+Geo-Gophers Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 As much as I like the coins, because they fill some holes in a growing collection. I like the handmade pieces even more. ESPECIALLY the Vampire Turtle. Couldn't agree more, it's a lovely feeling to get handmade bits and bobs. Love your turtle........but wouldn't like to meet him in person LOL......scary looking beast that he is!! Beautifully made by the look of him too. Ali Quote

During GCF my Spooky Halloween Mission partner approached me and gave me a mysteriously spooky looking bag with goodies!!! I am still holding out on opening the bag. It is a bit "traveled" as I had it in my flight bag up to Woods Hole and back down to Oxford after the GCF, but nevertheless it made it safely home with me. I will post pictures once I open it on Halloween!!! Thanks in advance for my goodie bag. to be continued...... Quote
