+intolerable Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 3 large boxes of coins from the mint! :D woo hoo! Quote Link to comment
+intolerable Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Yesterday I received a wonderful package...well... three of them! First one that I opened had two very stunning lighthouse sample coins in them.... all I can say about them is WOW!! When Micke saw them he just kept turning them over in his hand and saying "Sweeeeet" over and over again *grinning like a big ol' bird fed cat * The next one I ripped into like a kid at Christmas was a great card from Geo.Error in the Netherlands! I got a sunshiny card with a big ol' smily face on it and a great message inside and some swag. The girls snagged the smurfs and my mother-in-law made off with the piggies, she collects them, so perfect items were sent! And finally....Oh Roddy, thank you! Rod spoiled us! Most of you know that we cache with a TomTom One car navigator...well.. not anymore! Rod sent us an eTrex so that we can cache like real geocachers, hehehe, and not amateurs! On top of that wonderful act of generosity, he sent us a handful of coins, including our first trackable pin, a couple of piggy banks - one in pink and one in blue that I'm not sure that I should show the mother-in-law, Roddy's awesome personal coin, last year's Lazy Hayes Days coin, and a couple of other really cool coins! After about a 10 day dry spell of no goodies in the mail for us, yesterday more than made up for it! Thanks everyone for a wonderful coin mail day! *hugs* Naomi Smurfs!!!! Geocoins!!! GPSr!!!! Wow! Congrats on such a great day for you! The GPSr was an especially rockin' gift! Quote Link to comment
+mousekakat Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Smurfs!!!! Geocoins!!! GPSr!!!! Wow! Congrats on such a great day for you! The GPSr was an especially rockin' gift! It truly was! Not only did Micke take it to work with him today, but he also went out in the blowing snow to grab a cache today, too, lol! He's one HAPPY camper...and Rod truly does rock!

+UOTrackers Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 (edited) What a surprise in the mailbox today! There wasn't anything for me, but there was an envelope for Bella, and it came by Royal Mail! A package for Bella isn't all that surprising given that Easter is this weekend, I had figured on little gifts from grandparents, but none of them live over the pond, so I was really surprised. I brought the envelope in the house and her eyes lit right up, she said "a package for mama!", (she's used to me getting pathtags) I said, "no a package for Bella" she said, "me Bella?" I said, "yep". She jumped up and down, she's into jumping these days, and this little dance thing I like to call a jig, fittingly. I had no idea what was inside, I wasn't expecting anything and well I was darned curious too! The envelope said "1 game token boxed." and though I recognized the name on the back, I can never be too sure because I just have seen so many names. I cut the envelope for Bella and out came a small black box... Edited March 20, 2008 by UOTrackers Quote Link to comment

People are nominated throughout the year to receive them. Reference this thread: Pay It Forward 2008 Quote Link to comment
