Nomesquad

My December pretties Wish I could get a mailbox full every month!

Its gorgeous! Hope I've got some money when they're done Interested to see what other colors you put to it too!

Happy New Year! (Count me in please!)

So very sad I hope the next minter will do better and have your beautiful coins to you in record time.

Dr. Neal - YES! It was the first thing I checked on when back to life again. Thank you!

Hi everyone! I've been a little bit absent lately, life went crazy on me. Back to almost normal for about a month now. Figures I'd miss out on the holiday missions, will have to make sure I'm not on hiatus next year. I'd be very willing to send out some more Nomesquad Kitty geocoin trades for personal geocoins, or anything cool from my want list up there ^^^^ a few posts if anyone has anything nifty to trade while I have a few more weeks to myself. Happy Holidays and Happy Caching!

Oh no! I hope you can get the issues sorted out. I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished coin!

That's very cool! Looking forward to a trade when your coins are ready

Hehe thanks. I think the email monster is eating replies sometimes

The coins are in! I'm officially ready to start trading them to expand our collection... The Nomesquad Geocoin was minted in May 2012 and is trackable with a custom icon (you can see it here: TB57A1J), and Mrs. Nomesquad is the one who drew the design. A kitty lover extraordinare, there's nothing quite like having known the love of a cat. The purrs, the meows, the snuggles, the cute little antics - it just melts the heart. Our 16 year old resident queen of the bed is named Abbey, and is a gorgeous brown tabby with an adorable pink nose and striking yellow-green eyes. Abbey lays just like the kitty in the design, one foot hanging out. She's a true soulmate. We also have a 2 year old longhaired silver tabby named Maya, and one angel kitty, Kaeli - she was an almost 14 year old calico that passed the day after Christmas. I'm looking for trades for our Nomesquad Personal Geocoin for the most part. Our wish list is pretty simple and can be found here in detail: Nomesquad's Geocoin Wish List Nomesquad Geocoin Dreams List: * Personal geocoins from other geocachers/teams - would like to have a description of the motivation behind having the coin minted as well. We love a good story. * Cat, kitten, kitty, meow, or anything that purrs geocoins. * Gnome geocoins * Dragons Individual Geocoins: * TARDIS Geocoin * WolfPack Geocoin (Any Color) I'm willing to sell a few of these coins - if you're interested in a purchase rather than a trade the prices are $10 each, with $3 shipping in the US and $1 each additional coin. Payment by Paypal. For international shipping - I'll have to take it to the post office and have it figured unless someone can guide me on what's standard. I've only had to ship holiday gifts overseas before, never just envelopes with cool coins. PM or convo me and we'll get it all sorted out if you're interested. Thanks!

2. How many caches did we find on our busiest day? 38

1. How many geocaches did we find total? From 1 pm on May 19th to midnight May 28th. 327 I'm jealous, I want a vay-cache-ion

3. We found our 5000th cache this last week. How far was it from our home? Answer x.x miles (less than 10 miles) 2.4 miles Thanks for the cointest! (And congrats on 5000!)

I'll definitely be looking for trades with them for other personal coins, cat coins, gnome coins, or for a few coins I've got on my wish list. I might be able to be convinced to part with a few by sale rather than strictly trade. I'll let you know when they're in my warm little hands and ready to go

I woke up to find photo samples in my email box this morning. They are gorgeous! Getting closer to having them in my hands for trading, I can't wait. I need to get busy and get the icons finished this week! Once I know that they're on their way, I'll be ready to start lining up trades if anyone is interested

Same issue here currently, using firefox - no caches on the map.

That's it. I'm moving north asap. This baked or fried stuff is just too crazy for me.

Its like an oven out there. I still want to geocache but I can't bring myself out in the almost 100 degree heat to go do it. Lots of water, short and sunscreen.. maybe a stop for a slushie on the way through town - any other ideas on how to beat the heat and still get some caches found?

This is what I've acquired in the last couple of weeks as my keepers. So proud! Hey, we all had to start a collection somewhere, right? I love getting geo-mail! It makes the days between finding caches a little more interesting. (edit: typos - I kant speel)

We're just starting out on the collecting side of geocoins. We've seen and moved a few in the wild, and were amazed by the artwork. Having said that, we're not made of money unfortunately - and the collection needs to take a definite direction out there with so many coins appealing to so many varieties of tastes. I know we have a list of interests for geocoins that we'd like to add to our collection and a vast many of them, while beautiful pieces of art they simply don't appeal to us. Ours has to be a collection with a purpose and focus, if that makes sense. I think there's still a market here, but I definitely wouldn't try to do it as a money making venture, that's for sure. I guess its all up to why a person collects.

That is truly a special coin, I'm sure I don't have anything worthy of a trade for something that heartfelt and meaningful. You've done a great job.

This is awesome. I hope I'm lucky enough to find one someday, I'd proudly hang it on our geobag!

So excited! Off it goes! Its been such a pleasure to work with the person in charge of minting. They'll be trackable with their own icon by the time they get to us. How on earth am I going to sleep while I wait for them to come in? Next stop, in our hands

Get out of the city. Urban lamp posts are not what geocaching is all about.

Can you find some way to work it into earning a badge of some sort? That'd make it more relevant to your troop(s) and also keep the commercialism out. Not so sure I'd want to go to an event that was "come to our geocaching event and buy a bunch of cookies!" even though I totally love the cookies. One doesn't much relate to the other. Having said that, I've bought 5 or more boxes at a time when I was grocery shopping... the power of the hunger always wins
