+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted December 3, 2005 Author Posted December 3, 2005 I sure like the SCUBA cache! wow! (it doesn't affect the ability to win -- it's a draw, so everyone keep entering!) This fall I am beginning my National Geographic Divers course, -- so maybe one day I'll head down there and see that cache. (of course, that will require much more training and experience than my 1st-level cert) Thanks for the post! Quote
+ltleelim Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 As planned, my wife and I went on another geocoin safari today. We only did 4 caches, but we drove over 150 miles, had a nice hike, visited a strange little barren urban park, explored the solar system, solved a difficult puzzle, and found 5 geocoins (including 2 unactivated geocoins!). I will only mention coins that we finished moving today: I dropped off one of nielsenc's Thanksgiving geocoins at The High Road. My wife (mjleelim) dropped off a California wooden nickel at Planet Mercury. We have too many coins in our possession now, but we didn't want to concentrate them in only a few caches. We'll be spreading some of them around the next time we go geocaching. Lloyd Quote
+PassingWind Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 San Diego Geocoin dropped here: The Devils Dropoff 3.5/4.5 Quote
+Big JohnP Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) San Diego Geocoin dropped here: The Devils Dropoff 3.5/4.5 Man! Is that the special icon for that coin? I want it. Edited December 5, 2005 by Big JohnP Quote
+Thrak Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 When will you be drawing for the winner? Quote
+Team Rampant Lion Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Added three more coins as prizes here. Quote
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted December 10, 2005 Author Posted December 10, 2005 When will you be drawing for the winner? I thought I'd give it a couple more weeks. Quote
+ltleelim Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 I thought I'd give it a couple more weeks. Oh, I thought you were going all through December. I guess it doesn't really matter. My wife and I did our first deliberate night caching tonight. (We cached at night once before, but it wasn't planned.) This cache has a special "firefly" that helps you at night. I dropped a nielsenc Christmas geocoin at A Rose Is A Rose Is A Rose. We will finish moving several coins this Sunday. Then next weekend, we will be driving down to Anaheim and moving a few more coins along the way. Lloyd Quote
+Team Maddie UK Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 We went to a christmas meet yesterday and there were just too many coins there so I dropped of a German coin into GCR6WG Not at home, Not at work, At Play where I knew it would not accidently get put into anyones collection but be able to keep moving.

+nielsenc Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Left another Geocoin in a cache tonight: nielsenc Geocoin Quote
+Mystery Ink Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Left another Geocoin in a cache tonight: nielsenc Geocoin Doubt I will make it there on time but look forward to doing the cache. Quote
+Saving Shiloh Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Am I too late? Here's my entries: http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...bc-65f8902e6018 I dropped a GWS III Replica in it, and if that doesn't count, I dropped aColorado geocoin in there. -SS Quote
+Lazer Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Maybe I'm not too late. I placed a 2005 USA geocoin I had been holding for a while in a cache yesterday so it will hopefully move along soon! I Can't HEAR You! Quote
+BisonWoman Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 I gave away an Iowa coin at the Coin Quest Meet, Eat, and Greet event I hosted Dec. 3rd, I placed a bronze BuffaloWings coin in my Rivertown cache as a FTF prize, and I gave an EU coin and a Compass Rose coin to a fellow geocacher who helped me by observing my students in a class and giving feedback. I'm planning on releasing one soon and see how far it goes before it disappears, but I haven't decided which one yet. It will definitely be a trackable one. Quote
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted December 11, 2005 Author Posted December 11, 2005 not too late at all! keep coins circulating Quote
+Team Wolfsbane Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 Placed: HERE and if this counts all ours: HERE Quote
+jamrasc Posted December 11, 2005 Posted December 11, 2005 I released a Red Handed Coin into a letterbox today. It is our coin, Don't Steal Me!! is it's name. I put it into GCRF3H. Quote
+ltleelim Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 My wife and I finished moving 4 geocoins today. (They were 4 nice coins too.) It was an interesting day. After we finished the second cache, my wife locked my keys in the car. It was a challenge just getting back into my car! Made all the geocaches today look easy in comparison. I dropped an unregistered California geocoin in Secret Trailhead #21 - Sausal Creek. We picked this up last week from Where's the benchmark?. I dropped a Mount McKinley geocoin in Missile View. I dropped a Mount Everest geocoin in Inca Gold: Last Words. My wife (mjleelim) dropped off another unregistered California geocoin in Wholesale Cache. We picked this up last week from The Man in the Middle. Lloyd Quote
