ok.... here is a pic of the tribal sun that came in the mail yesterday and the celtic tree and copy that I made. -Goose yeah... the iphone isn't exactly the most user friendly when uploading pics via 3g. These were taken on the iphone because my fiance has the camera.

Hey guys... Havnt been on in awhile, but I received my red and silver Celtic tree... And somebody sent me a tribal sun... I just wanted to thank whoever sent that. I really appreciate that. I will post pictures later.... At work on iPhone.... Thanks guys!

I have a lot of fond memories with my grandma. My favorie one recently was last year when I told her that I am getting married. I was pretty busy between fulltime school and full time work. After I got engaged I took my fiance out to my grandma's to surprise her. When we pulled in, my grandpa was walking out of the garage. He looked at me and bluntly said, "We figured you would be here". I was like "how did you know". He laughed, "we have our ways". So... we went inside to find my grandma setting the table. She had made my favorite dinner of Stuffed Peppers (they are kind of like meatloaf... but with rice and spicy sauce in a pepper). They had no idea that we were coming over. We sat down and started eating. We talked about school... work... and family stuff. The whole time Ashley was sitting there talking too with her new ring on. Finally, my grandpa saw it and asked, "did you get that out of a quarter machine or what?" Ashley's face got red... I started laughing... grandpa was confused... and my grandma started crying. That was a pretty good night. Probably one of my favorite memories.

The coolest one that I have heard of around here is real spce debris... TB11DNK .... too bad somebody swiped it : /

I found TBPRY3 today in the bottom of a cache container with standing water in it. Of course, the TB chain and dog tag were rusted, but at least it can get back to traveling. It already had like 8000 miles on it. The car that was attached was not in the cache. I replaced it with an owl keychain. It feels good to find something that was thought of as lost. Has anybody else had similar experiences?

Mine has 2021 miles now... thanks to a california trip. : D

serenity NOW! serenity NOW! Sorry... couldn't help but think of the seinfield episode.

I released a copy of mine into the wild today... the mission is to make it to the southern hemisphere... and hopefully to eastern island. If it gets lost along the way I will make another copy. I just didn't want to lose my first coin : D

wow... cool competition! I would really like to go see this one day. my guess: S25 20.540 E131 02.584 Thanks!

So... I am still working on this sucker. I took the topper to the park today to see if it would fit.... nope. So I totally grinded off the extra sides... it now can sit on top of the post.... but could easily blow off without the container connected to it. I am in the process of painting the topper with primer... the second coating of primer will contain pieces of actual rust. I will probably give it at least 2 more coats of primer and then finish it off with the texture spray. I have been taking pics during the process... but I will probably post them all together.

Ok... so I went out and bought the primer and the textured sprays. I scuffed up the toppers... and I am just waitin for it to get dark enough to paint outside. Don't want my apartment neighbours to see that I am spray painting in the grass ... the grass grows so fast here that it wouldn't matter anyway... stay tuned.

Pill bottles are nice to use because they are inexpensive... depending on your health insurance plan. : /

Ok... to clarify. I want to paint an aluminum fence post topper a dark rust red because the post has rusted that color. The toppers that I bought are aluminum... which rust white. Are there any special primers or colors that should be used as a base? Sorry if I am not making much sense. I will try to post pictures when I am finished with the project.

OK so... I have found an interesting place for a park cache. I will not go into all of the details about where. I need help, though. There is an old iron (or maybe brass) fence post in the park that is being "swallowed" by an adjacent tree that is probably 30 years old. The tree is growing around the post. The post itself is covered in old rust that is pitted. The rust is a dark brow/red, but there is some green as well (which is why I don't know for sure what type of metal the post is made of). The fence post does not have a topper. So, my idea is to purchase a topper (i have already bought two aluminum toppers... one to practice on) and place a cache under the topper. The topper needs to be modded a little bit because it does not fit exactly due to the rust. My question is... since the toppers are aluminum... and aluminum rusts white... How would I go about painting a topper to match the post? Also, any ideas as to how to attach a micro container? Thanks, Goose

I like Ashallond's the best... but from the choices... #1 get's my vote.

I think that I am a type C... I switch back and forth from day to day depending on the weather. In southern Ohio the temperature can change like 45 degrees in one day. It can be cloudy all day while you are not working,... and beautiful outside when you are working. So, it just depends on the time and day.

Got my GardenGorilla Goes Bush BN coin yesterday... I don't have time to post a pic.... maybe later.

Received my black nickel coin today. It is amazing. Thank you so much! It is my first actual coin : D

Took several backgrounds to get a good macros pic... too shiny lol. Lord of the cache ring coin
