  1. I will be in the Fort Carson area on the first weekend of May. I am coming to do a Spartan OC race on Saturday and Sunday but will have some time after the races to do some caching. I am looking for some interesting ones to do since I will be in a beautiful area and would be a shame to spend the time on p&gs. I plan on doing the oldest one in Colorado if I have time to get there but what others are there to do. List me the GC numbers to check out so that I can make a list. Hopefully there might be a event that same weekend that I can try and make it to. Thanks for all the help to make this trip a fun one. I also will try and hide a couple caches in the area if any local cacher might be interested of watching over it for me and replacing logbooks if needed.

  2. Joe, email me your address, I have a coin to donate that will look very familiar to you.

     

    P.S. Looking forward to meeting you at MOGA 2012!!!

     

    Got your coin in the mail. Thanks for donating to my halloween event. I just sent you a coin in the mail lastnight. Thanks again.

  3. Just a holler-out: I got called out of town and my mailing has been delayed.

     

    It will be in the mail tmorrow!

     

    (I didn't want you to think it wasn't headed your way!)

     

    Got your package of coins in the mail today. Thanks so much for helping out with the raffles at my event. It really means alot.

  4. Send me your address and I would love to donate to your event too. My geocoin is not trackable but it is collected by many. Sounds like a great event. :wub:

     

    Thank you so much. I got the coin in the mail today. This should make someone happy. Thanks again.

  5. Hey Joe,

     

    Unfortunately I dont have a coin I can send but I would be more than happy to make up a couple of my Handmade signiture items for you with the name of the event on the back.

    Got a package from Barstow CA. I am thinking this may be you but it only has a last name on it. If this is yours, thanks so much for the coins that you sent me for my Halloween event. This is really making for a great raffle. Thanks again. :D

  7. Joe...sorry for the delay, but I got your coins in the mail this past Thursday. Can you please let me know when they arrive? Thanks! diane

     

    Got your package lastnight. Thanks for sending the coins for my Halloween Event. You are going to make some cachers happy that night. :D

  8. Since everyone here has always reached out to help me whenever I've needed it, it is now my turn to do the same...

     

    Please send me your address and I will send you at least one geocoin for your Halloween event...

     

    ps. I loved your costume at the ET Highway event!!!

     

    John, thanks for sending the geocoins for my Halloween Event. I got the package in the mail. This helps out alot. :D

  9. Send me your address and I will send you some.

     

    Shipped today. Sent an email with the tracking number.

     

    Thanks Joan. Your package came in the mail and your thoughtfulness on the six coins that you sent for my Halloween Event is wonderful. I know how people like to win stuff and you will help make the evening for several cachers.

  10. WHY? This portion of a post in another thread (http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=282534) made me wonder why.

     

    The whole post, by Droo:

     

    Make sure when you name the coin that you include the word Proxy in it. That tells cachers hungry to find the real deal that they will have no joy here and not be disappointed. There have been too many stories of how angry folks get when they are disappointed to the point of throwing your proxy coin in the trash. Not nice, I know but something to consider. Proxies are a fact of life so if you properly label yours as such you CYA.

     

    Unless they wanted to steal the coin and add it to their own collection, why would they care whether it was a real coin or a proxy? I realize the people most likely to know the answer are the least likely to give it here, so I guess I'm really just asking for speculation. I move trackables the same whether they are real coins or proxies, whether they have the original TB tag, or the "official" copy, or a homemade one. True, when I see a beautiful real coin, I do admire and enjoy it more, but it doesn't really matter to me. When I see proxies, it mostly just makes me sad that we can't send out something nice without having some jerk stealing it.

     

    Amen to that.
