+Cornerstone4 Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 As I was digging through my coins looking for things to sell, I came across my bag of coins from GeocoinFest 2007. I realized that one year ago from tomorrow, many of you were out here in Sunny Southern California celebrating the first GeocoinFest! While we had a lot of rain, and actually some snow here last week, this weekend we have blue skies, and temps in the 70's. I wish you were all here again! So, to celebrate the anniversary of our first GeocoinFest, I am putting up a Satin Gold version of the GeocoinFest "Coin Addict" coin from Oak Coins, and the 2-Piece coin from Hogwild Stuff in a nickel plated version! Both coins go to the first person that can name my favorite author, and the name of one of his books that I have read! Don't worry, I'll give some clues later if nobody guesses correctly. I'll go by the order of the posts in this thread. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment

+Cornerstone4 Posted February 17, 2008 Author Share Posted February 17, 2008 All good guesses, and I've read and enjoyed all but one...I've never read, or heard of Scott Hahn...but I'll check into him. Acutally, I watched but never read "It"...King is just too creepy for me to let him into my head! Quote Link to comment
