Here's the challenge:
Find and log a cache starting with each letter or digit of your registered geocaching name. If you have any type of punctuation in your geocaching name, you need to at least find a cache with that symbol in the cache name, but that one does not have to start with the symbol itself. List them all in the log on this cache page with their GC number and the date of your find. Also, if you have a letter or digit used multiple times in your caching name, you will need to find a unique geocache for each instance. This cache cannot be used as one of the finds for your name, and you cannot use a cache that you own.
Also, for our entertainment pleasure, in your log give a short description that tells the story of why you chose that name.
Here's mine:

Here's what the latest Geocaching Blog has to say...
What's in Your Username?
The username is the Geocacher's calling card, signature, or tag.
It's as primeval a mark of territory as a bear scratching trees in the woods. It's "I was here!" yelled at the top of the lungs on a steep mountainside at twilight next to a small Tupperware container.
Like the superheros who grace the pages of dime store comic books, every username has an Origin Story. Some usernames are born great, some usernames achieve greatness, and some usernames have greatness thrust upon them.
Some usernames are unexpected.
Some usernames evoke personal memories.
Some usernames just work.
The joy of seeing your name in the FTF spot: priceless
It's a requirement of Geocaching.com that every username be unique. But we think it's more the story behind the alias rather than its characters that creates distinction.
Now we ask you—what's the story behind your username?
