I had a goal for 2014 of hiding caches on days when the month and date match. I hid one cache on 1/1, two caches on 2/2, three caches on 3/3, and so on. It was hard work but I was able to keep it up all year. This is one of my twelve December hides. Thanks to all the cachers who have found my caches and sent messages of support and praise.
