:anibad: Here in New Zealand today - yes both in one day - I came across two coins in this mission.

One travelling to bluecherry - that should get to you fast. It's on a tour soon.

And one going to Tasmania, new owner CinemaBoxers.

 

How cool is that????

 

Thanks everyone - I never thought that I would see any of your travelling coins.

What a thrill it was to see those.

 

In fact I now have TB26T2E in my caching kit.

 

Cool !!!!!!!! :)

Our outgoing coin has reached it's destination. Hopefully the Bloranges are watching and will get it picked up before someone else.

 

From Madison Heights, Michigan (Near Detroit) USA to Wales UK in only 3 steps. And one of those was to start the mileage clock.

 

I think this might be the first success of this mission.

 

Whoot! :yikes:

Both my incoming coins are at a stand still, in fact the one has not moved at all, and the coin I got started for grodan & fiabus has been moving a little.

Hope they are all safe and sound

 

Pretty much the same here. My outgoing coin has traveled from Oregon to North Carolina en route Ohio. My incoming coin is right where it was first dropped in Wisconsin in the Lost Souls cache. I hope that's not prophetic.

I do not remember if I posted it before, but my incoming coin is now officially reported stolen :D

Well, I hope some day it will resurface somewhere...

Thx for the fun mission...

 

:) I'm really sorry to hear that! :D

 

Mine has been in limbo in the cache where it was originally dropped - assuming it's still there. I just posted a note for it. *sigh*

Many thanks to JerEvie for helping it (greatly) get to it's destination!

 

Yes, I picked it up the following day! Sorry I didn't reply sooner. Been super busy with a new house and moving. Thanks Burgess Four for a great coin, Butterfly Lady for a great mission, and JerEvie for taking such great care of my coin and bringing it safely across the country! It was a lot of fun to watch it travel around.

It had a more than perfect notice attached and reached me safely! Thanks so much to BrierPatch!

2. in Bavaria, 184km from home, traveled 8029.3km,

Link to comment

Mine was doing great, but the last person to pick it up has had it since 8/7/2008, hopefully he or she will get it back on the move soon lol :D

 

It HAS popped up........it's made it all the way over to GCK38X in Sweden!!!!!!!!!!! 1975_dancing_banana.gif

 

That was a brilliant surprise this morning, because I honestly thought that it must have gotten lost somewhere enroute.........well it's a lot nearer to Scotland now so I'm keeping everything crossed here!! :D

 

Just in case it makes it over here I've had to update the details of the cache that it's mission is to head to........because that one of ours got muggled recently and we are just in the process of getting it's replacement sorted out. So the it's new cache destination is our cache "Logie Cache & Dash" GC1C9RK.

I had some time on my hands so I thought I would check on our participants...they aren't doing so good :yikes:

 

Participant 1- TB1W6G3 is coming to us from Tasmania, Australia it has traveled 104.5 miles so far, it is still in Tasmania....I'll give it about 1 1/2 years to make it to us at that rate! :wacko:

 

Participant 2- TB2DYHD is coming to us from the Netherlands, it has traveled 89.2 miles. It is currently still in the Netherlands.

 

Maybe they have both seen what Northern Michigan winters are like and are waiting to get closer for our summer. :blink:

I checked with and heard back from arnmaker. My coin is safe and sound, and chillin' out in WI awaiting better weather. Perhaps the Easter Bunny will bring it :grin:

As I got notice today, that one of my gift mission coins is gone MIA, I checked on the others as well.

Well I didn't want to think about this mission for ages as the one that I sent out went missing from an event straight after it got picked up! I placed it near state highway 1 in a traditional so as it would be picked up quickly. It wasn't, after a month of not moving I was about to move it when it was picked up and taken about 800kms north to an event. In to which it dissapeared with out a trave....

 

That is untill about 10 months later and it was found in the car of the person who took it to the event!!! Oh I am so glad that the first coin I ever traded is on the move again!!! Hopefully it will have faster travels from now on.

 

As to the coin that is on the way to me, well it was coming from Sweden and has travelled so far to Rhode Island east coast USA. So I am still hopefull that it will arrive at some stage.

 

Thanks for orgainising this mission.

The first and only cacher to retrieve my coin (TB26J90) grabbed it nearly 9 months ago and has yet to move it. The last 5 emails I've sent him (5/9/09, 5/27/09, 06/25/09, 07/13/09 and 07/22/09) have gone unanswered. He caches infrequently, but was out on 07/01/09 and dropped some trackables he's been holding on to for many moons - but not mine. I've tried to be patient with him, but I'm at my rope's end. My last email asked simply, "IS THERE ANY REASON I SHOULD NOT REGARD THIS COIN AS STOLEN?!". No answer. I'm about to change the name of the coin to STOLEN BY ARNMAKER :blink:

Link to comment

That were great news in my mailbox when the message from my watchlist arrived that the coin arrived at its destination cache and a few days later that it was picked up! :ph34r:

 

My coin is still alive and due to the last log on its way to Germany... I hope it will arrive one day!

 

(Yes, I am still alive, but no work and no money for coins... :mad: )
