First of all, this is a very cool contest. Thanks to MRJIFFY for organizing this.
I got a hold of coin 49 about a week ago. I wanted to find the perfect place to drop it, so after some thought, I decided that a short drive into the country side would be good.
There is a cache hidden near a Memorial dedicated to Canadian Soldiers from WW2. It's a rock near a country intersection that I thought would be a good location. On the rock there is a plaque that tells us of the hardships our soldiers had to endure and the strength and bravery that was demonstrated by Canadians. The location of the cache is near an old training ground that was used during WW2. Unfortunatly, after about 45 mintues searching, I was unable to locate the cache.
I then decided to place the coin in a location that has higher traffic so that more people would have access to it. I dropped it in Season's Greetings, which is located in a busy park. I hope the next person that finds it has fun searching for a new temporary home for it and maybe learns something new and inspiring along the way.
Now the sad part, I took pictures of the coin and the Memorial on my cell phone. When I went to download them, I discovered that my SD card was corrupted and I lost all the pictures. I will not be posting any pictures, but I wanted to share this story.
Thanks again for contest and the adventure.
