WOW! What a great experience this coin had getting to Seattle HQ... and now, I plan to get it to Switzerland in May! A very special thanks to the Martin 5, who helped me get the first goal of this coin met! Geocachers truly are a great group of folks, and I appreciate their willingness to assist!

For now, this coin will travel around with me a bit here in the states before my trip in May... Where to next??? Hmmmm......

GCHQ visit with J & T of Martin 5 and our SAR K9 trainee, Sage!! 😛 We have been in possession of several geocoins for the past year with a specific mission to visit GCHQ!! Unfortunately, with things closed up for part of the year with Lackey's working from home, that obviously could not happen during one of several trips to Seattle!! This time around we were able to connect ahead of time with former WSGA Vice-President, former APE Event Director and current Lackey, jtcoffee, to visit with her out in the public lobby and allow her to escort the geocoins inside for the milestone visit to the Geocaching HQ cache!! It was great to catch up with jtcoffee and Sage made a new friend!! Plus, after a year of trying, we finally helped these geocoins complete their mission, so they can now move on to other adventures besides following us around!! Thank you, jtcoffee!! We miss having you on the WSGA board, but at least your reason for leaving was for good reason... becoming a Lackey!!
