Maple Leaf Mailbag

I managed to get mentioned on that short wave broadcast once again - the Maple Leaf Mailbag from Radio Canada International in Montreal. Go to this page and then click on "Click here" for the latest program. This will get you the program for December 9, 2007. I am mentioned a bit past the midway point in the 1 hour show. I listen to this show every week now because it is common for them to briefly discuss geocaching.

If you are reading this and want to listen but the latest program is not for 12/9, then go to the archives and select the 12/9 show.

Here is one of the pictures I sent to the show.



This is a collection of travel bugs that I had in my possesion a while back. I moved them on to new caches after I was done admiring them for a few days. That is, except for the "250 Finds Geo-Achievement Geocoin" which my wife, Heather, bought for me to celebrate my 250th cache find. I will be keeping that one. As of this post, the total is 372 caches and the next geocoin available as a milestone is for 500 caches.

The other ones in the picture are "Fearless Leader" of Bullwinkle fame. I found it in a cache called "Lady Coot 125" up in the mountains. The one with the geocache logo on it is called "Handcrafted by geotrash". We found that one in Lone Tree, Colorado which is adjacent to Highlands Ranch. The other geocoin in the photo is called "Man! is it HOT!". This was found up in Conifer, Colorado in the mountains. You can also see the copy tag with Marc's travel bug and my GPS receiver pointing to my next cache to find. The frog is what I often put in caches - sortof a trademark. I have placed at least 50 of these frogs in caches all over the place.
