Current Goal

This coin would like to have it's picture taken in all 50 States, and in all 50 State Capitals, plus Washington D.C.! Our first coin with this mission went missing after 0 miles, then our second coin with this mission *also* went missing after 0 miles. I know, it's not exactly the best track record, but we're nothing if not stubborn, so we'll try again with this coin!

About This Item

This 2006 SunshineGang Geocoin is being launched into the wild, in search of good friends and great adventures! Recently, my wife has begun preparations to go back to school for her Masters Degree. As part of her prep, she has to take the MAT test - including learning and memorizing all 50 State Capitals. It has inspired me to release this coin for her - it's goal is to visit and get it's picture taken in all 50 States, and in all 50 State Capitals. It's free to travel here, there, and everywhere along the way - gathering as many miles, stories, and adventures as it can. We hope you enjoy this lil' piece of sunshine, and thanks for keeping it moving!

Passing through Minnesota on our way home. Stopped long enough to find a quick cache and drop off some of our traveling companions.

Wisconsin, we have arrived. This was nice and close to the interstate and still allowed us to get out and stretch our legs and let the travel bugs get some exercise too. Wish we'd had some fishinglure TBs. There was a really nice creek running through here. Cool and overcast today but no rain yet.

Returning to Montana from Maine. Needed to log some travel bugs through IL that we didn't have the first time. It rained most of yesterday. Very uneventful day. Even the travel bugs were quiet - nappped most of the day. Lucky "critters." We were so excited when we saw your Rails to Trails coin listed in the inventory of J's Hollow and sadden that it was indeed NOT there. We thought we could hold two of your coins hostage for a while. Alas, it was not be.

10/9/2007	lofty17 retrieved it from RJ'S Cache	Vermont	Visit Log
We are headed back to Montana from Maine and decided we needed to visit all of the states in this neck of the woods. We swung down to R.I. and then headed north to catch a cache in VT. Our timing was great. The trees look wonderful and everything is lush and green. It does not look like this back home. The travel bugs traveling with us are starting to get on each others nerves (and ours) so we have decided to start setting them free since we won't be doing much caching on the way home. We have lingered too long and must get back.

We are headed back to Montana from Maine and decided to swing by Rhode Island to log another cache and add some miles/states to the travel bugs keeping us company.
