I have been caching since October 10, 2015 and at the time of this placement I have 1901 finds with this being my 45th hide. I have made a lot of new friends through geocaching and explored places I never knew existed. My time as a fellow geocacher has been exciting and I'm learning new things everyday to keep this so thrilling. This cache is being placed to thank everyone I've come across in the last year who shares this same enjoyment. You might find your name on the list here because you're geo-nick has a number in it. All local geocachers have made an impact on my life and I can't list you all but please know you're all important to me. From the bottom of my camoflauged heart, I thank you! Cheers!

What a fun and unusual puzzle! Although this is only my first year geocaching, I do recognize most user names on this list, as I have found several of their caches and have even met some of them at events around town. When I got stuck, I just looked at the log entries, as most are here, ha. The finish for this mystery was a bit undramatic, but I'll take the smiley.
Thanks BroncoCole for creating this cache!
Cheers.

This was a must get since the puzzle has been solved for quite sometime. Finally my Doordash route took us right by this final and had to snag the find and sign our name. Love the puzzle. Only a few more of yours to get. Ok maybe a lot more but who is counting .

Some may say we are crazy, but this game/hobby is one of the greatest gifts. Who doesn’t love a great scavenger hunt. Hiking, biking or driving hundreds of miles to sign our name on a piece of paper. This brings us a lifetime of joy.

Thanks for placing this cache and keeping our recreation going. SL/with PoshCacher/MagicCacher.Tftc

It was a BroncoCole day! Before his event tomorrow while he's back in town I wanted to grab as many of the remaining caches of his as I could. I had six on the target list. This was the sixth of six and also a (minor) milestone cache!

I had solved this quite a while ago because, well, it's partly about me!! Which I feel very honored by. I have enjoyed not nearly enough caching days with BroncoCole and was happy for him but bummed when I learned he'd be skipping town. But I'm looking forward to catching up with him tomorrow.

I've now found 34 of his hides and they've all been based on a unique puzzle or have been a very clever container. Or sometimes both! We appreciate YOU BroncoCole and all that you've brought to the game. Happy hunting!

Thanks for the hide BroncoCole
