I don't think I'm going to take up a lot of time with multiple guesses. I'm just going to make one stab at it and hope for the best :laughing:

 

Cache: GC17JN7 (A Big OLD house 1)

Country: Bahrain

Date: April 12, 2008

 

If I'm right (or at least in the right area) she might bump into some geocaching buddies of mine from the HMCS Charlottetown.

Hey Zath and Mrs Zath.

 

I think that this poem is appropriate for today. :)

 

 

STRONG TO SAVE

 

Eternal father, strong to save.

Who arms hath bound the restless wave,

Who biddest the mighty ocean deep.

It's own appointed limits keep;

Oh, hear us when we cry to thee,

For those in peril on sea!

 

O christ! Whose voice the water heard

And husked their raging at thy word,

Who walked on the foaming deep,

And calm amidst it's rage didst sleep:

Oh, hear us when we cry to thee,

For those in peril on sea!

 

Most holy spirit! Who didst brood

Upon the chaos dark and rude,

And bid its angry, tumult, cease,

And give, for wild confusion, peace;

Oh, hear us when we cry to thee,

For those in peril on sea!

 

O trinity of love and power!

Our family shield in danger's hour;

From rock and tempest, fire and foe,

Protect us wheresoever we go;

Oh, hear us when we cry to thee,

For those in peril on sea!

 

Poem written by William Whiting 1860

Has mrs Zath arrived here????? [see picture above]

 

Mandy, i am glad that you arrived safe. :D

Enjoy your freetime and good luck finding caches.

I think that gumby protects the cache to good maybe if you say some kinds words to him , he shows you the cache. :)

 

It's difficult to find a cache in a different country, each country has his own way to hide, but if you found the first , the rest will follow fast :lol:

Dear Lord

 

So far today, God i have lived my live as you would intend.

I haven't lost my temper.

I haven't screamed at anyone.

So far i have not even grabbed the chief's mess cook by the throut, like yesterday.

I have said nothing insulting or humiliating to any of the junior-officers.

I haven't bitched about the coffee, the ship's schedule, the watch bill or saturday's personnel inspection.

I have told no lies.

I have not cheated at poker.

I have put no ship's tools in my personal toolbox.

In short God, i believe that so far today i have committed no grievous sins.

Thank you, God, for helping me to stay righteous so far.

But Lord, it's almost 0600 and in a little while i'm going to roll out of my bunk.

After that i think i will need a lot more help.

 

Amen.

Well, I haven't posted to this cointest as I had a very cool Easter mission from zazth and Mrs. Zazth before her ship set sail (oh it's probably power - cast off). Regardless, she is daily in my thoughts and prayers for a safe journey.

 

When I went to Canada and found my first cache it was different than here at home. It was fun but held a different feeling.

 

I can not imagine (but would love the opportunity to try - probably not from a military ship, at my age, however) trying to find a cache in a country across the sea. May the cache Gods shine down on Mandy and a find to be had soon.

 

May the Creator and higher powers watch over Mandy's ship, her shipmates and all those who are serving our Country!

By the time a navy guy pulled into a little town, every hotel room was taken.

"You 've got to have a room somewhere, "he pleaded".

"Or just a bed,, i don't care where".

"Well, i do have a double room with one occupant, a marine guy admitted"the manager.

"And he might be glad to split the cost".

"But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past".

"I'm not sure it'd be worth to you".

"No problem", the tired navy guy assured him;

"I'll take it".

The next morning the navy guy came down to breakfast bright-eye and bushy-tailed.

"How'd you sleep" asked the manager.

"Never better"the manager was impressed.

"No problem with the other guy snorring, then??????

"Nope, i shut him up in a no-time "said the navy guy.

"How'd you manage that"asked the manager.

"He was already in bed, snoring away when i came in the room", the navyguy explained.

"I went over gave him a kiss on the cheek, said goodnight beautiful and he sat up all night watching me".

Well, I hope the best! It must be great to find a cache in a foreign country! One day, I hope I will find one in an other country too!! :unsure:

but i thought it would be easy to hop out of Greece and catch one or two. Who knows, we might just make it to cache in Rhodes one of these years. :D

 

Well that's might hope,

Mike
