Team Zher0 Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Recently I proposed to my girlfriend in a way I think many geocachers will appreciate so I thought I'd share it http://www.themcgoughfamily.com/proposal.html Quote
+Touchstone Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Hey, where's the Diablo man. That one would be worthy of Today's Cacher. Great story, and best wishes. Thanks for sharing it. Quote
+JMBella Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Great job. Congrats and best of luck to you both. Quote
+CYBret Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 I think I speak for all of us hopeless romantics when I say..... Could you please post more pictures of the pinecone? Thanks! Bret P.S. Congrats! Someone with a faster connection will have to Markwell you, because you're not the first and I'm sure you won't be the last....someone should really collect these stories somewhere. Pye? Quote
+woof n lulu Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Hope you have many years of happiness and caching ahead of you. Thanks for sharing your special time. Quote
Team Zher0 Posted July 12, 2004 Author Posted July 12, 2004 Thanks for the all the well-wishes. The small images are click-able so you can get a bigger pic of the pinecone Quote
+JMBella Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Hey, where's the Diablo man. That one would be worthy of Today's Cacher. Great story, and best wishes. Thanks for sharing it. Ditto. And believe it or not, like Bret said, you are not the first. Still trying to find that old thread.... Quote
Team Zher0 Posted July 12, 2004 Author Posted July 12, 2004 Are you referring to this thread? http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php...4046&hl=wedding I found that when I originally thought of the idea and was searching on whether it had been done. Maybe we'll have to do a Wedding Event Cache, too Quote
+Criminal Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Don’t forget the prenuptial for custody of the GPSr. Quote
+Team DEMP Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Many of us use geocaching to get away from our wives. You use the hobby a bit differently. Anyway, best of luck! Quote
+Team Perks Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Don’t forget the prenuptial for custody of the GPSr. Nah, just make sure you include a second GPSr in your registry. Congrats! Quote
FLRob Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 Congrats to you both! I take it GPS co-ords go out in the invitations for the ceremony location? ! Quote
+Robespierre Posted July 12, 2004 Posted July 12, 2004 , Now which cache would be the perfect one for the wedding?? Quote

+Fenix6372 Posted July 14, 2004 Posted July 14, 2004 That is wicked cool man! I might have to steal that idea if I ever find a girl that likes geocaching By the way, looks like you got yourself a good one, likes geocaching, I'm assuming is electronically/technologically inclined or else the GPS would have scared her off, and beautiful to boot! Way to go man! Quote
annekat Posted July 14, 2004 Posted July 14, 2004 That is so sweet... Beautiful! If somebody proposed to me that way I would cry and cry and cry and cry and cry and hug them to bits. Heck. If somebody made me a "happy birthday" greetings that way I would cry and hug them to bits. "The pine cone says 'Happy Birthday,' and -- it's MY birthday! Oh, you are so SWEET!!" Quote