+f0t0m0m Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 I set up tonight to drop the following into caches during the day tomorrow....1 each of GOWT, Iowa, San Diego, Wisconsin, Georgia, Seven Summits...all the caches will be in the Lancaster/Palmdale area.... Quote
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted December 13, 2005 Author Posted December 13, 2005 Okay! This post will bump the topic to the top of the forums -- the contest ends when this topic falls off the first page (as determined by my sporatic visiting to the forums) I suspect that will be sometime at the end of this week Quote
+ltleelim Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 It might be better if you picked a date to end on... Because my wife and I have been moving coins every weekend lately. We would have been hunting for new geocoins anyway, but we probably wouldn't have bothered picking up 3 USA geocoins on Sunday if it weren't for this contest. As I mentioned earlier, we're driving down to Anaheim this weekend. (Disneyland!) But now we're making a little detour through Palmdale... Lloyd Quote
+Thrak Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Keeping my fingers crossed for the prize! Quote
+KarelKraak Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 We placed an Iowa-coin here last weekend. Early december we contributed an un-activated German coin as our gift for the Surprise event. Quote
+CENT5 Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Local cacher FunnyNose contacted me Monday before he left on a 5 week trip to Australia. I sent 8 trackable and 6 non-trackable coins with him to iconify the Aussies and leave them in caches. I also loaned him my M10B V3 coin to share with the Aussia cachers. Quote
+junglehair Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Okay! This post will bump the topic to the top of the forums -- the contest ends when this topic falls off the first page (as determined by my sporatic visiting to the forums) I suspect that will be sometime at the end of this week Not too soon, I hope. I plan on releasing at least one of my New York coins, and perhaps a couple of the extra coins I have like Iowa, MIGO and North Carolina. I just need to find the time to actually go caching! Quote
Not So Lost Puppies Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 I also have a couple coins that I will be releasing this weekend. Have one already activated and packaged up for travel http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=272050 Quote
+Team Wolfsbane Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 HEHE, Just making it stay up so i can release more coins. Quote
+nielsenc Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 I left this German Coin in a cache last night: http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=204255 Quote
+rowanf Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 Somehow I missed this thread until now! *laugh* Since 11/26 I have only put USA Geocoin RF#3 in GCRGJQ on 11/30/2005 and USA Geocoin RF#2 in GCGXZR on 12/14/2005 I have not yet found a geocoin in a cache to move along, so these are both releases. Quote
+Geo Dee Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 I'll go ahead and count this as an entery -- 5/5's are special! In that case, I have four entries: TBMCF8 placed into SRT - Single Rope Techniques (GCK5TN) TBMDMN placed into Orange Crush (GCPHJ0) TBMEY2 placed into Under the Waterfall (GCG1MB) TBFEF7 placed into Last Time in '05!.... 8:30-10:30! (GCRDT2) Quote
+junglehair Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 oops, did I just bump this thread? My coins should be released this weekend. Quote
+bikinibottomfeeders Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 I hope this contest is still going tomorrow. Quote
Not So Lost Puppies Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 Dropped this one yesterday: http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=272050 and dropping another this morning. Quote
+Katydid & Miles Stone Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 We dropped off the DE Geocoin at this awesome night cache. Shroud of Shadows Quote
Not So Lost Puppies Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 dropped these two coins today: http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=112726 Our own coin that we just released: http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=255323 Quote
