+PengoFamily Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Monday is Thanksgiving Day for us Canucks. :D So I thought it might be nice to have a cointest to celebrate it. You are playing for a Pengo-licious GeoJellie V2. Rules are very simple. Just post what you are thankful for. 1 post per geocaching family/name please. On Monday, October 8th at 6pm EST we will use a random number generator to pick a winning post. Thanks! Quote Link to comment

+mousekakat Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 There is so much to be thankful for, but right now, especially, I'm thankful for my two girls, Hanna and Caitlyn, and my husband, Micke. Some of you know, we recently went through a miscarriage about 2 weeks ago, and it hit us hard and close to the heart. It also made us realize just how hard it wouuld be to lose any of us in our little family, especially since we are a tight little family due to some serious disfunctionality in our family otherwise. Losing the girls, or each other would be devastating... that is the one silver lining from the miscarriage, it showed us just how devastating it would be and makes us so very grateful for each other.

+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I'm thankful for GeoDog and the help he gives so freely as an assistance dog. In just a few short years he turned me from someone who didn;t have the confidence to go to the local village for a loaf of bread into someone who could travel UK to California and back with just his help. Having the courage to place my trust in this wonderful Golden Retriever has paid off a thousand-fold. Quote Link to comment

This is a great cointest. Just reading the posts makes me weepy, but I think it's great to really stop and think about what is important in this world. Have a great Thanksgiving up in Canada this Monday! Someone said you can eat lots of pie as long as you don't eat the crust! Quote Link to comment
+tadpole379 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I am thankful for geocaching. It has given me so much-brought me to many wonderful and amazing places, allowed me to meet many awesome people (in person, and online), introduced me to the coin addiction, and filled up many many days that I would otherwise be sitting home bored with nothing to do.

+slippery_1 Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 (edited) Hows does one go about being thankful and then naming all the reasons for being thankful? But with thought I find myself first of all being thankful to my creater for giving me this day (one day at a time), Then thankful my family allows me to share in thier experiences and they share in mine, for being allowed to wake up every morning, and just breath oxygen and then read the paper. Turning to the Obituaries and not readin or seeing my name and picture in them (knowing this makes it a lot easier). Having friends who have no agendas and demand nothing in return. Most of all the technology and opportunity to speak out for those who may not be as fortunate as I am. Edited October 7, 2007 by slippery_1 Quote Link to comment
+Landsharkz Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 First, I am thankful for the technology nowadays that allows us to stay in touch with loved ones far away. I'm thinking especially of our son Al Caldazar who's posted to Montreal and isn't home to request two pumpkin pies this weekend - one for him and one for the rest of us! I am thankful for all the troops who put their lives on the line so that we can live in peace and in the lifestyle that other's only dream about. I am thankful for my health and that of my family and for Canada's healthcare system - we moan sometimes, but many have it much worse. I am thankful for our friends who keep us sane!

+Tank Hounds Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I'm thankful that my husband's retirement from the Army was approved! We'll be able to start living together again next year! Quote Link to comment
