Well, appearently something went wrong when Naomi was distributing the addresses, so I ended up with two missions getting sent so me...

 

This has happened to me too ... Naomis computer sure has a mind of its own! <big grin>

 

Yesterday I received a surprise second mission ... many thanks Southpawaz ... I am in bed with a heavy cold / chest infection just now but as soon as I can I'll photograph the beautiful coin you sent to me.

 

I have now succeeded (it wasn't easy) in nagging Naomi to give me details of someone to send another coin to, I now have those details and will, as soon as I can, send a coin onwards. It may take a day or two though, I've been in bed since Monday, so please hold tight! :rolleyes:

 

OK still playing catch up, here's the promised photo of the beautiful suncacther coin from Southpawaz, thanks again!

Also, just to confirm the second coin was sent on Monday 17th to someone in Minnesota. :unsure:

 

Many thanks Naomi for organising such a fun mission. :laughing:

I received my mission!! A brilliant sunshiney card and a 'Nurses Have Heart' coin! From one nurse to another....THANKYOU so much NurseNana! I love it, plus the extra coin you threw in just to make my day even better. :laughing:

 

My camera is dead at the moment, so there are no photos :rolleyes:

 

Thankyouthankyouthankyou!!!!!! :unsure:

Not all of mine came in yet Naomi got my card... but my coin hasn't arrived yet :unsure:

 

First off, no, I didn't have you :blink: But If you got your card, could the envelope have been slit opened? Usually, in my experiences, the coin (s) are usually attached to the card.

Posted

I know it's not nice to say that I'm glad that I'm not the only one who has not gotten there mission yet. But at least I'm not the only one. :unsure: Next time I won't send mine out so quickly. :blink: Just kidding. :blink:

no hun the coin was being sent seperatly my sunshine lady awseomely traded for a coin on my seeking list and she asked the trader to ship to me :blink:

No sunshine mission arrival here (but plenty of summer sun)

 

I know the one I sent has not arrived also - please note that it was posted AIRMAIL here, on the FIRST postal day after the name & address arrived. Delivery times in the US seem a bit slow. Patience is great, because every day I can anticipate, and if it has not arrived then I get to anticipate yet again the next day....

very very very very late at posting but I received my mission and it came on a day when I relly needed some internal sunshine and the jellie bellie I received was just the ticket,

Thanks Again

Just double checked...looks like mine hasn't come in yet.

 

But I'm not 100% sure. I've had a lot of trades and another mission or two and looks like I may have lost track.

 

I did see that my mission arrived in the Netherlands safe and sound. That's the important thing.

"Singing in the sunshine, laughing in the rain

Hitting on the moonshine, rocking in the grain

Ain't no time to pack my bag, my foots outside the

door Got a date, I can't be late, for the high

hopes hailla ball.

 

Singing to an ocean, I can hear the ocean's roar

Play for free, play for me and play a whole lot

more, more! Singing about good things and the sun

that lights the day I used to sing on the

mountains, has the ocean lost it's way.

 

Sitting round singing songs 'til the night turns

into day Used to sing on the mountains but the

mountains washed away Now I'm singing all my songs

to the girl who won my heart She is only three

years old and it's a real fine way to start."

The sun is shining here in Michigan after 7" of snow on Saturday. There aren't any clouds in the sky soooo.....

 

 

"I think I'll go for a walk outside now,

The summer sun's calling my name, I hear it now.

I just can't stay inside all day,

I've got to get out, gimme some of those rays.

 

Everybody's smiling (sunshine day),

Everybody's laughing (sunshine day),

Everybody seems so happy today in the sunshine day.

 

Oooh. Can't you dig the sunshine?

Feel the sun and the rays.

Can't you hear it calling your name?"

 

I hope that everyone's sunshine arrives soon!

"Love will remain a mystery

But give me your hand and you will see

Your heart is keeping time with me

 

What a feeling in my soul

Love burns brighter than sunshine

It's brighter than sunshine

Let the rain fall, I don't care

I'm yours and suddenly you're mine

Suddenly you're mine "

Posted

OH, YES . . . "Tetheys C" has made my ray shine. with what He sent me :) Also, By coincidence, the weather has done a 180 from yesterday. It has been beautiful all day today - of course, one still needs to wear a jacket :)

Anyways, wrapped in a sheet of paper that had all the geocoin icons, was a Very B E A U T I F U L coin indeed. One that I've been hoping for since I started this wonderfully contagious , addictive and expensive "hobby". Oh, yes, this shiny, awesome coin was worth the wait :DB) .

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, you want me to tell you What it was, don't you :huh: . . .

