Mine did the same thing, except at first the power button wouldn’t turn it off. I had to take out the batteries every time, but at least it was still useable. But then I couldn’t get it to turn on either. Garmin was great about it and sent me a new unit.

If I remember correctly, something like 80 white jeeps have been released in Wisconsin. Page thru the caches for the states (81 pages) and there are only 4 caches that have white jeeps in them.So, where are the rest?
The one I had to place in a cache wound up being taken by Illinoisians (is that a word?) – – so that’s one gone…

We are booked Wed thru Sun, so if anyone else is doing some early camping, let me know!

I couldn’t think up a good story to share, so I’m just telling the truth.

* * * * * * * * * *I took this while geocaching in Kettle Moraine last month.

* * * * * * * * * *Very classy – which is what I like. I’m glad you didn’t put color in it. It seems it doesn’t take much color before the coin starts to look a little cheezy. And even though we are in Wisconsin, I don’t want cheezy.

* * * * * * * * * *Well, I can’t answer pcfrog’s questions. But as far as the design goes, I can bring my geocoin collection to the picnic so everyone can see what other states and organizations have done. I have about 20 different coins and there is a lot of variety. Let me know if anyone wants to see them.

Isn’t that cute, if not sad? A poor little Garmin user can’t adapt to a Magellan. I never seem to have a problem w/ Commander Bob’s Garmin. I guess they just teach us Magellan users to be ready for anything…even a Garmin! …Oops…did I start that war that Chad was trying to avoid?
With 2 different Garmins, we have suddenly and unexpectantly found ourselves the proud owners of a Magellan GPS310. Will we EVER be able to figure it out????

* * * * * * * * * *Anybody seen a rubber chicken originally placed at Pike Powder Hike?
I normally have a layed-back attitude about my TBs, but this one bugs me. I mean it disappeared out of its first cache! And I placed it there to commemorate our 200th find. Alot of people were at that cache that day due to the nearby event – did anyone see it??

* * * * * * * * * *The mileage on my log for the Jeepers event is 42.8, but of course that is as the crow flies. So I would say….48 miles one way, then we walked about 2-3 car widths to Tie’s truck.
Bec – I believe you went to Nebraska with your parents. Please tell me it was for something other than a white jeep. BUT NOT ON THIS THREAD!!!

Off the top of my head….
Michigan
Utah
Georgia
North Carolina
Alaska
California
Colorado
TexasIt does seem unnecessary to reinvent the wheel when so many others have already been through this. I’m sure many of them would be happy to share their experiences with the different companies. Another good place to learn about people’s experiences with having geocoins produced is the GC.com travel bug forum. I know KVCoins has been recently discussed.
