About This Item

Joe Peterson, Co-founder, Escapees RV Club
04/23/1927 – 12/22/2010
 
        Joe always carried a pocketful of gold coins with him to give to people, not only for tips, but “just because” he felt they deserved it. Such was his giving nature.
        At his memorial service , family members passed out gold coins to everyone in the room. One more treasured keepsake of Joe we will carry with us.
        Yes, Joe was a giver and one lesson we can remember from him is his trust in mankind. Because of this trust he carried with him, Joe said, “I am not going to let anyone else’s bad deeds change my good nature.”

    Found this travel bug in a cache in Portland, Oregon and am now seeing that it was marked as missing!?? Unfortunately, the coin is missing... I will take it on a small adventure and then move it on.
