  1. Congrats Bev! Your story was a great one and you will make an awesome Secret Agent. :D

     

    I have to admit that after being chosen yesterday as the Agent for Mission #4, I had that song in my head ALL day long and was grinning from ear to ear. :D

     

    Looking forward to the new missions and seeing who the GSA chooses as his/her accomplices!

  2. Thank you for so many different and fun stories. The agents have selected a winner for mission # 4. The cacher will be contacted and may post if they like. MISSION # 5 in the works now. Stay Tuned.

     

    WOW, I am honored to have been chosen as the agent for MISSION #4!

     

    Thank you GSA!!! :ph34r:

    Secret Agent Creacher

    Reporting for duty!

  3. I have a Earth Turtle V1 Silver Green, a Silver Purple, and a Polished Gold Green and Black (all unactivated). I am will to trade ALL THREE for an unactivated 2007 XLE Two-Toned Compass Rose (not the Antique Silver). If you are interested, please email or PM.

     

    I thought V1 Earth Turtles were all the same except for the metals... :lol:

     

    in the gallery the 2008 Earth Turtles are listed as v1, and last years are just listed as Earth Turtle.

     

    Thanks for the clarification. I guess there are a couple of versions of the '08 turtles? :ph34r:

  4. :D:( :( THANKYOU!!!!!! :D:ph34r::lol:

     

    I received the beautiful Dove of Peace in my mailbox yesterday! Plus a list of international words for peace and 'Imagine' CD by John Lennon. I have adored this coin from the moment I saw it, and the message it sends.

     

    Thankyou so much 'Ima Gine' you spreader of Love and Light :D :D

     

    Congratulations Liz and to the others that have recently received this beautiful coin!!!

     

    Wow, this mystery coin giver really knows the community and is choosing some VERY worthy recipients! :(

  6. I had been to find a cache at a local park and turned away when I realized it was on the playground which was FULL of kids. A few days later I was back in the area and decided I would try again. Like before, the playground was crowded with kids and their parents all sitting on the benches looking over them.

     

    Knowing that a grown man climbing on playground equipment would look rather strange to the parents, I had to come up with a cover to accomplish my mission. I quickly reached for my clipboard, put some misc papers on it, grabbed a tape measure and headed towards the playground.

     

    I began my search immediately, walking around and under the equipment looking at the likely hiding spots and pretending to make notes. I spotted the cache, retrieved it, and signed the log. When I was about to return it, I was confronted by one of the Moms wanting to know exactly what I was doing. I introduced myself as Robert Price - County Playground Inspector and told her that it was my job to check all of the equipment and make sure that the nuts and bolts were not coming loose and that everything was safe. She was actually thrilled that the county had such a position and thanked me for doing my job.

     

    She returned to her bench and I returned the cache to it's hiding spot, continued to take a few more notes and then headed on my way. Another mission accomplished! :)

  7. Myself and 2 others were finishing up a huge multi-cache about midnight one night. The final led us to a drainage area (rock pile) off a parking lot for a 24 hour convenience store. The establishment was PACKED at the midnight hour.

     

    We arrived, surveyed the area and waited for our chance. Finally the muggle traffic in the immediate area of the rock pile subsided a little and I was designated as the "agent" to make the find so I snuck in for the search. As I approached the area I knew I was being watched by folks, so I just shook my head as if to be disgusted/upset about something. Once at the area, I went to climbing over rocks, flipping them over and looking all around, paying no attention to the muggles.

     

    Sure enough, within 10 minutes of my search I heard - "Hey buddy, whatcha lookin' for?" and I just grinned as I began my reply, the conversation went like this:

     

    Me: "Oh, just looking for my keys."

    Muggle: "Your keys? Down there?"

    Me: "Yeah, guess I learned a good lesson though."

    Muggle: "What would that be?"

    Me: "Don't make your girlfriend mad!"

    Muggle: "Oh man, I can surely feel your pain - you want some help? My buddy's got REAL good eyesight!"

    Me: "Thanks, but no. I got myself into this, guess I better get myself out."

    Muggle: "OK, good luck. Dont irritate your girl no more."

     

    By this time, I had found the cache, so as soon as he turned, I grabbed it and dashed for the truck. We signed the log, waited for another moment of very little muggle activity and I raced back out and replaced the cache.

     

    No one ever knew exactly what we were doing... :)

  8. Congrats to all, but especially to jAY miLLS as this coin is perfectly suited for someone like him.

     

    If you have never taken the time to read the story behind his personal coin, do so and I think you will agree!

     

    Congratulations my friend. :(

  9. GSA-Thank you for spreading cheer.

     

    I completely understand your decision for V2, perhaps a new coin to send to those who truly make a differnece in the geocoin world? These people would be much less likely to profit from your generosity, and at the same time you would be giving to those truly deserving of your kindness. Just a thought.

     

    After numerous e-mails, PM's and this particular post I WILL reconsider making the V2.

     

    Thank you for at least thinking about making a V2 coin.

     

    When I first started collecting geocoins and stumbled into the forums, the GSA geocoin was the very first "mystery" coin I had ever heard of. Even though I never obtained one, I absolutely LOVED checking in each day to read about the adventures of those that had found them. At times this thread would read like a good mystery novel with folks going out in the middle of the night in search of a recently dropped GSA coin, detailing their adventures along the way.

     

    I think Hula Bum's suggestion was spot-on!

     

    Again - thank you for reconsidering.

  10. Wow, as Eartha says, "step away from the forums for a little while and look what happens!" :laughing:

     

    I wasn't even aware that there was a new mystery coin floating around until I picked up my mail today.

    As always, I did the quick check of the return addresses and noticed a few expected trades arriving,

    and then noticed the bat wings and my own return address on one! :laughing:

     

    Sure enough, the Dark Knight had paid me a visit ... coin #004 is safe inside the Creacher's Lair now.

     

    Thank you Dark Knight - you have certainly made my day!!! :D

     

    And after finding and reading through this thread - CONGRATS to all of the "detective" recruits that have also received this mysterious coin!
