: Throwing Down the Deck” mass Geocache launch during the summer of 2008. I did another 4 or 5, too for the kids and over 150 adults in attendance. If you haven’t gone after this prize, there are 52 Geocaches hidden around North San Diego County, each named after a card and containing a clue to the location of The Joker. 13 of us teamed up to create this awesome puzzle, modeled after a similar bunch in Northern California. The card tricks just seemed to fit the event.