+ltleelim Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 On Saturday, my wife and I did some more geocoin hunting on the drive down from Northern California to Southern California. We found 3 new geocoins and finished moving 2 other geocoins. Our first detour was to the little town of Prunedale. We had a nice little hike to a nice hiding spot. I dropped off a USA geocoin at Prunetucky. After a lot of driving, we took another detour to Palmdale. It was dark by the time we got there, so we walked in the dark in the middle of nowhere to get to Dry River. I dropped off another USA geocoin here. We continued on to The Haunted Forest (Night Cache) Part Two, which involves some difficult night orienteering. Bushwhacking in the dark is definitely a challenge. We're now enjoying a break at Disneyland! Lloyd Quote
+DancesWithMoose Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 (edited) I placed Spencersb's Geocoin Travel Bug and Seven Summit geocoin in Sherri's Cache Edited December 19, 2005 by DancesWithMoose Quote
+rowanf Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 (edited) My Gypsy coins are in and I just couldn't wait to put one in a cache! This Gypsy coin, was released into the wild at a local TB hotel (GCGVTP). I had heard about this cache for awhile... it is inside a coffee shop and wouldn't be approved under today's guidelines... but it is a nice big, safe hotel for traveling bugs. Edited December 19, 2005 by rowanf Quote
+welch Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 oops, did I just bump this thread? My coins should be released this weekend. Bump? what bump? Quote
+Doughball Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 I put a Boys of Ladycacher as a FTF prize in this cache. I have a Maryland coin ready to go as another FTF prize. Hopefully I can get the land managers to approve that cache before the drawing. Quote
+welch Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Nothing really impressive but they're out: This Caght Red Handed went to cache gcgv2f Not really an interesting story, but it as with all caches in sight of houses you feel out of place. Especially near a road... and of course this set of tracks in the snow following me everywhere I go . This Iowa went to cache gcr13x. Going to this cache requires a short trek along a very open area. The snow varied from an inch to drifts above my knees. On the way back I stopped to make a snow angel but the snow had crusted over from the sun the last couple days so my angel looks more like someone fell over and had an epileptic attack then got up and left This "NYGO" went to cache gcpehe. Normally a very easy cache, but since the main users of the park right now are icefisherman with 4x4 and snowmobiles not all the roads are plowed (or that well). but I did make it to usuall parking spot ok. Finding the cache was a lot more fun because the location is fairly nondescript so grabbed a 4' ice probe off the shelter at the top of the hill thinking I'd use it in my search. But instead when i got close to the cache I looked around trying to decide where I should probe first. Selected a location and stepped forward basicically right onto the cache (Don't worry its an ammo can, no damage done) This United Kingdom went to cache gcpx06 Lets see what haven't I said yet? I took a detour along a frozen backwater pond in an attempt to hide my tracks from the main trail, but nothing happened (sorry I didn't fall in or anything exciting ) Also, there was snow on the way in, snow around the cache, and yet more snow on the way out.

+3 Bubbas Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Since I like your coins so much, I better get entered in this contest. I placed one of your 'Red-Handed' Coins in the cache Stash n Dash The coin is in there as a 'gift' all nicely wrapped for someone to find during the Christmas break. I comes complete with the Sheriff card and everything Here's hoping I am the lucky one. Thanks Lemon Fresh Dog. Quote
+kusanagi Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 I recently visited (GCQZ1W) Fallen Giants where I traded two coins. Not sure if it count's, the coins did move though. Quote
+junglehair Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Ok, I placed 2 coins out in the wild today. First was Junglehair's Travelling New York Geocoin, and the other was a Delaware coin. Here's my log Quote
+PassingWind Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 I placed an unactivated San Diego Geocoin into this cache as an FTF prize: La Cucaracha Rio 3/4.5 Pure evil........... PassingWind Quote
+bikinibottomfeeders Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Finally i can post a coin drop! I activated my very first geocoin today! No i mean it the very first one i got... I dropped my Maryland geocoin in this cache Turkey Roost Cache I had a blast out caching with my buddy prairiepartners and decided that a cache that has a round trip of 3 miles is worthy of my first coin drop. Thanx for the entry in the contest and finally getting me to activate a coin! bikinibottomfeeders Quote
+Team Wolfsbane Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 Christmas time im having trouble getting out geocaching. I will be placing more coins soon. Quote
+Fundamental Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 Placed yesterday one Wisconsin coin and tomorrow I will place UK, GOWT and North Carolina coins in caches.. Quote
