Current Goal

 
  This TB is racing some friends, to see who can gather the most points, beginning on March 24, 2012 at Spring Slingshot Event 2012 (GC3CA47)  and ending one year later.  Please help me beat them by adhering to the rules below and moving it along as far and as quick as possible.  Mainly, I just want to beat my super-competitive husband (the other half of JuneandJohnny).   So, here's the guidelines:

  • Dipping is not allowed. TB must be picked up and dropped from one cache to another.
  • 1 point awarded for each Traditional Cache the TB is dropped in.
  • 2 points awarded for each Multi Cache the TB is dropped in.
  • 3 points awarded for each Unknown Cache the TB is dropped in.
     
  • 1 point for every full star difficulty rating of any cache that TB is dropped in.
  • 1 point for every full star terrain rating of any cache that TB is dropped in.

     
  • 5 points for photo taken with cacher (EaSy PoiNtS!)
  • 1 point for every 10 miles traveled from cache to cache.
  • 2 points for each new state the TB visits.
  • 10 points for each new country the TB visits.

About This Item

100_5458

A 2 inch pin with a picture of Johnny and June (with flowers in her hair and wearing her favorite color, "June Blue") on their wedding day, March 1, 1968.



SPECIAL CHALLENGES ALONG THE WAY:
  1. In the month of April 2012, get me to Massachusetts in a hurry for a bonus 70 POINTS!!!
  2. During May 2012 I need to cross the border into Mexico for 55 POINTS!! Take my picture in Mexico for 10 POINTS....and put on a sombrero in the pic to get 15 POINTS!  C'mon, Mexico is so nice in May, don't you think?
  3. For June 2012 we will remember the infamous Hatfield-McCoy feud of the West Virginia/Kentucky area. Move on back close to home (Lincoln County, WV for juneandjohnny), to anywhere in Logan County, WV (where Hatfield patriarch Devil Anse is buried) for 81 POINTS (Hatfield's age at the time of his death). If you choose to align with those McCoy scoundrels you can get 89 points for dropping into Pike County, KY (age and burial place of McCoy leader, Ole Ran'l). Now what're ya waitin' on?!! Git to it!
  4. EMERGENCY! EMERGENCY! If you pick me up during the month of August 2012, whatever you do, DO NOT DROP me into another cache!  Those tricky race officials have made this month's challenge an awful one.  So, go against your best-caching instincts and hang onto me until September 1, 2012....you can do it....I believe in you.  If you resist the urge, I will garner 88 points.  Be strong and HaPpY CaChiNg!

Set up a quick and easy new cache near home to garner some extra points, here in the home stretch. Woot woot! It's not been published yet. I'll add another note when it is; just wanted to do it while I had time. WHEEGG GC483X6

🙂 Thanks for the find! My youngest son (Kyler) and I retrieved the Darlin' Companion from the Southglenn CC Cache! We hope you earn extra points for the picture and for moving it! Good luck in the Spring Slingshot 2012! Hopefully we found it before the competition ends! Cute couple by the way!
