>I really enjoy reading about how everyone got their geo-

>'orygun jim' and 'orygun connie', two accounts, and as Jim
>was less able to cache and  eventually wasn't able to walk
>to any caches and I wanted him to feel included so logged
>under joint name of 'orygun connie and jim'.   After he
>died I changed again to just 'orygun connie'. Now to the
>orygun part-I am originally from Salem Oregon, and no one
>in Arizona seems to know how to say Oregon correctly. This
>was part of our campaign to help Arizonians say it like an
>Oregonian. It is pronounced just the way it is
>spelled-orygun- OR E Gun.  I am now an Arizona resident but
>will still head to the cooler weather of orygun for the
>summers------(but I plan to get back in time for the
>Halloween event!)
>And to my most memorable cache-It had to be 'Around the
>Pyramid' GCCA2F where Mrs Wrangler and I found the loaded
>Baretta pistol. Second best was getting cache #1000 at the
>'ORIGINAL STASH TRIBUTE PLAQUE' GCGV0P here in Oregon
>recently.
