Current Goal

To visit all 13 Canadian provinces & territories!  Yes, I realize it might be a challenge for it to reach Nunavut since there are only a handful of caches there, but one can dream!  :-)

Pour visiter les 13 provinces et territoires canadiens! Oui, je me rends compte qu'il pourrait être difficile de se rendre au Nunavut car il n'y a qu'une poignée de géocaches là-bas, mais on peut rêver!​  :-)

As it reaches each province/territory, I'll check them off below:

À mesure qu'il atteint chaque province/territoire, je vais les vérifier ici:

Alberta - ✔ Jun 2018
British Columbia - not yet
Manitoba - not yet
​New Brunswick - ✔ Jul 2018
Newfoundland & Labrador - ✔ Jul 2018
​Northwest Territories - ✔ Jun 2018

(Be sure to hide the tracking code when taking any pics).

(Assurez-vous de cacher le code de suivi lors de la prise de photos).

(Also, please don't "collect" this trackable, as that will take it out of circulation and spoil the fun.  PLEASE do not take this travel bug unless you'll faithfully log it and take it to another cache.  I can't tell you how many trackables I've released which have gone missing or stagnant, often after just being in one cache.  Please respect the purpose of travel bugs / trackables.  Thank you).

(Aussi, n'hésitez pas à "collecter" ce trackable, car cela va le sortir de la circulation et gâcher le plaisir. Ne prenez pas ce bug de voyage à moins que vous ne vous identifiez fidèlement et ne le prenez pas dans un autre cache. Mes trackables ont disparu ou stagnent, souvent après avoir été dans un cache. Respectez le but des bogues / trackables de voyage. Merci).

About This Item

Canadian Sunset

Continuing my theme of naming most of my trackables after songs, "Canadian Sunset" is a song written by Eddie Heywood (music) and Norman Gimbel (lyrics) and popularized in an instrumental version by arranger Hugo Winterhalter (with Eddie Heywood on piano) in 1956, reaching #2 on the U.S. charts.  (Vocalist Andy Williams also released a version the same year, which reached #7 in the U.S.).  The song has been covered by many other artists, including Floyd Cramer, Sam Cooke and Dean Martin.

After carrying this TB around for a little while to let it visit a few caches (while deciding on exactly where to release it), I decided to send this off to some geocaching friends in Canada to help it get a head start on its goal.  :-)

Thanks, "Teamronsig!" :-)

Time to part ways. I got you to Calgary so you can log another province. Put you on a divided highway heading towards BC. Hope you get to check a few provinces off. Dropped you in a really cool travel bug utility shed that has 162 likes. Safe travels.

Retrieve It from a Cache 3/28/2018 ChickadeeCacher retrieved it from Cat In The Hat Letterbox Hybrid Ontario, Canada   Visit Log

Introducing a friend to geocaching today. Stopped by a great cache and picked you up from Cat in the Hat Letterbox in Val Caron, Ontario. I have s trip coming up soon that will take me close to Quebec. I’ll try and hit that before I visit in Calgary. I’ll try to add a few checks to the list. For now a Canadian sunset for you taken by my daughter Geomarls.
