+kewfriend Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) According to those that know, we have recently just had blue Monday. So I thought I'd start a bookmark series called Happy Caches. Please suggest caches! I'll add every cache listed here (and include the geoname of who suggested it.) Then we'll all have a set of caches to make us SMILE. Edited January 20, 2009 by kewfriend Quote Link to comment
+Von-Horst Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 We'd like to nominate GC19FJB - Slimy's Home - it certainly made us smile! Quote Link to comment
+Malpas Wanderer Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Made the perfect end to one of my caching days Amazon Valley Jaspar by allthebridges (GC14CJ5). Couldn't help but smile. Quote Link to comment
+Guanajuato Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Well, there's 158 caches by the Smileys. Do those count! Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 We'd like to nominate GC19FJB - Slimy's Home - it certainly made us smile! Thank you! A cache that we particularly enjoyed because it made us smile at the end is "Digging up the past (Dorset)". A lovely cache for many reasons, not least the final container. MrsB Quote Link to comment

+Simply Paul Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 One of my faves from last year: Pulpit Rock by Street Pilot, where Bambography took this photo of me: Certainly put a big dumb grin on my face. Thus: Quote Link to comment
+overanout Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Can I add my cache - http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...12-3542602d0b49 It is aimed specifically for children, but we are all kids at heart eh? Intelligent men have had loads of fun with this one and it certainly brings a smile to cachers' faces. Read the logs and see the pictures.

+careygang Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) Just to put a different spin on the Blue Monday... USAF have Blue Monday... Sept 5th 2008 - WASHINGTON (AFPN) -- Beginning Sept. 8, Airmen now will be required to wear a combination of the blues uniform on Mondays. At a recent four-star conference, Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Norton A. Schwartz discussed the issue with other senior leaders. "We all agreed that part of our image, culture and professionalism is instilled in our blues," General Schwartz said. Prior to Sept. 11, 2001, blues were the primary duty uniform for most Airmen. OK, so it's nothing to do with being depressed on Jan 19th, but it brings a smile to my face that the USAF have taken 7 years to realise that they need to take pride in themselves and this about the same time as UK MoD decreed that our Armed Forces should increase the public profile by wearing uniform in public after decades of a low profile policy. Back on topic - if anyone goes to Las Vegas for a holiday, try this one Home with a view, I can't say why, as that would be a spoiler, but it brings a smile to faces when you discover it.

+adsandco Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) We were going to suggest Mr Tumnus but after just checking the cache it's been archived in the last week or so through some local problems. This was a brilliant experience, obviously took a lot of work and had us laughing all the way home. Its real shame its gone Edited January 20, 2009 by adsandco Quote Link to comment

+The Blorenges Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 We did another one yesterday... "Green fingers" by *mouse* gave us a chuckle. MrsB Quote Link to comment
+kewfriend Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 keep the list growing - anything which brings some mirth to girth and makes it a good day out, even when it was peeing down like today Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 I don't know if this is a "Happy cache" or not - it hasn't been found yet - but the listing for Rock Solid? GC1Q5YB certainly made me smile. <--- MrsB's smile Quote Link to comment
+currykev Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 This one made me smile before during and now after. GC1M3KK Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 In the quest to spread more smiles in the forum, I thought I'd bump this topic with a cache that's just been published near Northampton by The Allotment Gardener. As it's a PMO cache not everyone will be able to see the full details so here's a bit of the cache description: "This cache is placed near where I popped the question to my partner, Lynn on Friday 19th February 2010. Thankfully she said yes I did the traditional “Down on one knee” in the company of good friends in The Bell public house in the village." "Down on one knee" cache, GC23JJJ Happy News, indeed! Congratulations to The Allotment Gardener and Lynn MrsB Quote Link to comment
+Mini-Geek Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Has anyone done the Kingcote Walk series? It's a great 4 mile walk around some beautiful country side.

+Lord_Blackadder Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Just stumbled across this thread. Can I add my own cache to the list? According to the logs, it has raised one or two smiles. http://coord.info/GC2YCEV Quote Link to comment
