How cool is this? I released my Hurtigruten Polar Bear in Grand Rapids, and a cacher called fallingaeroplanes picked it up....
And took it to Power Island!
Isn't this a great picture? My bear is now in Mississippi!

Singing the Ambitious Charters Praises - Power Island
How exciting is this? After the fabulous Power Island adventure, I
sent an email to Captain Mike and submitted a testimonial to the Ambitious
Charters website. I can’t swim. I’ve
never been on a boat like the Ambitious and was really nervous. Prior to the trip, I had scoured the sites
looking for words of comfort, so I thought I’d share my A++ experience for
others “in the same boat” (HAR HAR!). He published it!
In case you can’t read the text or
click the link, here’s my testimonial:
“Have I mentioned I’m very nervous
around water? And have never been on a boat smaller than a ferry?
On a geocaching trip of a lifetime to Power Island, I confessed
my anxieties to Captain Mike. With patience and confidence, he explained how to
board the Ambitious, seated me in the cockpit and let me know what to expect.
With great humor and charisma, he gave a guided tour of the bay,
and, before I knew it, I was standing on the sandy beach of Power Island. The
journey there and back was just as enjoyable as the destination.
Thank you, Captain Mike!”
I still stand behind every word.

With Friends Like These..... (a funny story)
Well, here’s a funny story.
Last month TaGeez and I had the pleasure of traveling to
Traverse City and taking a boat over to Power
Island. We were there to grab 4
special caches including Power Island
GC35, one of the oldest active caches in the world!

It was at that cache that TaGeez lost his hat. (sigh) It was a special hat…. His trademark hat.

But time got away from us so he left it
behind. We even added a little RIP
message in our logs.
This week…. Our friends, theGrundalows and afishoutofwater,
went to Power Island and found it.
