Discovered It 9/16/2023 MiriCach discovered it   Visit Log

TL;DR: We don't have the trackable (and feel sorry for you if it means it is still missing), but stumbled upon its discovery code.

The story: I discovered this trackable/coin when I cracked the cache "Msportis Coinlihaus der 2." and then was able to reverse-engineer some Coins/TBs of the owner Msporti as well. By pure chance / luck while testing out possibilities for this I also came across this TB/coin. We hope that it's okay that we discover it, if not, feel free to delete this log. TFTC/TFTT 😉

Grab It (Not from a Cache) 9/10/2002 Team Sunspot grabbed it   Visit Log

At 5:45 pm on September 7, 2002 the Liberty Lady was handed over to the New York City firemen at Co. 24 Hook and Ladder on 31st St between 7th and Broadway, Manhattan.
The firemen were, not surprisingly, very gracious.
The Lady spent her last week traveling from Auburn, NY to Corning, NY and then to NYC by way of PA and NJ. (She did get to stop long enough to see the Broadway show Mama Mia and enjoyed it immensely.)
As we have one of those old camera's that still require film development the photos won't be on-line until this weekend.
It was fun and will be a lasting geocaching highpoint.

Team Sunspot will take the Lady to NYC on
Sept. 7, 2002! We travelled from Corning to Rochester to Auburn to pick up the Lady and back to Corning, What a trip. We have not decided how she will arrive at a final destination. Would be great if we can find a cache and have a New Yorker (city) pick her up. She will definately visit Manhattan this weekend though and find a place to stay.

Lady needs to get to N.Y.C. before 9-11

Write note 8/19/2002 timparenti posted a note for it   Visit Log

We left this in south-western NY state. It has only about 450 miles to go if you follow the interstates, which means at this rate, it might get to NYC by November or December. Unfortunately, 9/11 is only a few weeks away and it probably won't get there in time--but then again, someone could come by on a business trip or something.... Ah, the endless possibilities...
