Geocache Description:

This is a puzzle cache placed in honor of my 9th wedding anniversary to Mrs. MolsonBlue2001 (now Nellie899). My anniversary gift was a cache container, so I thought this was the best way to thank her for the gift.


The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but it is GZ for this puzzle as it is where the vows were said that lead us to 9 years of marriage (and without that, no cache container gift, and no puzzle cache). The final location is about 3-4 miles away via roads.

 

This is a really exciting anniversary gift for me and I could not wait to put it to use. However, where to put a nice gift so that muggles, the tides, construction crews, etc. did not walk away with my gift. This got me thinking about places to use this container and that made me think about past anniversary gifts.

- My gift to you is that this one is probably pretty easy to guess outright. If not e-mail me and I can help you out.

- A physical share of Tiffany stock for Jen.

- A Bluth's Frozen Banana Shirt (There's always money in the banana stand!) for Mike.

- Cast iron signs of "Live, Laugh, Love" for Jen.

- A very sleek clock made of wood for Mike.

- Absolutely nothing comes to mind.

- Jen got a watch with the face of it being a brand new penny.

* My gift to you is that this one is probably pretty easy to guess outright. If not e-mail me and I can help you out.

* A bronze replica of the fail safe key from The Hatch in "Lost" for Mike.

* Absolutely nothing comes to mind.

* A new wooden fire place mantel (that is in the house we left behind recently) for Jen.

* Jen got a rose (a special rose, but a rose by any other name…).

* Mike got a sign made of copper with the Olson name etched in it.

* Jen got a bronze plaque on a new bench in a park close to our house (Stage 1 plate for http://coord.info/GC5DAHE if you are looking for another cache in the area).

 

It was fun to think back about those gifts and some others along the way. It is even more fun that I can put the gift I received out there for others to enjoy and my most recent gift to Jen will be near the final stage soon enough as well.

The final is placed with permission from the owner, which happens to be the CO. Please try and make the find during daylight hours and say hello to any of the MolsonBlue2001 family that may be out and around during your search.
