  1. Today is my Gotcha Day. Four years ago today Mom (LadyBee4t) brought me home to live with her and I have been pampered ever since. Mom likes me best because she told me and only me I could have a cointest. Molly's Gotcha Day was March 14 and Layla's is November 9 but I get to have the cointest. Woof Woof! The prize will be an 11-11-11 coin from Michigan. Here's what you have to do. I want to hear stories about your coining and caching adventures. Happy story, sad story or in between. It can be a story about you or from one of your caching friends. If it has a coin in it somewhere that is so much the better. BUT a new story. One that you haven't posted here before. You can post three separate posts per calendar day. The cointest will end on April 22, 2012 at midnight EDT Mom will use a random number generator to pick the winner..I still can't talk her into the cheese chunk method that Heineken and Logan used to use. BONUS: You will win one additional entry into the pot if you can say what the "sort of a milestone" was that Mom hit this past weekend. One additional entry if you can say what Mom is going to do on Sunday so that the cointest can't end until late that night. (She has the final say on what the answers are going to be for the bonus rounds.) This means that you can post 12 separate stories and if your 2 guesses are correct you will have the potential of 14 entries. Any questions? Let get to the storytelling......
  2. Mom said that she couldn't find the Canadian Geese (coin) to send back to you!
  3. We were getting ready to go to Grandma's house when mom (LadyBee4t) called me and said "Riley you have some mail" Me? Mail? I never get mail so I ran over to see what she was talking about. Sure enough an envelope to me all the way from Sweden! I had her open it and it was a very nice card with two puppies on it. She found a Hot Dog coin! I LOVE hot dogs so this was a great idea. Next was a HunnyBunny coin. I also like bunnies but mostly to chase. But this coin is very sparkly and beautiful! I also received some stickers and maybe I can talk mom into putting them on my bowl to make it special. The little chocolate Santa didn't last long after these pictures cause Mom ate it. I gave Mom the bee to put on the side of her computer. THANKS Grodan & Fiabus! I am guarding my mission! The card and coins and stickers and everything! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
  4. Mom used the random number thingy here. Random number generator. I told her to put in numbers 1-28. The machine spit out #18 so SgtMikel send mom your address and she will get your coin out soon. At least as soon as she can since her car is sick right now-very sick. I said I wouldn't help her figure out how to post the page to show who won. She is still trying to figure it out but she did print it out so maybe she can get that online. Thanks all for playing we loved your stories and pictures! Woof Woof Riley
  5. Such is life. GO WINGS!!!! I'm posting for my Mom LadyBee4t cause I won't let her have any more 'puter time right now. I like the Wings too!!
  6. Where are the humans that don't have pets? I want to hear their stories too about caching experiences and animals. Come one you humans are you going to let the pets post more than you? Woof Woof
  7. I was looking for a gift card for my son who is living in France. I saw one that the shipping charge to me was $79.99!! He stated right in the ad why he was doing that (because of the fees that ebay charged) and said basically if you don't like it then don't bid. This is ebay's way of getting those sellers that do that. Ok so Riley posted for me LOL LadyBee4T
  8. My brother Pepper is also at the Bridge. I know that he will show you the Gravy Lake if he hasn't already. I'm sure that he spends a lot of time there. Mom says she has many buddies at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for her but she told me that they will have a ton of fun there until she meets up with them again so I don't have to worry any that she will leave me. I believe her because Moms are always right! Don't tell her I said that though It's just between us doggies.
  9. I asked mom and she said yes she knew your name is Nikos! the answer to both those questions is yes! I am looking forward to hearing your stories!
  10. That sure looks JUST like the evil squirrel that bit my sister Molly. I told that little *@$%@** if he ever showed his fangs around here again that I'd show him who was boss.
