4 of my caches for the event have been approved

The fifth cache has been placed too near one of Poohma's.  I'll be either working with Poohma regarding this or may have to move the cache.  They beat me to the registration.

All four of the caches Jenn and I submitted have been approved. That's because they're in cool locations that no one else would think to hide a cache in!  ;D

Maybe I'll start a list on the event cache listing today.

Oh, and just for fun...

After help from Poohma, (Thanks Poohma) my fifth cache has been approved.  So all five are ready to go and will be released on October 16.

Thanks again to Poohma for helping me get this cache approved.


By the way,  shroomAzoom, I know where one of your pictures is in Westfort

We have four caches out.. the first three are approved and the last we still have to move the final because we are too close to another cache.  Hoping to do that today or tomorrow and hopefully get it approved.  It's definitely not easy finding areas that other people haven't taken! 

GC1GTY4  Crabby in the Fall
GC1GTY7  Choo Choo
GC1GTYD  The Cedars
GC1GTXP  Signs in the Park

We have placed two caches.
Tried to do a third but did not work out. You can guess why.

We have placed GC1H0HN-Dr. Albert Allin Park today and are awaiting approval.  Our caches GC1GVHT and GC1GVMT were not approved and we cannot re-locate.  Also, our multi-cache GC1GVHB needs to be moved and we're working on it.  So, we have one approved for sure and maybe one or two more...we're waiting.   Should have started placing these caches sooner.  Ours were too close to caches placed by jleecollins, shroomAzoom and 2 of junglebus.

I could probably help out but I have a slight problem with being 300 km to the East.

The next time I am in Thunder Bay will be October 17 in the evening.

I had a quick trip to Thunder Bay on Thursday last week for my cardiac stress test, and may have been able to do something then, but now I won't be back in Thunder Bay until late on the 17th.

Hey, no big deal....we have approval on one and maybe we'll get the other 2 as well.  I have a feeling there's going to be plenty of caches to find.  Maybe we should give a half bonus point for trying!  Oh, and Jim, gas prices are down....couldn't you drive up just to move yours??!
