Got my Yemon and Yime coin that he traded me for one of my personal coins. This coin is way cool. :P

 

WOW, CONGRATS!!! :P:P That's one awesome coin you were fortunate to get ahold of there, one I've dreamed of for some time now!! CONGRATS!! Couldn't have found a better new owner!! Also gives me hope that there might just be one out there for me some day.... :P

 

btw...that's Yemon Yime....not Yemon and Yime!! :P:P

lovely surprises this week Glitter, chocolate, boomerangs! and there was a gold one in the package! The mailbox has been a real treasure trove the last few days with aussie coins from Mrs CP. and Chief20r2 -

they are rarer coins so I'll take time to make some good pictures later.

A gorgeous glittery red fire hat lit up the package from Chief20r2 - we'll treasure it and share the little icon around :P This one is really special in the hand and a picture doesn't do it justice.

Thank you both so much for the gifts.

 

and my choccie coin :P Finally a sig item made in australia I am pleased to share.

I just wanted to share my Birthday experience from last night!!

 

After a quiet day of doing nothing special, TR&T w/KAboom headed out to check on a CITO site before heading to my birthday celebration at Friday's in Ann Arbor MI (about an hour from home). This celebration was SUPPOSED to be just a small gathering of my good friends the Geopigs as well as possibly Nurse Nanna and LadyBee4T..the Geopigs were the hosts of this shindig!

 

I should have known something was afoot as soon as I saw Jim (Mr Geopigs) waiting for us at the door (we were late due to construction...only about 10 minutes though), but I didn't have a clue as to what was waiting for us inside! We were directed to the rear of the restaurant, I rounded the corner to be met by A ROOMFUL of my friends!!!! WOW!

 

I was in shock, I hadn't even imagined anything like this! To have many of my friends come out to help celebrate my birhtday...WOW!! Sally (Mrs Geopigs) REALLY outdid herself this time. The tables were all festive with noisemakers and balloons and such, but the "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" greeting really took me by surprise...I couldn't even focus!! I did see a few faces sitting beside Sally that I know I'd seen before, but I didn't even "see" everyone else...must have been 20+ friends all told!! WOW!!

 

After some wonderful conversation, some GREAT food and even more wonderful conversation, the waitstaff came in with a beautiful cake (which Sally made), all the while singing and clapping! I left Sally to cutting the cake as I'm just not good at that, we ate the cake and conversed a bit more before heading out the door to find a few caches (one actualy being placed to honor my birthday)!!

 

The cake...a sheet style cake, yellow w/choco frosting (my favorite) was decorated with a yellow etrex, a travel bug and an ammo can!! It of course said HAPPY BIRTHDAY Rod and was beautifully decorated with colorful glitters and such all throughout the frosting!! It didn't last long enough for me to get a picture, but I'm sure one will pop up somewhere!!

 

Here's one of the caches we found afterwards...my post say's it all!!

;) Wow, i love your geocoin, great colour :D

 

Thanks, but that's not a very accurate picture because it almost looks black nickel - lol. Here's a little better...

Considering that's where I was born and raised, could you pick me up one of those if I send you the money or if you want to trade for something I have? Please?

i love this thread, because on the many days there is nothing in bubble envelopes in my mailbox, i can look at these great coins and just feel the joy vicariously.

 

what do you do when your coins come? i take all the coins out of their temporary bags and lay them out and look at each one individually. i really enjoy this process. then i record its arrival in the database. and thanks to those folks who really insisted that keeping track from the beginning was the way to go.

 

thanks for sharing folks!

The pictures are fuzzy but there they are.

 

 

Is that a new version? It doesn't show up on Geocoincollection.com...

 

Lots of coins don't hit geocoincollection.com. All mine aren't on there. All the data over there is user dependent. Users have to submit names and/or photos for it to be relevant.

I think it is his trade only coin. He wanted one of mine a long time ago and now that I got more coins in we made a trade. I wish the pictures where better. It's a nice looking coin. A heavy coin too. ;)

a nice today, just one coin which is cool, plus some neat trinkets from randy for sending back the pink TQ.

 

i am continually amazed at the intricacy of some of these coins. this is a perfect example. the nav egg ation coin.

I had a lousy day at work today -- started off with a nasty headache and debugging code wasn't doing anything to help it! I decided to take half the afternoon off and come home early.

 

Well, I met the postman at the mailbox and waited for him to finish loading up the mail slots. Things started looking up when he tossed a bubble mailer in my slot! After he locked up the boxes, I rushed over to see what I had received: A full house of Musketeers! Purple over Black! Pictures at eleven (I still have that headache so its time to go medicate!)