 

 

Ready ? ! ?

 

 

 

"Isle of Man" Oh, man, words can't totally describe just how magnificently this lovely is - You'll just have to trust me :D:D:D:D

 

thank you, so very much, Andrew :D

 

Hugs,

Faityhoney

No mission yet but I know it's on its way so no worries here. :huh: We had no mail Friday or today because of the Easter holiday so hopefully it will be in my mailbox tomorrow. I am sure it will arrive at just the 'right' time. It's coming from pretty far.

...isn't that just the great thing with these missions, they often turn up at just the moment to brighten an otherwise rubbish, disappointing, exhausting, really naff, boring * day! :anibad:

Thank you Thank you so much Gardengorilla I just love my new Motogrrl Memorial :anibad:;)

B) B)

 

Don't you just love the story of this coin. It's sad but good B)

 

Sad indeed B) This is my most prize coin... I can't wait for some day in hopes to have the MOTOGRRL

Black Nickel in my collection also both beautiful coins...being a biker myself I am so aware of the open road....

 

THE BIKER*

 

I saw you, hug your purse closer to you in the grocery store line.

But, you didn't see me, put an extra $10.00 in the collection plate last Sunday.

 

I saw you, pull your child closer when we passed each other on the sidewalk.

But, you didn't see me, playing Santa at the local mall.

 

I saw you, change your mind about going into the restaurant.

But, you didn't see me, attending a meeting to raise more money for the hurricane relief.

 

I saw you, roll up your window and shake your head when I rode by.

But, you didn't see me, riding behind you when you flicked your cigarette butt out the car window.

 

I saw you, frown at me when I smiled at your children.

But, you didn't see me, when I took time off from work to run toys to the homeless.

 

I saw you, stare at my long hair.

But, you didn't see me, and my friends cut ten inches off for Locks of Love.

 

I saw you, roll your eyes at our leather jackets and gloves.

But, you didn't see me, and my brothers donate our old ones to those that had none.

 

I saw you, look in fright at my tattoos.

But, you didn't see me, cry as my children were born and have their name written over and in my heart.

 

I saw you, change lanes while rushing off to go somewhere.

But, you didn't see me, going home to be with my family.

 

I saw you, complain about how loud and noisy our bikes can be.

But, you didn't see me, when you were changing the CD and drifted into my lane.

 

I saw you, yelling at your kids in the car.

But, you didn't see me, pat my child's hands, knowing he was safe behind me.

 

I saw you, reading the newspaper or map as you drove down the road.

But, you didn't see me, squeeze my wife's leg when she told me to take the next turn.

 

I saw you, race down the road in the rain.

But, you didn't see me, get soaked to the skin so my son could have the car to go on his date.

 

I saw you, run the yellow light just to save a few minutes of time.

But, you didn't see me, trying to turn right.

 

I saw you, cut me off because you needed to be in the lane I was in.

But, you didn't see me, leave the road.

 

I saw you, waiting impatiently for my friends to pass.

 

But, you didn't see me. I wasn't there.

 

I saw you, go home to your family.

 

But, you didn't see me.

 

Because, I died that day you cut me off.

 

I was just a biker. A person with friends and a family.

 

But, you didn't see me.

Trena! I'm so glad you got your sunshine...I hope all you guys from the east are getting a break from all that snow. Bikes have been out here for at least two weeks now, some go all winter!

Ride Safe!

"Walking In The Sunshine, singing a little sunshine song,

Put a smile on your face as if there's nothing wrong.

 

Think about a good time had a long time ago,

Think about forgetting about your worries and your woes,

 

Walking In The Sunshine, singing a little sunshine song.

La la la la la dee oh, Whether the weather be rain or snow,

 

Pretending can make it real,

A snowy pasture, a green and grassy field."

Joranda, a little sunbeam came into my mailbox today and let me know that yours is on the way and actually has been for a while, it's coming from across the BIG pond. It's just one of those patience things!

 

Naomi ;)

you're welcome. yay, im so glad it got there! i was getting nervous that customs decided to keep it!!!

The courier post man has a parcel for me.... but twice he has called when no one has been at home.

It could be some wonderful northern sunshine or some Carousel horses....... time will only time.

 

Actually Carousel horses will bring more sunshine in here. A dismal autumn / fall day.

FAR better than sunshine. TODAY

After weeks of drought, paddocks turning from brown to non existence, lakes becoming smelly mud holes, rivers lower than ever before....

 

TODAY it rained! It's been a while since we last saw that sight!

No enough to break the drought. But still rain!

 

Through the letterbox appropriately, two "cahing thru the snow" geocoins. Perfect.