  11. Guess what guys? Today is my very own Gotcha Day!! April 19, 2008 Molly had a cointest for hers and I told Mom (LadyBee4T) that I wanted to have a cointest too. I begged and pleaded and looked at her with my saddest eyes and finally she said ok! Since Molly already asked about Gotcha Days I am going to ask something just a little different. I want to know how you Gotcha Name! Some of you may remember how I got my name Riley. Mom had you guys help her pick it out! She ran a cointest “Name the New Rock N Roll GeoDog Cointest! Join in the fun and lets dig up some oldies but goodies!! “ You can read it here. My Naming Cointest Here is my handsome self on my gotcha name day Here is my handsome self now. All you furry cachers out there tell me how you got your name—either your given name or your caching name. I LIKE birds (hee hee) after all I am a bird dog so they can play and rabbits can play because I like them too. Molly wouldn’t let cats play because she doesn’t like them. I myself don’t know much about them but I guess it’s ok if they play. For any human that isn’t lucky enough to have a pet they can tell me how they got their name so they can play too and not feel left out. BUT if you are one of those EVIL squirrels there is no way I will let you play. Those evil squirrels stand there and swish their tails and tease me and I don’t like any of them at all! Rules, Rules. There always seem to be rules. I will use Molly’s rules. --I want to hear how you got your name in your first post for this cointest. In all posts after that tell me a story about you and your human going caching or having fun. --You humans without a pet tell me a caching story about an animal you saw or something that includes an animal! --You pets have to tell your story from your point of view not your human’s just like in Molly’s cointest. If you need to know about that, check out the site Bad Dog Chronicles. No humans allowed there without being accompanied by a dog! I know the humans will have to give up some computer time to you so you can tell me all your stories. Tell your human that they need to give you computer time. I bet they will be interested to hear your side of it! --Any animal can play and tell the story the way they know it except the squirrels. No siree no squirrels allowed at all!! --You can tell a story twice during a calendar day. If you are really nice to me and maybe give me a belly rub or a treat you can tell three stories a day! --Tell stories of stuff you have done. Good stuff, bad stuff and in between. --Pictures are good because I like seeing all my buddies. You don’t have to post a picture though if you don’t want to. --Cointest will run until Sunday April 24 at midnight my time EDT --I wanted to choose the winner by the cheese method that Heineken and Logan used. Yummy!! But mom said I would eat it all too fast and she wouldn’t know the winner. She said she will use one of those thingys online that picks numbers for you. Darn it!! I was so hoping for some of that cheese she hogs for herself. If she can figure out how to do it she will post a picture of the screen shot of the thingy here showing the winning number. I told her that I won’t show her how to do it that she has to figure it out on her own. --Prize for the winner is a 10-10-10 Michigan coin. --I probably forgot something and will have to add it but I'm sure mom will tell me all about it because moms are that way. Ok all you guys out there start writing!
  12. Mission Riley the Geo Dog 1. Participating: Yes 2. Received Name: Yes 3. Mission Complete: Yes 4. Package Received!: Yes! The doorbell rang just a bit ago and the mailman handed mom a package. She said it was for me. I'm a pretty good dog but I admit I barked at the guy. Hey I just wanted mom to know that somebody was there! Mom is being a meany though and says I can't open it until we have the tree up next week. I know there is something that smells good in there. She put it up too high for me to reach--darn it! Thank you to my secret santa and I promise to have mom takes some pictures if she is fast enough Woof! Woof!!
  13. Lorca It sure sounds like your mom had a wonderful day! AND you received the Dutch Lion coin too!! Great day for both of you. That coin is beautiful and so are you my friend! I think I'm in love...... Puppy dog kisses to you and your mom too Riley the GeoDog
  14. In a recent mission lorca received a great mallard duck toy. I said I was going to ask my mom to buy one for me too since I am a bird dog. Well lorca decided to send one to me! My mom told me I had a package and I wondered what it was. It smelled great too. She opened it for me and inside I found a card that looks like lorca and a duck and a bag of treats and also a package for mom!! She told me it came from my friend across the big pond so I wanted to swim there and play with lorca and say thank you. Mom told me it was a very big pond and much too big for me to swim. Here is the package when Mom showed it to me. I gotta tell you that the treats didn't last too long! Mom's package was a geocoin. One side has a dolphin on it and she said she hadn't seen one before. I think she loves it! My handsome self waiting to play with my new toy. Can you believe that Mom made me wait so she could take this picture? I started to play and discovered the duck squeaks. I think I like that! Isn't lorca great??!!! Thanks again lorca and your Mom....Paws and puppy dog kisses to you two!!! Love Riley the GeoDog
  15. By popular demand COINTEST #3 Mom recently bought something for me and Molly. I'm not sure yet if I like it or not. What is it? Be sure you put in that safety phrase!!! RULES 1) First of all you need to know that Mom is LadyBee4T and she will decide the winners. 2) No editing at all or your post won't count 3) Each post needs to have a safety phrase like those in the TWR cointests that go on in that thread all the time. Phrases can be Look Twice for Bikes, Wear your helmet, Wear protective gear and save your Rear, and those type of things to help promote biker safety. Don't forget your safety phrase because even if you have all the right answers your post won't count and remember no editing either. 4) 10 minutes between guesses so if you make a mistake it will take 10 minutes to fix it! 5) I'm the only one that is allowed to whine! 6) Hints may or may not be given at any time 7) All the answers must be in the same post along with the safety phrase to win.
