  1. I just placed a re-order of the Georgia version for folks who attended but were unable to get the coin. If anyone here is interested in one of these, please send me an email fatkidsotwunite@yahoo.com

     

    thanks!

  2. Our Georgia event was held in Savannah in conjunction with "Going Coastal...arrggh" which became the first Georgia Mega event the day after our event (yay!). I had multiple folks with bags of coins in the crowd and BAM! they were gone. We sold out 100+ coins in about 4 minutes flat. Wow! Cachers were happy to see AtlantaGal show up with her coins the next day.

     

    I have a couple of attendees who REALLY want one so if anyone has one they're willing to sell back to me, or trade for something else, please contact me.

     

    Congrats to all of the successful events!

     

    can't wait for 12-12-12 but what the heck are we gonna do in 2013??

    EDIT: If someone wants to TRADE a Going Coastal coin for a Georgia 11/11/11 coin, I can do that too!

  3. Savannah cachers and botany enthusiasts, I need your help! I want to identify the trees in Johnson Square, but I'm terrible at naming trees that aren't conifers (that's what I get for living in WA state, I guess). If someone can tell me what those twisty beauties are, I would be ever so thankful! <:D

     

    Those sound like live oaks, which are very abundant coastal Georgia.

  4. Doh! that is the same weekend as Going Coastal.... hhhmmmm... that could be a problem... I doubt I'm in then... unless I can host/co-host an event in Savannah...

    I'm sure we can work it out if you wanna do something in Savannah. Send me a PM?

  5. We're in for Georgia. This year we're hosting in Savannah in conjunction with the Going Coastal weekend of events. Since it's also Veteran's Day, we are planning a 'salute to veterans' regardless of the coin theme.

     

    I'm looking forward to seeing the design!

  6. Wow! What a good surprise! A mystery coin waiting for me in my mail box today after my work! And not any coin... Jedi Mickey Mystery Geocoin.

    Thanks mystery giver!!! You make my day! The force be with you!

     

    I echo that sentiment. I've never received a mystery coin in the mail until today. I saw the envelope and although I recognized the fact that it was addressed TO me and FROM me, it was a regular little envelope so my excitement was a bit diminished. Then I felt the contents. A shape! I tore it open and WOW! It's GORGEOUS!! And I was humbled.

     

    On a more personal note, this has been a very trying year with family death, feline death, finding a dead body and then 3 days ago someone very close to me experienced near death. Good news came today for the latter and then I came home to find someone had so generously shared Jedi Mickey with me - I'm so touched by the gesture! You have no idea how well-timed this surprise was for me.

     

    Huge THANKS to the coiner who thought enough to send me one of these beauties.

     

    Now, can someone please explain the postage?

  7. This summer I plan to backpack a washed out rail line through Oregon's coastal range and find and place caches as I go. A two-day power trail through the woods. :-)

     

    Exactly what I'm looking for - a trail to hike, cache and backpack camp for a couple of days (at least).

  8. I've recently been searching for caches involving trail hikes in the Georgia area. There are several nice caching hikes on or near the Florida Trail but if anyone can suggest some in Georgia I would appreciate it. Friends and I are setting up a trail in SW Georgia with 8 caches on a 1.25 mile trail but those won't be available until May in conjunction with an event. I'd love to find some that others have hidden on a trail!

  9. Invoice received and paid (yippee)

     

    As a certified mammographer, I have to agree - don't forget your annual mammograms ladies!

     

    Just last week we diagnosed a 35 year old who asked for a baseline mammogram herself. Her cancer is TINY and her prognosis is very good. If she had not requested this early mammogram, it would have been several years before this could have grown large enough to feel and then only if she was doing regular self-exams would she have found it before it had a chance to spread. Of course, by then her prognosis wouldn't be so good.

     

    Glad to watch the mail for these beautiful coins. They will be near and dear.

  10. Following the sugestion to look at post #183 , I have sent a PM to mousekakat.

    Now I see the topic is over 500 posts and people ask here for invitations.

    Is the PM to mousekakat still valid or should I ask for an invitation here ?

    Regards, Dopehead.NL

     

    oops looks like I may have done the same thing a while back (and wondered why I haven't received a message). So here goes again!
