A Pay it Forward Geocoin cache for T, of 3T's&aG

I have an individual i would like to nominate as a pay it forward.

She is a great person who gives so unselfishly and is never stepping back allowing others to do what she sees is something that has to be done.

She has always stepped forward to our caching community here in Manitoba and always willing to organize events, willing to participate in any visitor event where someone wants to go caching in the city of Winnipeg.

Then the fact that I believe she is a young mother who is totally devoted to her family.

She provides unselfishly and never asks why.

When I as a new cacher, from another community came to the city and got my 100th cache, she went out and purchased at her expense my 100th find coin, and then had it engraved and then unselfishly placed hers and her friend name on it, then gave it to me as a Christmas gift.

So if I may, I would love to nominate 3T's&aG.

Ok, that's a cool little park. Large mental note on biking here come summer. Looks like there could be all kinds of interesting trails to weave through.

BUT... on with the cache! Started out not being sure where to park, since someone decided to park on the wrong side of the road a bit away. Way to look at those no-parking signs fella ToungeOut. I parked a little bit away to avoid other cars needing to weave around mine and illegal-parker, and off I went. Unfortunately, today I happened to forget to bring my Safeway-brand instant winter boots... so as I trudged on, I hoped that geotrails were abound.

I quickly found that someone who was wearing showshoes walked a rather weaving path through the trees. Following the path, I eventually zig-zagged my way to the cache location. Although, looking at other footprints on either side of this path... it would appear that the snow is actually quite deep had I not been path-walking.

After testing a bit, it would appear that the packedness of the snow could barely hold me up as is. Yay for being a 130 pound twig ToungeOut! I get the feeling many others would have sank into the deep white.

Nonetheless... I found the cache. Nice hiding spot in there too. Surprised to see that there was THREE trackable items hiding in that little container. I snagged the larger of the coins (seeing as I generally like to only have one TB on me at any given time), and off I went.

I as well give my thanks T. Also, I shalt thank slippery_1, grnbrg, MHz and ertyu for giving us a nice cache in a nice location Smile. And while I'm at it, I'd like to thank PurpleMonkeyDishwasher, GirlWithNoName, Blackcat Firecracker, and WestStevo for introducing me to geocaching. Yay all around BigSmile.