  16. Riley i sure don't understand you. Maybe i most call Error 38 caches 0 dnf I just mean don't count the event itself just the number of actual caches and the dnf ones for each of the events. You are doing welll!!! Does that help? She did find at least one cache at each event so that is another hint.
  17. Mom finally woke me up from my nap to give me the next question so here it is.... COINTEST #2 Over the last month or so Mom has attended several events. I want to know how many caches she found and how many she didn't find for the 3 events below 1) Detroit/Belle Isle Year IV GC1K85E # found # DNF 2) GeoChicks!! Celebrate!! GC1MPNG # found # DNF 3) April Monthly S.E. MIGO Meet & Eat GC1N6VE # found # DNF I'm going to start you off with a hint too. I think you would like to know though that it could be tricky for the Belle Isle event. You see the old caches are archived the day of the event or the next day. The new caches are raffled off that day for the FTF and the coordinates for all the new caches are available that day but aren't published until the next day. Soooo that means the day of the event you can hunt for both the old caches and the new ones. Same rules as before and be sure you put in that safety phrase!!!
  18. Remember all answers have to have a safety message in them like TWR
  19. Much to Martha Reeves chagrin it wasn't held in the city of Detroit.
  20. Look in my thread for a few cointests which I hope will benefit Todie's Wild Ride. Come over and take some guesses.....
  21. I just finished my doggie cookies and ice cream and I want to continue to celebrate. You see, one year ago ago today Mom adopted me and brought me to my furever home. Yep its furever because she says the fur is everywhere. To continue to celebrate, she said I could have some cointests! She told me that some of the questions will require research and some just guesses or luck. She has a bag of coins and will grab one out for each winner. Some are trackable and some not. Any trackable coins awarded I will activate and ADOPT TO THE WINNER since this is an adoption cointest!!! We hope that you will enter those coins in the Todie's Wild Ride contest where you will have a chance to win more prizes. Todie's Wild Ride thread We can help you set the coin up correctly if you want. Mom told me the rules and these are the ones I remember. I think they are similar to a lot of other cointests but pay attention!!! If I forget a rule she will let everyone know. RULES 1) First of all you need to know that Mom is LadyBee4T and she will decide the winners. 2) No editing at all or your post won't count 3) Each post needs to have a safety phrase like those in the TWR cointests that go on in that thread all the time. Phrases can be Look Twice for Bikes, Wear your helmet, Wear protective gear and save your Rear, and those type of things to help promote biker safety. Don't forget your safety phrase because even if you have all the right answers your post won't count and remember no editing either. 4) 10 minutes between guesses so if you make a mistake it will take 10 minutes to fix it! 5) I'm the only one that is allowed to whine! 6) Hints may or may not be given at any time 7) All the answers must be in the same post along with the safety phrase to win. She just handed me the first question so here we go. This should be an easy one. Woof Woof COINTEST #1 Since her last cointest she has attended another concert/show. 1) What is the name of the contest/show? 2) Name both the venue and the city and state where it took place 3) How much did she pay for her ticket? Have fun!
  22. Ah don't give up! Mom is going to come back here soon and give more and more hints. You got the biggest one so far!! And you do know two of the performers AND the date is narrowed down....... Its 5 O'Clock somewhere in the World!! She told me that....
  23. I am barking at Mom because she made a major mess up here. This concert was before she saw the Who. That should really narrow down the date to help you guys out.....
  24. Mom is playing this song right now and she told me this old fart played that night too. This concert that she went to wasn't too long after she saw the Who when they played MY song!
