Current Goal



***August 8, 2007 Mission UPDATE***
We'd like to get this coin back to us so we can make a few changes then send it back out to gather more humor. Please try to move this coin towards Chelmsford, MA (N42 35.700 W071 21.396). Thank you, and happy caching!

*Original Mission*
In memory of my dad who had a wonderful sense of humor, so much so that his nickname was Jolly Wally. This coin's mission is simply to move from cache to cache gathering humorous stories, jokes, etc. Please post a funny story, anecdote, or joke when you log your find.

About This Item

Wally's Humor Geocoin

My dad (Wally) died in 2001 of cancer. His incredible sense of humor has been inherited by all of his children (and working its way into the next generation as well). Wally served in the Navy on the USS Shannon during the early 1950's so any Navy related anecdotes and/or pictures would be extra special!

11:00 hrs- Found..In the SUDOKU Cache.

It was a quiet day at work and I took an extended lunch... SHHhhhhhhush !(the boss doesn't know). I started the day at 196 and it was bugging me.. I had solved the Sudoku puzzles some time ago but never got around to the location. Today I came. I was kinda dressed up, (work you know) but the path looked pretty tame and straight, so in I went for it. Ultimately however I had to turn into the bush. (In for a penny, in for a pound)... I started looking for the cache. No luck!! I thought I had learned this lesson about a 194 caches ago, but I hadn't. READ THE ENTIRE INSTRUCTION! I wasn't looking for a cache, I was looking for a ##$&*!L Re-direct.. With this in mind I started looking in different places and shortly found the Re-Direct. In the mean time I was picking up bug bits, sweat and doing no end of harm to the dress shoes, pants and shirt! I moved to the re-direct and again went bush. Finally found the cache!! Coordinates were bang on. Logged in...

Took Walley's Humour GeoCoin which is a USA Geocoin making it's way around the continent.. They wanted a humourous story or anecdote. I thought I could oblige. I reported back to the office covered in scrapes, mud, bug bites and leaves nestled in my hair. (I think their on to me!)

It was a great cache. I love Sodoku's but a couple of these were from the hard category?

TFTC

The GeoCoin is neat, and I honour the memory and the purpose of the Coin.. I cache with a group called the GeoMob who cache together every Saturday morning after a hearty breakfast. We have lots of fun doing it. Will move it on to an appropriate destination soon. Thanks for the Coin...

Jaw1 here...Not all jokes turn out to be funny... but they still are in retro-spect... to broaden the imagination a little... for example Well's War of the Worlds radio broad cast that caused massive panic in its day. You can google the whole text quite easily.
