    Thank you for choosing what I said as the "winner"... it was one of the worst days of my life, but it does have a happier ending in a way.

     

    I've gotten help both spiritually and through professionals. and I have the most amazing/OMG story from this as well which I'd like to share with everyone.

     

    After everything calmed down from that day, I started looking in the obits of our local paper to see if I can find out at least the name of this young man, which I did. His wake was that night and I felt it necessary to go to it, if only to get the vision of how I found him out of my head and to see him how he would have looked.

     

    While preparing to go to the wake, I decided to open the cache for the first time (which I removed from the scene at the police request), to my astonishment and believe me, this is no word of a lie... sitting on top of the cache contents was a pewter angel!!! I grabbed it and took it along with me.

     

    At the wake, I found his mother and pulled her aside to introduce myself as the person that found his son... I explained to her what I was doing out there and then told her what I found and that I felt that she should have it... what really blew my mind is that she told me she received an angel every year for Christmas from her son. She was convinced that this was from him!!! WOW... she then took me around to the rest of the family/friends and told them my story and what was left in the cache... something I wasn't expecting to happen at all... I was expecting questions to be asked that I couldn't answer. All I received was hugs and thanks for finding him.

     

    I still talk with his parents on a regular basis and have become very close with them as well... through tragedy we've made a bond that will last

    52 PICK UP - The Mission/Cointest - Pick a Card, Any Card

    in Trackables

    Posted

    Mission 2 was sent and recieved to summerandnana

     

    If this mission does not return, I will add everyone to Mission 1

     

    How is that gonna go for those that have their name on both missions???

     

    Well, if mission 2 got muggled, no one will get it, so Those on mission 1 will stay and I'll add those from 2

     

    What else can I do ????

    Opalsns

     

    Not quite the question I was asking... I'm asking about those (including myself) that are on both missions... I'll use myself as an example...

     

    I haven't received either mission yet, and you move the mission 2 names over to mission 1. Would that mean my name appears twice for mission 1 seeing as I was on both missions?

    Just wanted to share the scariest moment while caching as well as in my life... I'm not going to get into details as it is inappropriate to do so on here, so if you really want details, I'll share it only via e-mail.

     

     

    I was caching in 2008 and not 10m from GZ I had come across a young man that had taken his life earlier that day

     

     

    Just letting people know that it DOES happen... if you've experienced anything like that and haven't talked to someone to help you through it, e-mail me and I'll be there to listen as I know what you're going through or have gone through

    A coin made just for natural disasters?

    How about a Generic 'Red Cross'???

     

    Listing the types of natural disasters on the reverse??

    Might be something worth while investigating... I may try to draw something up within the next day or so to see what it'd be like... I have ideas floating around in my head already for that

     

    As stated in another post the likelyhood of using the Red Cross symbol are about slim to none. Understandably so they are very specific on the use of their logo.

     

    Use of Red Cross logo guidelines

     

    I wonder if there's a manufacturer out there that'd be willing to donate the entire cost(s) of production so 100% of all sales could go to the red cross... if they could... maybe the red cross could be approached in using their logo(s) on the coin seeing as there'd be no profit to be made by someone else...

    St. Johns NL must do caches?

    in Canada

    Hopefully you will also have time to visit Cape Spear, which is not very far away and worth the small drive. While you are there, finding "Cape Spear Light" and "Extreme East" (the most easterly cache in Canada) is really just a bonus to seeing this spot.

     

     

    Not only the most easterly in Canada, but in North America!!!

    GSAK screwed up

    in Website

    Posted

    I'm going to guess he is referring to pasting the output from some GSAK macro (FindStatGen) into his profile page.

     

    It's a general problem for FindStatGen macro users....but it's not clear whose issue it is.

     

    It's only been since the site update... I updated my profile this afternoon prior to the change and it was fine... after the change... not so much
