COINTEST: Todies Wild Ride!

[Maine Family]

We get some flooding on the Marsh in spring about 500 ft from the house. It floods the road for a day we sit and watch dummies drive through it and that's with the warning signs up.

Last year we hopped in the bass boat and rowed across the marsh and down to our stream just for kicks

Now that sounds like fun. Is that where your Oh deer cache is?

To keep it on topic the list has been updated and if I missed anyone let me know.

Yup,

If you sat there at the end of the driveway and looked to the left about 500 ft down theres a dip in the road,

That's where it floods. Our marsh is on the left side of the road and goes back a couple thousand feet to the stream. Makes the time pass, LOL!!!

There are very few State Capitols I could have actually stopped in along that list of states. Maybe we should concentrate on that until we get it right. I guess if I say that I ended in Bowling Green, you might be able to make some educated guesses on the milage. After that It will all fall into place.

Yes. I went from Nebraska into Iowa, then south into Missouri and took a detour into Kansas for fuel and then back on my way.

3. Lincoln, NELook for a Bonus Game soon...Care to guess the name of the place I stopped in Lincoln for a Sandwich and an Americano. I think I have a way we can play a lot of mini games without me having to give away another coin every other day.

Just one off the wall guess...if you didn't eat here you probably know where it is if you go that way often.

SHOEMAKER'S SHELL TRUCK STOP

I just enjoy playing the games, even without a coin for a prize! Its just fun!

SHOEMAKER'S SHELL TRUCK STOP

I'm going to have to refine my idea for the Bonus Questions, and run the idea by Rod before I start it. The basics are that instead of a correct answer getting you a coin, it will get you a place in a drawing for a coin. It would be similar to what we did in my Shutterspot games in the summer. After about 10-20 rounds, I would draw a winner for the coin. This might be too labor intensive though. still thinking it through. It wasn't a truck stop that I went to...It was an espresso that I had!!

Me too, but to stay inside the rules, we have to keep it Coin related. Otherwise...they are playing games in Off Topic.

[+Team CeDo]

i kinda ruled out the smaller expresso type places only due to your parking limitations(but then again I know how you guys are with parking those things so darn good!!) That bonous sounds like a really good idea because nobody can forever give away coins without running out eventually

I had to get Chris to ship me almost all the remaining Coins since I adopted out all the ones I intended to send as prizes. I end up having so much fun in these games that I adopted out around 30 of them when I only wanted to do 15!! I have about 150 left, with 20 or so being already awarded as prizes, andd a commitment to activate 100 for my own account. I gotta quit giving them away sometime...

Let's try to remember to put a Safety statement in each answer...bringing it to those who come to see the thread. Remember that each person who finds one of these 400+ coins might come here to see what it's all about. One of the first things they see should be one of these reminders...Thanks!!

Most of the major Truckstops have WiFi. They either have it for free, or you can sign up for it. I have an account at Flying J, with over 300 hotspots in the US and Canada. ($150/year). I also sponge off other places like Hotel/Motels, or many other places offer it for free. Right now I'm at a Starbucks. I bought a "Gold Card" wich will get me a discount on products for a year, and also allows 2 hrs per day of free internet(which is usually very expensive here). This is not a commercial, just an explanation.

I've already weeded through my traders and gave every one of them away, then I went into the keepers. To get KAboom's coin, we took the event coin I had in my collection! The Geopigs have said they would weed their traders down a bit, but I fear we'll be running out on this end soon as well! I think there's about 15-20 here left to award, then I just don't know!!

 

I've got a little money coming from taxes, but not enough to have even a micro made...but it would be nice. Will have to do some thinking!
