[Az-Geocaching] YJTB's

Mon, 16 Aug 2004 00:19:10 -0700 (MST)

Amen, Brian, well said.
I need to go to bed, but the water polo coverage is too interesting!

By the way, while supplies last, any person....oh wait the phone.

OK, I'm back a half hour later, I had to do a search call-out for a
lost woman in Groom Creek.

Anyway, while supplies last, any one with a geocaching account can
contact Groundspeak and request ONE YJTB. (I gave mine away at the
Event in Prescott.)

Gotta run folks, gotta run this search

take care,
Trisha
