Current Goal

Action Soldier's mission is to travel to all 50 State Capitals and have his photo taken in front of each one. But, be quick as he is in a race against his fellow forces, Action Sailor, Action Pilot & Action Marine. The first Action Joe to make all 50 Capitals and return home to Clarksville, Tennessee will be the winner!

Well after a move across the country and 7 years of not geocaching, I got my son into it and see that I have lost this. Many apologies. :(
I'll be creating a couple new trackables to link to this one, starting with Air Force Honor: http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=2239192

Was handed Action Soldier from racer2812 at MOGA since she knows I work in the IL State Capitol. This Action Soldier will be getting some pics from inside the Capitol and outside too. I thought he might like to vote on a veteran's bill on the Senate floor and maybe go to Senate Education and Higher Education Committees.

  • Illinois State Capitol from the North The front entrance really faces the East ...but hey, this is where the mom of our team parks!
  • Action Soldier TB pushing the Speak Button Action Soldier is bravely pushing the Speak button on the IL Senate Floor. (you can see the voting buttons above it -- green for yes / red for no / yellow for present)
  • Action Soldier speaking on behalf of geocachers Here see Action Soldier defending geocachers to the IL Senate -- pushing to change some nature preserve and IDNR's policies towards hiding caches.
  • Action Soldier checking out the Senate Calendar It was a full day at the IL Senate with the Senate Bill 3rd Reading deadline at the end of the week.
  • Action Soldier in the Visitors Gallery Action Soldier is bravely surveying the IL Senate from the Visitor's Gallery on the Republican side
