Virtual Cache Credit    So in January of this year I was awarded a Virtual Cache as part of a limited release of Virtuals to be created between January 17, 2024 and January 17, 2025. Only 4,000 cache owners were given this opportunity to hide a Virtual Cache.  I was pretty excited to receive this, and already knew where I would place this. Back in August 2015 while in Vegas for the Magic Live Convention, I went to a virtual called "Las Vegas Money Makers"  It was a large bronze statue of Siegfried and Roy and one of their tigers. It was in front of the Mirage Hotel ..read more

 Las Vegas So I went to Vegas for the second time this year, at the beginning of August for my Favorite Magic Convention called "Magic LIVE"  It was an awesome 8 days and I was only able to grab a couple of Earthcaches one day.

Besides being a huge hotel and casino with several bars and lounges, and restaurants of every flavor within, it also has a food court, a 52 lane bowling ..read more

 Fraser Valley Cache Bash #7 Was able to go find a few caches for the annual FVCB. This is an annual event where several caches are released on the same day, and many cachers head out seeking them and trying to be the first to find them. The caches for the Cache bash are from Pitt Meadows to Hope. This year I got 3 FTF's and 2 STFs before I had to come back home and get ready for a show.  One of them was a cool gadget type of cache as you can see in the picture.
