Pathtags

Approved!

March 17, 2009

I’ve just approved my pathtag!

So, in 4-6 weeks, I’ll have my new tag and I can’t wait for it.

I just really hope it’s here in time for the Allegany Geobash in mid-May! That is something else I’m planning for, which I’m having a hard time being patient for.

I also received a notice that my new wood coin signature items have been shipped, so hopefully they’ll be here for this weekend so I can drop a few while out and about grabbing my 1,000th cache.

Let’s just hope spring is here to stay!

Ahhh pathtags… I am so pumped!

And for all those out to have a blast today/tonight, have a Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Hides and finds

March 3, 2009

Just another episode of Hides and Finds to throw some tidbits on my caching items.

Unfortunately, I haven’t been caching in a bit. Real cold weather and work have tied me up. I’m hoping to go find a few Thursday on my day off. Not sure about Saturday as I have some other plans I want to do.

First thing — I placed my order for my pathtag today!

I decided on getting 150 of them as I know I’ll want to trade and then have some to trade in person or give away etc. The wait time for a blueprint is like 2-4 days or something like that. Then I have to approve or deny and go to the next step. If I deny, they try and fix. If I accept, they push it through and 4-6 weeks later, I’ll have my tags.

I’m super pumped!

Also, I’ll be ordering some new signature wood coins soon. However, I’m gonna make them different and through a different company this time. Just to switch things up a little. I like the work this company does, so I’m trying to make it look pretty much like my pathtag, except in one color and it will be on a wood coin.

We’re working on having an event in the area soon. I want to try and get one going so we can all get together. Get us ready for the spring!

Speaking of spring, New York’s Mega Event — the ASP Geobash — is being held May 15-17. I wanted to go last year, but being I’d only been caching like 2 months and change and had only been to one event, I didn’t know much, so I didn’t go.

This year, I’m planning it.

I put in and got vacation time the other day, so I’ll be off the Wednesday before through the Tuesday after. I believe the plan is to head up Thursday and stay through Saturday and then do some caching Sunday before heading home. My goal is to cache, meet a lot of people, trade some coins/pathtags/signature items and mingle a lot. This event looks like a blast.

There’s also a group geocoin. It’s non-trackable, but it will be personalized. I’m planning on buying about 25-30 of them, so I’m looking at around 40 bucks or so. It will be a cool item to trade and collect. I

As for lodging, I’m not much of a camper, but I’ve decided I don’t want to spent $100+ a night on a hotel room, so a couple of us are looking at a cabin. I want to get a three-room one so there’s a little privacy as well as electricity. There won’t be internet, unfortunately, but I’ll have the laptop and can “log” by keeping track of things in a Word file etc. There is free Wi-Fi at the event site, so I can always get there in the morning, sign on my laptop and check e-mail and log any travel bugs and such I grab or place. That way, at least, those are where they need to be.

The cabin I am looking at is near the shower/bathroom area, so it wouldn’t be a far walk if needing to use the facilities. And, it’s like $90 a night, which isn’t bad. And if we have 3-4 people in there, even better. Still, even if two, 45 bucks a night isn’t too shabby. The best part is that we’ll be in the park (saving money there) and it will be somewhat like roughing it! I’m sure it will leave me with a lot of photo opportunities, too!
Anyway, that’s it for now. I’ll be back with some shortened versions of the cache trips we’ve taken recently.

More later!

My very own pathtag!

February 27, 2009

I collect signature items. Wood coins. Anything else. The poker trips. But I’ve gotten into pathtags a bit. Though I don’t have many, I really like them. So, after receiving one not too long ago, I knew I wanted to make my own. They are somewhat affordable and of my refund from Uncle Sam this year, this is going to be the one treat to myself (that and a new external hard drive for my photos).

I got some help from Lee over at LEEsign and he did a wonderful job with this design.

Anyway, I wanted to share the design with people:

I also heard my Uncle Sam cash should be in my account early next week, so if all goes well, I’ll hopefully be ordering them soon and getting them ready for trading and such! I can’t wait to get this rolling!

More later!

Harper is counting down to Santa Paws! You know, Harper is counting down to Santa Paws! 

You know, of course, Santa Paws travels with Santa Clause, making sure to find treats and toys for all the good little doggies! (We know they are all deserving, right?) So, Harper put out some milk for the big guy, carrots for Rudolph and the reindeer, and special cookies for Santa Paws! She is ready!

I look at her and sometimes still can’t believe I look at her and sometimes still can’t believe I have her. It’s been a year and four months and she makes me smile and laugh more each day. It’s amazing how much a dog changes your look on life, and how much joy they can bring.

This one is recent from the courthouse square in Delhi. We had some pretty good fall colors this year.

I had Harper so not a lot I could do, but I managed to get the cart off the chair. (See second photo) This was in a local park.

A video looking at my first year and a half of owning a golden retriever, my first dog. It's had its ups and downs, but I've truly loved the ride and look forward to the future.

I hate being in front of the camera, but also realize sometimes it's not the worst thing in the world. So, I'm getting better with it. Week 4's theme was all about us and having us in front of the camera, so I tried to come up with a creative way to do it.
