We (The Nedbirds) recently had dinner with Gilliam and Patrick Staffordshire. Gilliam was excited to hear about Patrick’s many good experiences meeting geocachers. After a few pints of Guiness, they told us where to meet a friend of theirs named Peter Flaumig Schwanz.
Peter is from the Old World, but has been working in the Tucson area for the past several years as a lehrling Osterhase. He is dedicated to perfecting his skills of cultivating and decorating eggs, or as he calls them, “Urlaub Eier.” Peter has also been studying to be a chocolatier in hopes of one day being promoted to Meister Osterhase.
We met with Peter and had a delightful conversation in which he agreed to meet and greet any geocachers who might be willing to visit. We are so happy that the usually reclusive and secretive folks of the Old World are opening their doors to the geocaching community. Please help us in keeping their hideouts tidy and their exposure to a minimum (No Muggles Allowed!).
Congratulations to "grandmabetsy" for FTF!!!
