This sounds fun!!

ask them to delete their log, other wise, do it for them

I received one of these today and it's just beautiful. Great job done on these coins!

Congrats to those who did get the coins. I hope those that aer angry and bitter about missing out can put in in perspective soon enough. I would love to get one, but i'm not losing sleep over it. As for those who bought a few to do whatever with, good on ya! You had to work with the same system, burps and all, to make your purchases. I really hope anyone who fired off angry emails, etc to some of those who were successful are big enough to wake up tomorrow and send another email of apology. Do we all need to join hands and sing Kumbaya?

'Tis real. C&P posted another thread about the sale

Nope. Coins and pins post explains this.

Congrats, BigJohn!

Hey thanks, islander! I may have to go buy a lottery ticket tonight!

I've heard of that happening a couple of times too. Icky.

Woo hoo! NOt only did I get post 68, but I've found this thread very therapeutic Maybe that's the counsellor in me talking?

A friend of ours found a baggie with a note from a hunter thanking him for the ammo cam when he went to check on a cache of his once

We live near a lot of marshlands here and we have seen a few caches hidden near dykes or in tall grassy areas that are active nesting spots. We avoid these in spring and summer and hold off until late fall when all nesting birds are long gone. A friend of ours found a trampled nest and dead bird near one cache, very sad.

I had to stop taking our children to some hides around here, as they were never maintained. The boys would be all excited about the "treasure" but often times, we would find wet, mouldy and rusted junk and the boys would be upset. Disappointed kids sucks!

Example 2 from big NS series. 80 metres of uphill, ctrazy bushwhackng for a camoed micro in an evergreen tree. Why bother? No chance of a muggle ever finding that one, I guess...yikes!

We did part of a big series in Nova Scotia. Many were quite nice and quick grabs off of a very quiet old road. However there were a couple that weren't so fun. Example 1 - Once cache was hidden by a big rock that was INFESTED with ants. Biting ants. Good thing i had my pants tucked into my socks (also tick country) as I had to literally brush off dozen of them. Some made it up to my arms and shoulders before i got them off!!

I've noticed several of my friends lately have made attempts at red or green jeep tb's while in the states and many have already gone missing. TB's that are not in the cache can be marked as missing by the cache owner too! I wish more cache owners would take the time to mark TB's and coins as missing!!

The same cacher usually has caches that require very difficult hikes and often times the end result is a dnf for the person. The hikes may include several hundred metres of bushwhacking and even river crossings and rock climbs. (Although, many people do LOVE the hikes and the challenge of doing/finding one of these caches).

I have also seen a cacher who criticizes micros at every cache, yet hides regular containers with nothing other than a logsheet and pencil. No swag at all. How odd is that?

Recently near here, a cacher had their cache and a beautiful folk art metal sculpture taken by muggles. Inside the cache was a TB with tag and the muggle actually logged the TB saying that they would now rehide the cache near their home. Doh!

ALso, I had a TB being held by a cacher for over 4 months. When I wrote them a nice note to ask if they were going to move the bug and even offereing to pay for postage to return it, I got a very rude email and a week or so later, they placed the bug in a remote cache. Luckily, the cache was found again shortly after and the bug rescued.

I had a cache bulldozed as well. Oddly the finder who logged about the cache being destryoed saod they took the log book and left the rest. I went to go find the remnants and sure enough, only the log book gone from the rubble. Odd...

Sweet! Who knew that liking the bengals up herein New Brunswick would ever pay off! Thanks for the cointest, email on the way!
