YK's FL Landmarks Geocoin

w00t-w🙂🙂t-woot!!! Who WOULDN'T want to choose this AWEsome cache for one of their milestones❔!❔!❔ Here's my story, and I'm 😎 sticking to it:

I 😎 had tried to schedule this for one of my earlier milestones, but was unable to make it happen then. Patiently bided my time until Burgi Dad and I 😎 😎 could run away from home for this Thanksgiving week. Met Eagle-eyed spotter daughter, CSI Crue 😁 (that's Cache Scene Investigator Crue to you!) and her boyfriend, Krunch Rescue 👍, at The Etch-O-Sketch Night Cache. I 😎 needed all my peeps 😎 😁 👍 (and their peepers!) to help me find my 2400th Milestone!

Speaking of peeps, one other peep that has to be thanked for helping me 😎 is Clan Riffster 😈 who is also AWEsome. Honestly, he 😈 gave us 😎 😁 👍 😎 over 100 hints so no one would leave disappointed from here today!

On the other hand, he 😈 was ALSO the one who put fear of the Dark Wet Biggy Buggy Boggy in our fertile and imaginative minds. 😮 👎 😟 😡 After thinking about it just a little bit longer than necessary, the decision was made to attempt this cache during DAYLIGHT HOURS.

So, there are pluses and minuses to making this a daytime challenge: SEE 😌 the curious cows 😛 and their now-avoidable meadow muffins, SEE their hoof divots and the hog rootings, SEE 😌 the spiders big enough to catch birds from their spider webs in the sky, SEE 😌 how the palmettos had grown higher than most of the reflectors, SEE 😌 how the over 6' height of Burgi Dad 😎 and Krunch Rescue 👍 made a visible difference, SEE 😌 how well-named the eagle-eyed spotter daughter CSI Crue 😁 (that's Cache Scene Investigator Crue to you!) actually is, SEE 😌 how the cache pointing to the final was halfway full of water because of an unexpected wicking action, SEE 😌 how a Diabetes TB had been lingering in the final too, too long, and SEE 😌 how very, very blessed I 😎 am to be sharing this milestone with loved ones and with you readers. SEE 😎 the pics for more details.

Oh, and one more thing; Though I 😎 have logged this in the order as if it's my 2400th Milestone, it actually is 2396 -🤭- okay, so it's the thought that counts, right❔ Wish I'd 😎 gotten caught up on my logs beforehand, but I 😎 was really too busy having fun to do that!

Have a blessed day and a MAH-velous Thanksgiving week. Happy caching ~~

Finally back in FL -👍- where this one belongs!

Burgi Dad and I 😎 😎 had set our goals for our GW6/PacNW Geo-ODD-yssey Road Trip, MONTHS ago: to get five new [B][RED]RED[/RED][/B] states (preferrably EarthCaches) and the so-called GC.com Trifecta (Original Stash, GC.com HQ, and Mission 9, the nearby APE cache), as well as visit GeoMuggle family and friends in the Pacific NW (and just over the border in Canada), all in one week -😁- now we've 😎 😎 been there, done that, and came back on an all day flight yesterday.

One last drop and retrieve for all the TBs and GeoCoins -👍- one more state for you all and we're 😎 😎 home! Have a blessed day. Happy caching ~~

In The Hunt For Red October, one of our All Time Favorite movies, Captain 2nd Rank Vasily Borodin 💀 said: "I would have liked to have seen Montana" or something similar. We've 😎 😎 wanted to do the same ever since -👍- and, as our family motto states, "It's not out of the way if that's where you're going!"

Now it's back to the GeoMobile and on the road again. 👍 Have a blessed day. Happy caching ~~

Welcome to Idaho!

Had to KIDnap Burgi Dad's 😎 little big sister to show her 😚 what our hobby/obsession was all about -😉- turning her 😚 into a KID for the afternoon was easier than expected! This one was a nice challenge to start with -👍- AL-most got a chance to teach the newly named Fjord Woman 😚 what an NHF/DNF was, but figured it out at the last moment. Yep, the log was a pretty full, so I 😎 popped in a suitable temp... right after we 😎 😚 😎 signed it, of course.

Now it's back to the GeoMobile and let's get on the road again. 👍 Have a blessed day. Happy caching ~~

This APE cache has been calling to us 😎 😎 louder and louder, as it is the third and final of the so-called GC.com Trifecta. Burgi Dad 😎 has already posted his abso-LOOT-ly LllOooNnnGggEeeSssTtt log I've 😎 EVER seen him 😎 leave. No worries, though; my verbosity can top his verbiage even with one typing hand tied behind my back! If you want to read the FULL posts, you can link to them:

In that night's brief note I 😎 posted to drop the GeoCoins left in the cache, I 😎 had nothing more to say at the time but, "God is good, all the time; all the time, God is good!" He sure is, and I 😎 thank Him and everyone associated with this cache and with GXing for helping us 😎 😎 make it a GREAT DAY. Have a blessed day. Happy caching ~~
