You are totally missing the opportunity! Now, I don't mean to tell you how to run your advertising dept. or comment on your marketing ideas...or even suggest you do a special promo....I am just saying....you need to listen up!
I have always wanted a movie deal...and I am willing to use Garmin products. I LOVE my Garmin. But with a movie, comes high priced movie stars, and the budget could get high. Of course, I am not disclosing who would play me, but I can assure you, she is gorgeous!
Anyways, It has been suggested that instead of a movie, perhaps it should be a reality show. Now that would trim the budget quite a bit. But with a reality show, you must remember that the characters play themselves! So, before you jump at this idea....you need to see me....And I mean " SEE" me. Could be a problem, but with a good make-up artist, it may work.
The third idea, is just a Garmin promo...And seriously, this is no lie....If we could promote ...." If I can use a Garmin, ANYONE can use a Garmin."
I truly do Love my little Garmin....and I have made so much progress in my Geocaching Life. And you need to consider that all promos do not need to be of such a serious nature. Your Garmin web sites have that stuffy guy, demonstrating the GPS.....when in fact, I would Love to do all that! And think about the Old Spice commercials, if they can have that weirdo ( in a towel...in his bathroom, no less) promoting that product, screaming on a video at the end aisle at every Walmart.....then you could certainly find a good promo for me!
Option 3 is of course, your least expensive route...and I know when the general Geocaching population, gets wind of this...EVERYONE will want a Garmin!
THEN... we can talk reality show. So, have your people, contact my people...Ok, let's be honest right up front...I have no people....so contact me!
Thank You for your time
Sincerly,

Well ain't we something!
Had a short day of caching yesterday....and I can tell you....we are SO excited! The day started off with Peanut in control....she picked the caches and picked the area. I was just riding shot gun, entering the coordinates as we went along. ( I LOVE this Garmin)
Ended up doing a small section of a whole new area....also turns out we found caches from 4 new people. What a day!
One cache in particular, just made our day. We go to this site, and as I am looking around, Peanut continues to read....not at this location.....
turns out we have to go 88 degrees and so many feet to find it.
We scanned the area, read a few logs, recent cachers unable to find it... due to lack of a sufficient Gps... well if my Gps has a degree thingy on it....I am not sure where it was....but I did remember downloading a compass app on my I-Phone, that I had never used. Hmmmm....wonder....well I grab my Phone...and set up the app....in less than 1 minute...we are headed to the cache! I am looking at degrees and Peanut is in control of the feet.
The closer we get to the cache....the more excited we are getting....AND we know we are gonna find it!
FOUND IT! I was so excited...just think, not only getting the cache but using degrees and all on a compass. Now this is a big thing here! I think I had the same feeling, that football players probably have when they make a touch down! We were ecstatic!!!! If I was younger, I would have done a cartwheel!!!
When I got home and was logging my finds....I am reading the description for the first time. The owner reminds us that it is at a big intersection, lots of traffic and to be stealth like.....
Well....I...mean...I am sure... well, you know....we were...ya ...definitely....uhmmm....stealth like... I am sure....I mean....really...I don't think...anyone...uh...ya...noticed us.

GG's and P Nut's caching Adventure !
Decided to do a little caching...and like the Big Guns we decided on a flight path! Haha....well, that only worked for so long. But...we did get in a nice day of about " 25ish caches" !
Seeing our last cache day was with the whole dog poop cache...you should not be surprised that we ran into another dog poop cache....Unfortunately it was NOT part of the cache....But....I FOUND IT!
Immediately we both knew it! And it would not come off my shoe for anything! Even tho, I was sliding my foot along the gravel all the way back to the car....it remained....and so did the smell! UGH!!!
P Nut ( new way to sign her name, when we are in a hurry) wouldn't let me get in the car. Can you believe that sh&% !! Had to do some fast thinking....I grabbed a bottle of water and tried to wash it off.....yea right...not real good luck there. Fortunately we were equipped with paper towels and the such. Good thing we also had alcohol gel, and the next bathroom stop had some spray Lysol or something, I used 1/2 the can!
Smelled better, looked better, all better ! When I got home I ended throwing out all the water bottles...hmmmmm....which one DID I use on my shoe?
Hey...."poop" happens!
Needed to add a little foot note here: ( A lot of our caches today were By Racer) So....Racer ~ You Rock!

Haha....there's the poop!
Decided to invite my "poop master" friend to go find the poop cache. That, of course, would be Peanut. With both of us Nurses, and her having triplets....we think we are well versed in poop!
And so it began....the poop search! 2 adults....looking for poop! And we got it....with the credit to Peanut, who actually spotted it!
Definitely not what we "imagined" we were looking for....that just goes to show....how it is so easy to "read into.... or imagine " a cache. My best hint for this cache...is the owners hint! AFTER finding the cache....I realized he spells it right out for you! So don't worry about the coords...just read, and I mean, just READ the hint!
It was a fun morning...and I have decided that Geocaching is all about the nature trip....just last week I was walking in the woods, listening for bird chirps and this week....I am on all 4's...looking for dog poop! Can't get any closer to nature than that!

So, Here's the poop.....
On my day off...I went looking....for poop! But, the worse part was I couldn't find it! When you are not actually looking for poop...it is everywhere ! I am forever, seeing....smelling....picking up...or stepping in poop. Except for yesterday.
I had some errands to do, so I thought I would pick up a few caches along the way. One of them turns out to be a poop cache. Which is no secret....because it tells you right in the hint, that it is fake dog poop. And a good thing too....because who would ever think that is what you would be looking for! And it is by or on the bridge...so I guess the most likely thought would be a magnetic...or maybe something shoved under something.....but DOG POOP!
So, here I am in the middle of BFE....looking for dog poop. My first thought ( after searching for some time) How do you NOT see poop? Then I was thinking...is this small poop....like poodle poop? Or is this big dog poop....like you know, some huge dog, that almost looks like a pony.
Still no poop. So, I recheck the hint....which by the way has a lot of details....I do the whole...OK, this is North so that is East....then I go to the other end of the bridge to THAT East. Still no poop! Well, the coords were really bouncing....(and that is the story I am sticking too) but I did actually get to where I was, according to MY gps, about 4 feet. So, if I am right in my thinking that is 4 for me, and about 4 for them...so I search about 8 feet. On my knees running my hands through the grass. No Poop! I even got in my car to check the mirror...to make sure...I knew which way was North. NO POOP!
By this time, I am in some taller grass and I am hoping I don't across the "real thing". But No Poop! So, after "quite some time" I think...this just a bunch of s&%# so I left.
I get an e-mail today, the owner took out a friend, and checked out the whole poop deal. Took about 20 mins or so...but it was found! They adjusted the coords a little...and it should be "good to go"
So, in the morning....while "you's all" having your coffee....I will be on the hunt for Poop!
I will keep you "poop posted"
